The latest trend noticeable in the Pune real estate market has created a flutter. With top-rated property agents going online with Monest, the market looks poised for a paradigm shift in the ways of conducting real estate business online.

Lalji Tandon, a reputed agent in Pune, explains his shift to the Monest platform in simple terms: “I am a genuine property agent with decades of experience and I always needed a platform that did not make people grow suspicion of my intention. With Monest, buyers are convinced of my sincerity and integrity. They know, they are not dealing with any fraudulent person. Monest has given me the space to conduct business in a transparent manner.”

Mr Mohit Sancheti, co-founder, Monest, confirms the fears of many top-rated agents who had to deal with portals where all sorts of agents co-existed: “Our job was to bring the pool of best agents, in terms of service and integrity on the same platform so that buyers get the best and these genuine agents also get clients of their choice.This big shift to join the Monest bandwagon was a foregone conclusion because of the inherent strength of the model.”

With more and more top-rated agents quitting from other property portals to join Monest, where they get a face and an identity, the online property portals are left wondering how to keep agents on board. As these platforms led to a severe loss of the image of agents, they are now wary of losing their reputation and that seems to be improving through Monest.

Any top-rated agent who joins Monest finds his fellow agents making queries about the business potential. With a steady rise in lead conversions, they are eager to migrate to this platform and devote their full time here instead of wasting it elsewhere.

Anish Irani, a property agent from the suburbs, says, “I have now gone online with Monest and it is the best decision so far. I am flooded with queries and they are all from genuine buyers. No wastage of time and the approach is professional. Client interaction has improved and I can rely on technology in a big way. This allows me to function with greater professionalism.”

With the application of technology in a major way, Monest has shown that real estate business will rely heavily on this aspect in the near future. Already, chatbots and artificial intelligence are a reality. So Monest has given it a priority. There are more technological improvements on the anvil, to make it easy for the agent and the client,to have a seamless interface without any glitches.

Every working day witnesses a significant influx of top-rated agents on the Monest space and this is growing rapidly. If this trend continues to gather momentum, the day is not far when Monest will be the first choice of every leading agent. In terms of credibility and performance, going online with Monest has, therefore, emerged as the best business decision of any real estate agent could possibly make to ramp up his prospects in the competitive property market.
