Save Time and Money with the Tech Helpline

Louisiana REALTORS® • March 29, 2021

Today, technology plays a significant role in REALTORS®’ lives more than ever before. And this trend will not be slowing down. While it can make our lives simpler, more secure and more efficient, it only works when it works. Have there been instances where fully-working devices and tools made a difference in responding to a lead or closing a deal? Home office set-ups and smartphone malfunctions can completely ruin a deal and take up more hours of your day. The time and expertise it takes to attempt to troubleshoot and problem solve can make all the difference in the hours you put into your clients.


As a REALTOR®, you have a fiduciary responsibility to provide the most knowledgeable and expert service for your clients. Often, your ability to do that is based on access to reliable technology.
