WHY DO REALHOUND'S CLIENTS LOVE REALHOUND^®?

BECAUSE REALHOUND IS BETTER!

NOTHING EXISTS LIKE REALHOUND.  There is nothing even remotely similar to it.  If your company has forced you into a  standardized CRM system designed for the lowest common denominator, then you need to switch to Realhound, right now.  It's your business.  Your clients. And your life.  Don't waste your time away using something that's designed for dumb people.

WHO USES REALHOUND^®?

THE BEST BROKERS WHO NEED THE BEST DATABASE.

Really smart commercial brokers use Realhound.  About half percent of our clients work with Multifamily properties, and the next forty percent work with Office, Industrial, Retail, Hotels, Mobile Home Parks, Casinos, and Land.  The other ten percents are leasing brokers and owners/managers.  

WHY IS REALHOUND^® SO MUCH BETTER?

BECAUSE YOU BUILT IT.

The commercial Broker market is really small.  Boutique. It's not a market that many software companies would choose to verticalize.  And the ones that do create terrible applications that are frustrating, slow, and don't meet your needs.  Software for commercial real estate brokers is all we do.  That's our specialty.

WHERE DOES REALHOUND^® PERFORM ITS MAGIC?

EVERYWHERE.

Most of our clients prefer keeping their second most important asset, there database of properties and contacts, very close to them, running Realhound on their own computer.  Their most important assset is this intelligence.  Realhound is was designed by, and built by, wickedly smart people.  Most of its functionality can be traced back to an specific request from one of our clients.  So keeping their data as close to their minds as possible is important.

However, if you prefer to keep your data on a server, or the web, that's fine too.  If you want to use a native app on your iPhone and access the save database resident on your computer (that works both online and offline), that fine too.  It works great a PC or Mac.  That screenshots below are all from a Mac.  

WHAT DOES REALHOUND^® LOOK LIKE ON AN PHONE?

A MESSAGE FROM REALHOUND'S^® FOUNDER, ANDREW BLOUNT.

Realhound is the BEST SOFTWARE for Commercial Real Estate PROPERTY AND CONTACT Management.  Whether you are a broker, a lender, an owner, or a manager, Realhound will dramatically improve your business!  The bottom line, Realhound will make you money and save you an immense amount of time.

In 1996, I invernted Apartment Professional.  It was a state-of-the-art application for professionals who needed to track and analyze apartment data.  In 2000, I added functionality for commercial properties, too, including Office, Industrial, Retail, Hotels, and Land.  I also renamed the product to Realhound.  “Real” for Real Estate.  “Hound” for a friendly, faithful helper.  In 2006, I rebuilt the entire commercial real estate program from the ground up to incorporate contact management into its impressive features for handling property data. I’ve been leading the industry on functionality ever since!

Realhound is my baby.  Over the years, I’ve created other fantastic software, yet Realhound has always been the apple of my eye.  Its ability to make people successful is unsurpassed.  I designed every feature in Realhound based on suggestions from users.  And not just any users, but the best, most successful commercial real estate professionals on the planet!  It is designed to make you more successful.

I’ve written every line of code for Realhound myself, over 500,000 of them.  Today, besides managing Realhound, I was the Mayor of Laguna Hills, California. I ran a team of over 4,000 people at RealPage before we sold to Thoma Bravo, and I own a bioelectronic medicine start-up named Biocurrent. I do expert witness work and some other consulting and software development.  Over the last 25 years, I’ve spent a good portion of every day improving Realhound and will continue to do so into the future. 

Realhound organizes your important information better than any other application.  With Realhound, there is a single box for you to search all of your contacts.  If you search for “William,” you will find anyone named “Bill” in your database.  It even tracks historical apartment rents, office and industrial leases, buyer’s needs, documents, and marketing activity.  Everything you do as a commercial real estate professional can be enhanced with Realhound!  Realhound will give you more time to devote to making calls and meeting with clients.

The design of the contact and property screens is of special importance.  They give you all of the most important information you repeatedly use throughout your day, right in one place.  These screens make it easy for you to see all of the properties that a person is related to and all of the other people you know in their company, plus your notes, right on one screen.  In most other programs, you must go from screen to screen or tab to tab trying to put together information for a call…  not with Realhound!

In Realhound, you only enter data once.  If you have a note you want to be linked to multiple contacts and multiple properties, you only enter it once.  If you have a contact that owns ten properties and manages three more, you only enter them once.

There is nothing “clunky” about Realhound.  It is a speed machine! The Realhound database has been optimized to deliver the results that you search for the most the fastest.  Whether you have one user or hundreds of users, Realhound moves with blazing speed from contact to property to contact.  Things like automatically saving data as you enter it, instead of having to press some “Save” button that looks like it’s from 1986, add up to many hours of saved productivity every week.  With Realhound, you simply do your job faster.

Realhound automates many important tasks that would normally take you a lifetime.  From tracking Buyers' Needs to automatically generating Marketing Campaign Reports, Realhound makes you look better to your clients and helps you bring in more revenue.  

There is no other application that comes within a hundred miles of touching Realhound’s amazing functionality, ease of use, and SPEED!

But wait, there’s more!  I am constantly improving Realhound. Many things around us change, like Mapping solutions, and Realhound has to be updated to work with the newest and greatest add-ins.  And even with its gigantic set of features, our clients come up with more ways for us to help them use their data.  So, there are often new features that provide improved functionality.

With Realhound, you can import data from lots of popular formats, which makes getting started easy.  Of course, you own your data.  And it’s easy to share with people on your team, regardless of whether they are always connected to the Internet or not.  There are many back-end bells and whistles for doing things like automatically finding and merging duplicates in your database (have you gotten the idea that I hate duplicate data!). 

Do you make phone calls?  You better if you want to be successful in commercial real estate.  Realhound turns you into a calling machine!  You no longer have to hand track your list of calls, fill out call reports, or remember if someone has been called recently.  Realhound does all of this for you to concentrate on your calls!  Realhound’s calling features are unsurpassed and unavailable in any other CRM software.  I guess they, my competitors, just don’t care about the same thing I do… delivering software that makes my clients more money!

In addition to tracking your contacts, properties, and notes, Realhound provides industry-leading financial analysis tools.  With Realhound, you can instantly determine the value of a property using everything from a CAP Rate to a Leveraged IRR.  You see a sensitivity analysis based on varying prices and can escalate things like property taxes into the future.  For the commercial guys, you can run a Lease vs. Buy analysis and Stacking Charts.  All of this is built right into Realhound utilizing your data.

There are only a few things you need to know to get a semi-truck load of productivity out of Realhound.  If you can use Google’s search box, you can use Realhound.  It’s also important to know how to double-click because your data is automatically linked together, and double-clicking activates those links.  

Supporting our clients is even more important than selling new licenses.  So much so that Realhound’s sales and support phone numbers are the very same extension.  My salespeople are not the high-pressure, burn-and-churn robots that typically sell software. Instead, they are the very same wonderful, warm human beings that walk you through how to use Realhound and answer any questions that may come up.  When you call for support, we answer as much as possible via the telephone and then log right into your computer (only with your permission) to fix the problem for you!  Now that’s what I call service!

So I’m sure you’re wondering what this magical, income-increasing tool will cost you. How much does this extraordinary power set you back?  When Realhound first came out, the price was $1,495 per user, and I had many takers at that price.  I had many happy users who belonged to an elite club of ultra-successful commercial real estate professionals.  Over the years, I have wanted to make it available to everyone in the commercial real estate industry, so I dropped the price an astounding 56%!  First, I changed it to $995, which more than doubled my user base, and now after achieving significant adoption, it’s $695.  Most of our users earn $1m-$5m per year.  They will tell you that Realhound was integral to getting and keeping them there.  Ironically, they don’t want you to use Realhound because you may be competing with them.

Most importantly, I never nickel-and-dime you!  All of our stellar support is included with your license.  Our training sessions are included too.  There is no per-call cost like there is with most CRM applications.  If you need help, we will help you!

A word of caution…  Realhound isn’t for everybody.  If you are fine tracking and only knowing peoples’ phone numbers, use Sale Force, Google Contacts, or Outlook.  Don’t license Realhound.  Realhound is designed for high earners, the top commercial real estate brokers.  It’s designed for people who need a ludicrously fast way of keeping track of all the nuances of their business and using that information to maximize their performance for their clients and, thus, their income.  If you’re not interested in actually working, then get something else, or just use Excel.  Making money in commercial real estate isn’t easy.  You have to be smart, disciplined and have the right tools.  Realhound is for the top producers, the people who either are or want to be making eight-plus figures a year.  Realhound is for people who tend to be successful in their lives.  If you’re just playing around, then Realhound isn’t for you.

So, for you winners out there, now is the time for you to transform your commercial real estate career and bring your income to the next level.  Every minute you wait is a more lost opportunity.  Whether you are the top dog or new to the junkyard, Realhound is here to help.  Sign up for your license right now, and I’ll welcome you to my Realhound family!
