Elegran has been awarded the Most Innovative Brokerage award in the country for 2017 by Inman News, announced at the Inman Connect San Francisco conference. While Manhattan is one of the most lucrative markets in the United States, this is the first time any New York City firm has won this prestigious national award.
Elegran was recognized for its team culture, and building proprietary technology solutions that allow real estate agents to work more efficiently, using a platform called Alfred that lays the foundation for the future of real estate. Alfred is a sophisticated listing and data management platform, that communicates via API to a suite of proprietary technology solutions, including auto-generated marketing collateral, smart-targeted direct mail, automated lead generation and nurture programs, seamlessly integrated with a real-estate customized Salesforce CRM. With an in-house development team and an unmatched marketing-to-sales support ratio, this innovative technology stack allows Elegran agents to be 7-8x as profitable than the average NYC real estate salesperson, and has driven Elegran's incredible growth over the last 5 years.
Inman News is real estate's technology premier publication, and runs the largest conference in the world for industry professionals. The Inman Innovator Awards are held yearly, with nominees presented in six categories of firms, technology and individual innovators, from what Inman calls "The visionaries, the forward-thinking, the stubborn, the obsessed, the tech-savvy, the creative minds always pushing boundaries."
Selected from fewer than 50 leading brokerage finalists announced back in June, Elegran was named as the winner at the Inman Connect conference at the Hilton San Francisco in Union Square on Tuesday, August 9th, surpassing some of the most tech-savvy and successful firms in the country.
Michael Rossi, the CEO of Elegran Real Estate, attended Inman Connect conference to accept the Most Innovative Brokerage award on behalf of the Elegran team. "Elegran is incredibly proud to achieve such a prestigious honor, highlighting a successful and unique strategy of investing in team culture, and building an unparalleled foundation of technology and marketing around them." Said Rossi, "We're dedicated to investing in the success of every member of our team, allowing every agents to deliver the highest level of service to their clients."
