The Challenge

NexusRealty, a Dubai-based real estate agency with 60 agents, managed leads from 5 different portals (Property Finder, Bayut, Dubizzle, Rightmove, and website) in separate Excel files per agent. Lead response time averaged 6 hours. Agent performance was invisible to management. Listing management required manual updates across all 5 portals separately.
