In the fast-paced world of real estate, efficient office management is crucial for success. Real estate agents need comprehensive tools that streamline transactions, simplify bookkeeping, and provide reliable support. In this article, we will explore how Loft47, a cutting-edge software solution, has revolutionized real estate office management. We will delve into its key features, the benefits it offers, and why it has become a go-to choice for many real estate agents and offices. But first, let’s hear from Pam from RE/MAX Medalta on her experience with back office solutions and how they compare to Loft47.

Customer Insights: Pam from RE/MAX Medalta

To gain deeper insights into the customer experience with Loft47, we spoke with Pam Schaufert, the lead accounting resource from RE/MAX Medalta. RE/MAX Medalta maintains a healthy office with 21 Agents out of Medicine Hat Alberta. She shared her thoughts on the program and highlighted its benefits.

“Working with all of the staff that do support has been wonderful, and I would highly recommend this program to any real estate agents’ offices out there. It just makes your life so much easier.” – Pam, RE/MAX Medalta

Pam emphasized the exceptional support provided by Loft47, praising their responsiveness and problem-solving abilities. She also highlighted the program’s affordability, portability, and user-friendly interface as key advantages.

The Evolution of Back Office at Medalta

Pam saw many back-office transitions during her relationship with the Brokerage. When she started in 1995 the office used an old DOS program that was “very painful, very slow, and very hard to work with.”

After being introduced to Lonewolf, the office transitioned in 2004.

The transition to Lonewolf was a success for RE/MAX Medalta, who now had access to a comprehensive suite of office management tools. The integrated bookkeeping feature allowed them to easily manage transactions and keep track of their finances.

As the years went by, Lonewolf continued to improve and expand its offerings. However, with the addition of new programs and rising costs, RE/MAX Medalta started to face challenges. Their account manager eventually left the company, and the support began to decline.

“The cost of the program kept rising and rising. They kept wanting to add more programs to the program and then support after. The support just went downhill.” – Pam, RE/MAX Medalta

The lack of support became a significant frustration for RE/MAX Medalta, causing delays in bookkeeping and unanswered questions. The company needed a solution that would not only provide cost-effectiveness but also deliver exceptional support.

Enter Loft47: A New Beginning

During this difficult period, Tracy Simmons reached out to RE/MAX Medalta with exciting news about Loft47. Intrigued by the promise of going paperless and the potential for enhanced functionality, RE/MAX Medalta decided to make the switch.

“So now we decided a change to Loft47. Not to lie, it did take a little time to get the program to work, you know, the way we wanted it to. But that happens with all new programs.” – Pam, RE/MAX Medalta

Although it took some time to adapt to the new system, RE/MAX Medalta appreciated the portability and affordability of Loft47. The program’s flexibility allowed for seamless remote work, a crucial factor in the post-COVID era.

Today, RE/MAX Medalta continues to use Loft47, taking advantage of its cutting-edge features and reliable support. From simplifying paperwork to streamlining transactions, Loft47 has revolutionized real estate office management for this company and many others like it. View the full interview here:
