Florida Realtors® Tech Helpline Adds 50,000+ More Real Estate Pros in 60 Days

From mid-November 2019 to mid-January 2020, Tech Helpline started serving nearly 33,000 members of the Ohio REALTORS, Chicagoland's Mainstreet Organization of REALTORS and its nearly 17,500 members, more than 1,200 members of California’s Monterey County Association of Realtors and the 200+ members of La Porte County Association of Realtors in Indiana.

A service created, owned and operated by Florida Realtors, its Orlando, Florida, staff of technology professionals have 300+ years of combined IT experience. Technical support services are available in both English and Spanish, offering agents and brokers and an extensive range of expert technical assistance. Tech Helpline support analysts help solve software and hardware issues daily, such as setting up a new smartphone, fixing wireless connection issues, laptop recovery from crashes, virus infection problems, and more.

“Tech Helpline support is a member benefit, meaning it doesn’t cost an agent an extra dime,” says Margy Grant, Florida Realtors CEO. According to Grant, that's likely one of the reasons Tech Helpline often ranks as a favorite member benefit of participating Associations, MLSs, and brokerages.

Dubbed the “Genius Bar” for real estate, tech support is available by phone, chat, or email. “Agents and brokers get unlimited support to help them quickly resolve their tech issues," she added.

Tech Helpline services are also available to technology startups and established tech firms. Grant notes that Tech Helpline can give a Proptech firm the ability to offer exceptional and personalized tech support services “to help keep clients happy and telling friends about their great experience.”

According to dozens of surveys that Tech Helpline has conducted for more than a decade, it is often the highest-rated member benefit offered by Realtor Associations, Multiple Listing Services (MLSs), and real estate brokerage firms.

“One of the biggest benefits in using Tech Helpline is the superior customer experience,” Grant said. “Tech Helpline analysts work with Realtors every day. They truly understand what an agent or broker does. They have a well-earned reputation as the friendliest tech support service available. By removing the fear of calling tech support, agents and brokers can reach out and ask any tech question.”
