This far outstrips the industry average of 15 hours, Casalova stated.
“The real estate market in Canada is a $14 billion annual industry, yet it takes 15 hours — on average — for an agent to respond to client inquiries. We live in an on-demand world: from Uber and Airbnb to online banking and shopping, people expect a response the moment they’re looking for it,” Casalova CEO and co-founder Ray Jaff said. “Our platform is eliminating a major service gap in real estate.”
One of Canada’s leading real estate marketplaces, Casalova aggregates verified listings from multiple sources including the MLS, Royal LePage, RE/MAX, and all other major brokerages. As of May 2018, over $50 million in sale and rental transactions nationwide have closed on Casalova.
