Agorafy - Solving problems for commercial brokers/agents

Agorafy's open platform allows commercial real estate professionals to access and share detailed information including retail listings, office listings and property information. All of which is verified to ensure that Agorafy is the most accurate resource available to the commercial real estate community. Everyday, our developers are hard at work designing and implementing new features and capabilities with the goal of creating value for our users. Aggregating market data is just the first step toward helping our users work more efficiently and saving them time. Everyday, commercial real estate professionals spend a considerable amount of time researching office and retail listings. Whether searching for a specific tenant's space requirements or just researching comparables in the market it can be an incredibly time consuming process. Agorafy addresses this by ensuring that every listing that is published has a verified asking price and has been updated within the last 60 days; users don't need to waste time calling a dozen brokers to check availability. Our market data is accurate and up to date, you can rely on it. Agorafy also allows users to print market reports, save specific search criteria, and subscribe to specific listings and properties. There is no need to run the same search over and over; we'll notify you if there are any changes or when a new space becomes available. For brokers and properties owners Agorafy provides an open platform to list all of your retail and office availabilities with published asking prices, marketing flyers, floor plans and high quality photos. This gives our users complete control on how their listings are presented to other professionals. Property owners, office tenants, retail tenants, and commercial brokers are on Agorafy everyday working deals and building relationships. By publishing a space's asking price our users find that drastically cuts down on the amount of time spent on the phone verifying just that piece of information. Schedule Open Showing - Maximize your Time Agorafy's newest features allows brokers and properties owners the ability to schedule "Open Showings." For any exclusive listing that you have you can set up an "Open Showing" and notify Agorafy users of a date and time that you have set up to allow a large number of brokers and potential tenants to preview the space. The brokers can then RSVP by email. By now you know the drill, every time you sign on a new exclusive you have to prepare the marketing material, get it out to the marketplace, and then line up the numerous showings as the interest rolls in. Agorafy wants to help you maximize your time by giving you the platform to introduce new listings to the marketplace and schedule an "Open Showing" where a large number of brokers and prospective tenants can preview the space. Our team at Agorafy is committed to giving our users access to the best available market data and the tools they need to work efficiently and focus on closing deals. Richard Du is the founder and CEO of Agorafy, New York, N.Y.
