Fact: Deal Data is gold in CRE.
Problem: We give it to a company that sells it back to us.
Solution: Imagine a "Marketplace" where you could access comps of deals done by
@realEstateTrent,
@BobKnakal,
@fortworthchris etc.
If you called one of those guys up and said "I'll give you $20 for your comps", they'd laugh.
If 1k people paid them $20/month that's $240k/year, then you may have their attention.
Or, 10k people... $50/mo... you get the idea.
It's basically the Substack model for CRE deal data.
It attributes deal data value directly to the dealmakers.
Sounds cool Willz, but that could get expensive fast!
Yes, so maybe @zachmolzer's deal data is only worth a follow on Twitter/X... but, the additional followers may be worth it to him.
There are probably many flaws in this idea, but given the sentiment I've observed on this platform, it seems like people are craving a better model.
At
@mapsheetdotcom, we have the infrastructure in place to build this exact marketplace within weeks.
But, I'll leave it up to
#retwit /
#crex to decide if they want it.
