The REB Innovation Summit is one of the most anticipated industry events, bringing together leaders who are shaping the future of real estate. This year, the spotlight will be on Christopher Borg, CEO of Borg Financial and My Virtual Broker, as he discusses how AI tools in real estate are transforming the way agents work. His insights are expected to set the stage for how technology is redefining efficiency and productivity across the sector.
Real estate has always been a people-led industry. However, modern markets are demanding contemporary, streamlined systems to support their agents. The old ways are often time-intensive actions. This has resulted in less time to devote to clients. The data from Borg’s presentation will show how AI tools are specifically reducing the dependence on manual processes and allowing agents to adopt more intelligent methods. Using artificial intelligence can help agents begin to deliver the same services but with less effort and time and much more personalization.
The conversation is not only about technology, but about transformation. With the rise of automation, real estate agents are discovering how to better balance client interaction with business efficiency. Borg’s session promises to show practical examples of how these advancements are already at play and why adoption is no longer optional but essential.
Why AI Matters in Real Estate Today
AI is not a future technology — it is a real necessity in the real estate industry. AI-powered platforms are helping agents eliminate inefficiencies across lead generation, transaction management and beyond. The application of AI in real estate enables professionals to better analyze data, make precise predictions about the market, and engage more effectively with clients.
Christopher Borg will address how agents can use AI to create authentic experiences for their clients while automating the mundane tasks that take place behind the scenes on the back-end everything from scheduling and follow-ups to document management. By taking advantage of these systems, agents can have a competitive advantage in today’s marketplace.
Streamlining Workflows with AI
One of the biggest challenges for real estate professionals is simultaneously juggling several tasks. AI can help to streamline workflows so that things like client onboarding, market analysis, and management of property listings can coordinate effectively. Borg will describe how AI reconnects agents with clients and eliminates stress from administrative duties.
Using real estate automation also reduces errors and enhances compliance. Why? Because when systems handle repetitive tasks, human supervision becomes more precise and intentional. When agents do not have to worry about wasted efforts and inefficient habits, they can simply be valuable in the service they provide.
The Power of Real Estate Automation
Automation in real estate is already demonstrated to be one of the key strategies for improving agency workflows. Borg stresses that systems don’t replace agents – they empower them. Real estate agents can better manage customer relationships, leads, and transactions when they have access to AI-powered systems to assist them. Automated CRM systems that send information updates to clients or AI driven chatbots that provide instant answers to questions are just two examples of how real estate automation can improve efficiency and provide better service to clients. Borg’s session will go beyond terminology, and will present clear examples of firms successfully utilizing such systems to get measurable growth in their agency.
AI as a Growth Partner for Agents
Agents utilizing AI technologies in real estate are clearly distinguishing themselves from their competitors. Borg will explain how embracing an AI mindset enables real estate professionals to move from a reactive strategy to a proactive business model. AI can analyze client data to recognize patterns, anticipate buying behavior, and make personalized recommendations.
This establishes agents as trusted advisors versus transaction facilitators. Clients gain insights more rapidly and with greater accuracy, while agents are able to close more transactions efficiently. It is a win-win to help re-establish the value proposition in real estate.
Looking Ahead: AI’s Long-Term Impact
The REB Innovation Summit will also discuss the long-lasting impacts the usage of AI will have on real estate. Borges talks about there only being the tip of the iceberg from AI in real estate. From virtual brokers to predictive analytics, the next years will see technology be combined with a real estate operation as a business partner.
Agents that get with it now will flourish, while agents that are slower to adopt will find it hard to compete. The future will be owned by professionals who can embrace their expertise as humans and combine that with the changing technology and advancements.
