Inside Real Estate Sets the Pace for Tech Innovation With BoldTrail
To understand BoldTrail, you have to understand the vision behind it—and maybe just as important, the people and the history. Joe Skousen, founder and CEO of Inside Real Estate, says BoldTrail is not just born from the company’s expertise as a longstanding technology partner to many of the largest brands and fastest-growing brokerages and teams in real estate, but from the values, insights and relationships built from its very earliest days. With a passion for customer success, the scale and resources to take on massive industry challenges and the insight and experience to solve common pain points for real estate businesses of all sizes, Skousen says the company is fully armed for this critical moment that has created uncertainty—but also opportunity—for everyone in real estate. In this month’s cover story, take a closer look at how Inside Real Estate is blazing a (bold) trail for the future.
