Tech Pulse: Agent AI adoption; title fraud thwarted in Ohio
"Kaplan's inaugural Real Estate Survey of Trends reveals that 48% of agents expect client growth in the next 6-12 months. However, the study also shows that 46% of agents are not using AI professionally and 52% believe traditional brokerages are inadequately preparing for a tech-driven future. EquityProtect's SmartPolicy technology successfully prevented a title theft attempt targeting an elderly Columbus, Ohio, homeowner this summer. The system flagged a suspicious reverse mortgage request, alerting the owner's daughter who holds power of attorney."
"Closinglock has launched a free tool for its customers to automate FinCEN data collection, reducing manual work from 2-3 hours to minutes per file. The solution available immediately integrates with DocuSign and title production software to ensure compliance with the new anti-money laundering rule effective March 2026. Atlas VMS and QuantumReverse have partnered to integrate the AIM-Port order management platform, granting reverse mortgage lenders direct access to lender-approved AMCs."
"This integration aims to centralize appraisal management, ensure compliance, and maintain oversight across approved AMCs. Radius introduces Mel AI, an integrated artificial intelligence assistant for real estate teams. Trained on MLS and compliance data, Mel supports tasks across marketing, lead management, transactions and compliance. The platform currently serves over 200 teams and is backed by notable investors in the real estate tech space."
