Why This Matters for Real Estate Agents

You have three showings today, an open house Sunday, and two new leads from Zillow that need follow-up within 5 minutes or they go cold. You're driving between properties, updating your CRM from the car, and trying to remember which buyer wants what. Your commission on the last deal was $8,500 but your software stack costs $200/month — Follow Up Boss, QuickBooks, Calendly, and a transaction coordinator tool. That's $2,400/year before you sell a single house.

Real Estate Agents face unique challenges: CRM costs — Follow Up Boss is $69/month per user, kvCORE is $499-$1,800/month. Managing leads from Zillow, Realtor.com, social media, and referrals in one place. Transaction management locked in 12-month Dotloop contracts with no escape. Tracking irregular commission income against fixed monthly software costs. BoomTown platform stagnating while parent company pushes migration to newer products. Paying enterprise brokerage prices for solo agent needs. On top of all that, Follow Up Boss charges $499/month ($5,988/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median real estate agent earns $50,000/year. Software at $5,988/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.

Your Lockbox and key access system is yours. You bought it once. Nexa works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.
