HOUSTON – March 16, 2022 – Realty Associates, a Latter & Blum company and one of the largest and most effective marketers of homes and commercial real estate in the Houston area, announces the debut of new, next-generation technology from Delta Media.

The new technology will deliver more market exposure for sellers and better local real estate market insight for buyers throughout America’s fourth-largest city, as well as Austin, Dallas-Ft. Worth, San Antonio, and Harlingen, Texas.

The new Realty Associates website is fueled by the industry’s most potent all-in-one marketing technology platform for real estate brokerages, powered by Delta Media. The site uses the newest advanced technologies to deliver one of the most robust local home search experiences for consumers available in Texas.

Serving Texans for more than 45 years and part of Latter & Blum, one of the nation’s real estate firms comprised of more than 40 real estate companies and 3,800 agents, Realty Associates will provide its more than 1,700 agents with Delta Media software tools. The advanced technology includes a robust customer relations management (CRM) system, digital and print marketing automation, an advanced social media promotional system, and more – that will ensure its customers receive more exposure for their homes than ever.

“More people today start their home search experience online than ever before,” said Pete Merritt, President of Realty Associates. He notes research from the National Association of REALTORS says 97 percent of buyers and sellers today use the internet in their home search.

“Fifteen years ago, that number was just 2 percent,” Merritt added. “That means you must provide the most complete, accurate, and fastest-to-market local information available. Then you better be ready to deliver a trusted real estate expert to help them through the process because almost all consumers want the professional guidance of a trusted real estate agent.”

Realty Associates’ new website from Delta Media sets a standard of excellence for local real estate information by leveraging technology that took 40,000 development hours and an investment of more than $30 million for Delta to create.

The new Realty Associates website advanced technology features include:

Faster loading web pages: the quickest in the real estate industry.
