Both clients and lawyers know that property transactions can be complex, they usually involve a large number of stakeholders with a lot of information changing hands. This can cause a lot of confusion for clients and professionals alike, leading to unwanted delays and frustration. Therefore communicating clearly is often key to delivering a good service to your clients, if done correctly it will reduce transaction time and make the process smoother for all involved.
The idea for InTouch was first conceived due to the frustration of the founder in having had two house purchases fall through, at least of them avoidable if communication had been better. As a software developer our founder recognised that the root to some of the problems he experienced, was a problem of information, a problem that could be resolved with information technology (IT).
This led him to set out on a journey to solve that problem starting in 2012, the InTouch stakeholder portal was born. Providing a portal where all stakeholders could be invited to to easily share information and update each other on progress on each transaction.
This allows each stakeholder to easily see what is happening on the matter, significantly reducing the need to chase and follow-up on next actions. A number of clients have reported a drop of up to 40% in inbound phone calls after implementing the portal.
The portal has come a long way since then but the fundamentals remain the same, it is about giving transparency to the stakeholders, communicating with them in an easy way to ensure communication is open.
The portal allows a conveyancer or estate agent to easily share information by for example;
"We have no regrets whatsoever about changing case management systems and would urge others to take a look at what InTouch can do."
"The simplicity of the InTouch conveyancing software design, all adds to a platform that has greatly improved our clients property transaction experience."
"Your product is awesome. One which is lesser-known in the conveyancing world but far simpler & efficient than the other 16 I've worked with."
Elsewhere within our case management system, each milestone can trigger an automatic update to be sent to each stakeholder once; a task is completed, a note is added or a new document is shared. The update is configurable and can differ depending on the stakeholder.
The expectations of clients have changed over time as technology has advanced, being able to communicate and engage with service providers in a digital way is now the norm. As such InTouch conveyancing software also offers;
All this together enables you to adopt a more proactive approach to communication, making the transaction more transparent, while automating administrative tasks. Ultimately leading to a better customer experience and a more efficient practice.
