Abstract
The thesis analyzed the importance of customer service in brokerage and its impact on brokerage business. The issue was examined from the point of view of the quality of customer service, and the use of experiential data was central. In addition to defining and developing high-quality customer service, the thesis also highlights aspects of quality assurance. The thesis did not have a separate sponsor, but the topic arose from the discussions with the employees of two different real estate agency companies about my own interest.
The research method was a semi-structured interview method. In qualitative interviews, interviews have been conducted in writing or by meeting with eight real estate agents, two of which as a responsible manager in two different brokerage firms. The semi-structured theme interview was guided by an interview frame, which consisted of four main topics, enabling the interviewees to record the experiential knowledge and perspectives. The questions were prepared from the perspective of customer service to cover as much as possible the real estate agency work.
Based on the results of the interview survey, the quality of customer service can be identified as a result of the result and the business. Premiums-based pay is a key incentive to make a commercial result, which in turn does not come without quality customer service. In the experience-based views, differ-ences were found in the definition and development of good service. An important part of high-quality personal customer service is earning trust from the customer's needs. Comprehensive real estate educa-tion and in-service training will ensure substance knowledge, but mutual consultation between real es-tate agents is an important information exchange channel. Customer feedback through enterprise-spe-cific methods helps to ensure and develop the quality of the service experience. Brokerage companies must compete with personal customer-oriented service.
