Kansas Real Estate Alexa Skill Honored With A National Award

The ARELLO® Education Certification Committee awarded the Kansas Real Estate Commission (KREC) with a Communication Award for the Kansas Real Estate Alexa skill. ARELLO® brings regulators together to promote excellence in real estate regulation.

The Information Network of Kansas (INK) and the Kansas Information Consortium (KIC) partnered with the Commission to create the Kansas Real Estate Alexa skill. This voice-enabled tool uses an Amazon device to provide accurate real estate information that is easily accessible by licensees, members of the industry, educators and the public.

“The Kansas Real Estate Commission is excited to receive this award. We strive to be a leader when it comes to using new technology to communicate with licensees and consumers,” said Erik Wisner, Executive Director. “Allowing licensees to obtain information through voice-enabled digital assistants offers amazing convenience and more immediate access to information related to their real estate business.”

KREC was recognized on Sept. 20 during the Award-Winning Ideas session at the 2019 ARELLO® Annual Conference in Denver.
