A few weeks ago, we discussed the importance of the real estate industry in Canada being able to keep up with global technology trends. From Amazon’s Alexa, to Google Home, to Apple’s Siri, these advancements in technology, mostly using voice recognition, have provided users with shortcuts to complete daily tasks. With a simple “Hey Alexa, turn on my bedroom light,” you can control your light switch without lifting a finger.&nbsp;&nbsp;Today, property owners are interested in home automation systems and additional comforts it provides. Home automation systems, also called a smart home, are technology brought into the real estate business. Homeowners are able to control virtually every aspect of their home using voice controls or using their smartphone. From the thermostat to security, theatre systems, lighting, intercom systems, internet connection, locks, the garage door, feeding your pet - home automation systems can do it all and make a life of any home owner much easier.&nbsp;&nbsp;In Canada, RIFO’s Smart Home Platform, which integrates your registered home devices, lets you keep an eye on your home no matter where you. At work or on vacation, RIFO Smart Home Platform makes your life easier and more secure. Integrated intelligent security and controls provide 24/7 active real time monitoring of your home. The intelligent control system includes the terminal intelligent controller. For example, smart switches, valves, thermostats, etc. In addition to the most basic remote control, various conditions can be set to automatically trigger a required action.&nbsp;&nbsp;<figure class="image image-style-side"><img src="https://files.rifo.co/CompanySite/9/9_image.jpeg"></figure>All smart home appliances can be networked and controlled just one RIFO App. They can cooperate with each other in different scenarios, in order to complete various tasks more efficiently. The appliances’ self-test system helps to maintain the devices to keep the best working condition.&nbsp;Say you are at work and want to check on your kids in the living room – RIFO App from your smartphone will allow you to watch them using the camera in the living room.

If fully integrated into the home, home automation systems are an attractive force for potential home buyers – many potential investors would be more than likely to pay extra for these systems. Having the most updated technology properly integrated in a home increases property value for a number of reasons. An obvious one is the increase in popularity. Will this be the new standard in homes? Many homeowners and sellers consider these features key to their lives and cannot imagine their home without the convenience provided.
