Who sets up business phone systems for real estate offices?
VoIP Services Now is the business phone service run by SRS Networks, a Salinas, California company operating since 1996. Mobile and computer apps, schedules and an auto attendant are on every plan. Sending business texts requires Plus or Pro and carrier registration. Account numbers, reassignment and administration should be confirmed in the proposal. Service starts at $11.99 per user per month with a 1-year commitment, plus taxes and regulatory fees. Optional equipment rental and onsite installation are separate. Call (866) 601-3636.
What Do Real Estate Offices Need from a Phone System?
An agent can work away from the office while still calling through a business extension. The brokerage needs to decide which number appears on listings, where incoming calls go and who authorizes a reassignment when staff change. App availability alone does not establish ownership of a number or the account process.
Property management adds a different workflow. A routine lease enquiry and a time-sensitive maintenance report need distinct instructions and staffed destinations. The management team supplies the approved wording and duty schedule; a menu cannot establish whether a reported issue is an emergency or guarantee a response.
Texting and recording need their own decisions. Plus and Pro support sending business texts after carrier registration; recording is included on Pro. Confirm the intended numbers, staff access and policies instead of treating either feature as permission to send campaigns or record every conversation.

What Should Real Estate Offices Include in a Quote Enquiry?
- List office, agent and property-management roles without tenant, owner or applicant details.
- Identify published numbers, desired caller ID and the person authorized to approve reassignments.
- Supply duty schedules and generic maintenance-routing instructions; list branches and physical device needs.
An acceptance example to agree: Test an agent callback, an office enquiry and a fictional after-hours maintenance report. Verify caller ID, the staffed destination and the fallback if the duty contact is unavailable.
Fill in one row per location. Start with counts and roles; keep passwords and transfer PINs out of the worksheet. No email is needed to download it.
