The year ahead will reward teams that move fast, collaborate well, and show up with clean data. Here is a simple readiness checklist to carry into 2026.

The 2026-ready checklist

  1. A single source of truth for properties. Listings, GIS, and enrichment in one place.
  2. RFI workflows that are measured and repeatable. You can respond in days, not weeks.
  3. Public‑facing assets that match internal data. Your maps, portals, and sheets never contradict each other.
  4. Regional collaboration that still preserves local control. Partners can contribute without chaos.
  5. Automation for the boring parts. The team spends time on relationships and story, not data cleanup.

If you want help turning this checklist into a system, Sitehunt was built for exactly that.
