The company decided to introduce SignTime because they believed that the electronic contracting service would help them improve the overall efficiency of their business operations, including paperless operations, as well as improve usability for their customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>\u201cWe talked to other e-contract service providers and tried out their services, but SignTime was the most flexible and responsive to the services we wanted to offer to our users,&#8221; said Shoka. \u201cWe\u2019ve been exceptionally pleased with the integration of SignTime\u2019s features into our offerings.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Now REASE contracts can be sent by SMS as well as e-mail, the order of approval procedures can be set, and hundreds of contracts can be sent simultaneously. SignTime\u2019s template function is also easy to operate, and input items can be added or changed with very simple point and click operations. The collaboration between REASE Inc. and SignTime has just begun and both parties believe they can look forward to a strong period of growth and innovation as the Japanese real estate industry continues to modernize.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":509,"parent":0,"template":"","casestudy_cat":[15,61,18,62],"class_list":["post-506","casestudy","type-casestudy","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","casestudy_cat-medium","casestudy_cat-real-estate-industries","casestudy_cat-time-consumption","casestudy_cat-want-to-get-rid-of-paper-documents"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.6 (Yoast SEO v26.6) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>SignTime&#039;s Case Study | REASE Inc.<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Learn how REASE Inc. used SignTime in their business to streamline processes, save time and better improve operational efficiency.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/casestudy\/rease\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"SignTime in Real Estate Tech: Rease and the SignTime API\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Learn how REASE Inc. used SignTime in their business to streamline processes, save time and better improve operational efficiency.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/casestudy\/rease\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"SignTime\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/signtimekk\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2023-10-26T07:22:15+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/08\/\u751f\u8cc0\u69d8\u5199\u771f-1-e1692599455172.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"986\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"883\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@KSigntime\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"3 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/casestudy\/rease\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/casestudy\/rease\/\",\"name\":\"SignTime's Case Study | REASE Inc.\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/casestudy\/rease\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/casestudy\/rease\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/08\/\u751f\u8cc0\u69d8\u5199\u771f-1-e1692599455172.jpg\",\"datePublished\":\"2023-08-21T06:43:59+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2023-10-26T07:22:15+00:00\",\"description\":\"Learn how REASE Inc. used SignTime in their business to streamline processes, save time and better improve operational efficiency.\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/casestudy\/rease\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/casestudy\/rease\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/casestudy\/rease\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/08\/\u751f\u8cc0\u69d8\u5199\u771f-1-e1692599455172.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/08\/\u751f\u8cc0\u69d8\u5199\u771f-1-e1692599455172.jpg\",\"width\":986,\"height\":883},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/casestudy\/rease\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Customer Success Story\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/casestudy\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":3,\"name\":\"SignTime in Real Estate Tech: Rease and the SignTime API\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.signtime.com\/en\/\",\"name\":\"SignTime\",\"description\":\"Fast and easy.
