REI REPLY + AI ASSISTANT : Focus on Closing Deals, Not Operating Systems
Howto & Style
Introduction
After 48 years in the real estate industry, I have finally perfected my system for ensuring that my AI assistant effectively communicates with sellers. This assistant not only responds appropriately but also poses the right pre-qualifying questions prior to encouraging the seller to engage in a call.
The process began with configuring AI intents and training the bot repeatedly to ensure it could ask relevant questions. When a seller inquires about receiving an offer, instead of instantly providing one, the AI takes a more thorough approach. It prompts the seller for detailed information about the property such as the condition of the roof, furnace, and HVAC system. It also inquires whether the seller still resides in the property and checks for any outstanding taxes or mortgages.
The AI assistant is currently responding correctly to these inquiries. After gathering the necessary information, it assures the seller that it will run the numbers. Eventually, at the end of the conversation, the bot encourages the seller to schedule a specific time for a call with an investor.
While there may still be room for adjustments, I believe this AI assistant serves as an excellent tool for any real estate investor engaging in SMS marketing. It streamlines the pre-qualification process and allows investors to focus on closing deals instead of getting bogged down by operational tasks.
