I am building a software startup tailored towards managers to better help them streamline their current tasks, especially for lease agreements. Would love to hear more about the current pains within the industry, what isn't solved by today's solutions, and see if I can help with that!

I'm a founder building AI SMS agents, and my co-founder found something hilarious tonight in AWS

Our agent was texting a lead for one of our customers, but something about the conversation looked off...

AI: Hi, interested in our program?

Lead: Texting is not supported at this time. Please call {business name} at 123 456-7890. Thank you!

AI: I understand - since it's outside our business hours, we're unable to call right now. Could you share when you might be available for a quick call?

Lead: Texting is not supported at this time. Please call {business name} at 123 456-7890. Thank you!

It went on and on...for 400 hundred messages!!

And so that's the story of how a non-texting number with auto-replies turned our OpenAI billing chart into $GME's for a day 🫡

Does anybody know of a tool/website that provides advanced listing filters and possible notifications?

I'm curious if something exists that might have features like: rent estimate based on comps, estimated ROI, projected rent/PITI ratio, time to breakeven, # of units, ADU onsite, maybe image recognition features, and potentially other advanced filters.

Does something like this exist? I haven't been able to find anything yet, I would like to use it if it exists. but I think I could build something that can do most of this so I'm considering it and wondering if there's demand for this type of thing. What other features would be desired or you like to see?

Hey all,

I've been building an AI appointment setter for realtors and I've made a quick video about how you can do this too. This is definitely for those who are visionaries, early adopters of new technology, and those who want to gain a competitive edge.

These new AI agents can help you save time on manually cold calling, increase your efficiency, and ultimately get you more listings faster than you could've before.

Feel free to check it out here:

If you have any questions or feedback please let me know here or leave a comment on my video.

Cheers!

What CRM do you guys use? I’ve used Salesforce in the past and it’s a little too cumbersome for my needs. Was considering Apto. Would love to hear your thoughts on programs you use. What are the pros and cons?

Being successful in real estate requires careful planning and smart decisions, just like successful investors do, they run the numbers to minimize calculated risks, and having the right tools can make all the difference. Let's explore what tools do real estate investors use? One such tool for example is Cashflow Analyzer Pro with Deal Instant Analyzer that provides a detailed real estate investment analysis, considering all potential income sources that the investment can generate and accurately calculates the total ROI. Many new real estate investors they focus only on cashflow or they speculate on appreciation. However, investing is a bit like cooking, there are multiple ingredients to consider to make it a tasty dish. That's why Cashflow Analyzer Pro breaks down various components such as cashflow, principal paydown, home and renovation appreciation, initial equity, and potential tax savings, showing their individual gains and ROI over a 30-year period. This helps in identifying which factors provide the highest returns for making informed investment decisions.

One feature I like is the ROI Indicator, representing ROI quality through color-coded cells: Green for strong ROI, red for poor ROI, and orange for acceptable ROI.

Additionally, it gives you the option to explore different scenarios, like using HELOC, Cash, or other loans for funding or renovations, and the calculator will take into account the payments you need to make for these funds.

The tool can even simulate variable rate changes over the years, enabling real-time ROI tracking by monitoring changes in home value, rent, and interest rates, to evaluate their impact on returns.

Plus, it calculates various metrics like Cash on Cash ROI, CAP rates, Rental Yield, Debt Coverage Ratio, BRRR strategy, Net Profit If Sold, and more.

I highly recommend checking it out at 

Hope you find it helpful!

Does anyone know if theres a need for a staging tool using AI?

What is everyone's thoughts on this:

A chatbot to help renters find apartment units. Instead of entering a location and filtering on Zillow/Apartments.com, renters communicate with a chatbot, who will filter for them and find the perfect apartment unit.

Is this something you'd use? Any feedback on the idea?

Hi, I’m Neil, 25, a soon-to-be Marketing graduate! I'm working on my Bachelor's thesis, "SEO Monopoly: The Critical Impact of Search Engine Optimization on Real Estate Business Success." A work in progress.

Can I please borrow at least 5 minutes of your time for a quick survey?

As an SEO practitioner who recently returned to school, this research means a lot to me (since my niche is in real estate). Plus, I’ll continue this work even after graduation, so your input is incredibly valuable.

The survey is quick – just 5-7 minutes – and your responses are confidential.

Please help me by taking the survey .

If you're skeptical about surveys—here's an overview of some questions within the form (I don't need personal details):

1. What is your role in the real estate business?

2. What areas do you primarily serve?

3. Does your real estate business use SEO strategies?

4. If yes, what SEO techniques do you find most effective? (Select all that apply)

5. How significant is the impact of SEO on your lead generation? And 5 more...

If by any chance this isn't allowed here, can you at least point me in the right direction to where I can seek respondents? I'm not based in the U.S so meeting real estate pros personally wouldn't be ideal for me. I can have you take a look at my unfinished research for proof that this isn't a marketing Ploy.

Thanks in advance!

I'm a founder working on , wanted to share a conversation flow we've built for a real estate rental marketplace :)

• Why this works better than a traditional SMS logic flow chart or a form:

  • With LLMs, conditions can be defined in English rather than just matching keywords (e.g. press 1 for x, 2 for y, 3 for z)

  • Can answer questions about the rental marketplace that come up along the way

  • Can keep the lead on track with answering questions if things get off topic

  • Personalized follow-up if lead gets distracted or busy! (it happens

Thinking of investing partially in a vacation home in Goa, India with a few friends. Any thought? I am trying to get inputs from folks who have already invested in Goa or have been part of the fractional real estate investment in India.

Hello! I’m building a RE investment tool that automatically calculates rent and finds the best investment properties across the nation.

I’m not selling anything, it is free and I’m looking for early users to try it out, so we can make it more useful for real estate investors.

I find that it gives a nice overview of what homes in different states look like & cost, and you can begin to develop a sense of where good investments potential are or aren’t.

Check it out at . Feel free to send me DMs! MODS, I’m not selling anything but if this isn’t allowed, I can remove the link.

Hi. I would appreciate if you share your experience and tell if there is anything you would like to automate in your daily job routine.

I am a software developer and I am thinking about some side project to help real businesses but I feel there is a lack of understanding what real people need so I try to collect some feedback from different audience to come up with an idea. Thanks

My team and I have created a skip tracing API which is pay as you go, starts at 0.005 (half of a cent) per API call and accuracy is great. We want to help wholesalers create their own internal systems so you only pay for what you use and don’t depend on no one else for your leads. If interested please let me know.

Hey everybody,

great business group, love it how supportive everybody is.

I am a Psychologist and I work with Entrepreneurs for a couple of years already.

Years ago, I especially helped Entrepreneurs to build habits and become more effective.

Nowadays, I´m working on a new project.

I´m working out a new framework helping Entrepreneurs with Mindset Barriers.

For example, feeling Overwhelmed, lacking Clarity and the Imposter Syndrome.

I tested this with a couple of old clients and it showed great results.

Before I am turning this project into an offer and running ads at full scale, I would like to test this with a couple of more Entrepreneurs in real life.

If you feel like this resonates and you would like to be one of the first 2-3 practical testers, then you are welcome to contact me.

By the way, participation as a tester is free of charge and involves a 30min. free call in which we fully dive into your challenges. I create an open space for everything that comes up in our conversation.

In return, I only expect feedback.

You can check out my work here:
