Real Estate

About 320 hoursof follow-up saved in 1 year, Realty AI estimates

A RE/MAX broker put an AI on her website. It chats with visitors day and night.

Her old website chatbot wasn't bringing in enough good leads. The new AI talks to every visitor and puts each lead in her CRM. Realty AI, the company that sells it, says it saved her about 320 hours in a year.

The business

Mary Wylde's RE/MAX team (Guelph, Ontario, Canada)

Mary Wylde is the Broker of Record and founder of a RE/MAX real estate team in Guelph. She has worked in real estate for more than 20 years.

The problem

Her old website chatbot wasn't bringing in enough leads, and the leads weren't good enough. Too many visitors left the site without talking to anyone.

People who were ready to buy or sell slipped away at night, on weekends and while she was out at showings. She wanted something that would talk to every visitor, sort out the serious ones, send them into Follow Up Boss (her CRM, the system that keeps track of her contacts), and cut down on time spent answering by hand.

The bot or tool

Madison, the website AI from Realty AI

Realty AI set up an AI helper on her website that is on 24/7. It was made to fit her business.

How they set it up

  1. A visitor lands on her website, and the AI starts a chat right away, any time of day.
  2. It asks what they need: where they want to live, and whether they want to buy or sell and when.
  3. It sorts the serious visitors from the rest.
  4. It sends each lead and a short summary of the chat into Follow Up Boss.
  5. Her team then only reaches out to leads that are already sorted and ready.

The result

Hours saved
About 320 in 1 year, by Realty AI's estimate
Money made or saved
Over $4.8 million in sales from 6 listings the AI brought in, Realty AI says

The page doesn't always match itself: in a few spots it says 434 new leads (not 343) and 382 hours saved (not 320). We used the numbers in its results list. The 320 hours is an estimate.
