Chatbots are a valuable tool for real estate professionals looking to improve their website's accessibility and customer service. These computer programs can simulate conversations with human users and provide instant assistance to visitors on your website, even when you're not available. In this article, we'll discuss the benefits of using a chatbot on your real estate website and introduce one service, Roof Ai, that can help generate leads and qualify mortgage leads for brokerages. We will also talk about all those creepy new ones out there making headlines today.

Benefits of using a traditional chatbot (the ones that have been around for years)  on your real estate website include:

  • Increased accessibility: Chatbots allow you to assist visitors 24/7, even when you're taking a break. This is particularly useful for serving international clients in different time zones.
  • Improved customer service: Chatbots can handle a large volume of inquiries simultaneously, ensuring that all website visitors receive a quick and helpful response.
  • Lead generation: Chatbots can be programmed to ask questions and gather visitors' information, which can generate leads for your business.
  • Time-saving: By automating the answering of frequently asked questions, chatbots can save you time that can be spent on more critical tasks.

One service that may be worth considering is Roof Ai. This chatbot platform uses Natural Language to handle conversational inquiries and has successfully increased user registrations and closed deals for brands that have incorporated it. I have seen the numbers/results, and they are legitimately helping companies scale their service level. Additionally, for brokerages, Roof can help qualify mortgage leads.

It's important to note that old and new chatbots are still in the early stages of development and may not be able to handle transactions or other advanced tasks fully. Consumers may also be hesitant to trust everything these new chatbots can do, as there is potential for mistakes. However, chatbots like Roof can still be valuable to your real estate website, providing assistance and generating leads while more advanced tools are developed.

So in the meantime, let's let Roof handle what they handle, and Skynet can be tabled for later.
