How Apex Realty Partners Closed 23% More Deals With AI Lead Response
A 12-agent residential brokerage in Orlando, FL specializing in first-time homebuyers and investment properties.
The Challenge
Lead response time averaged 4+ hours because agents were in showings. Hot leads were going cold. CRM data was weeks out of date. Transaction coordination required a full-time admin tracking 30+ steps per deal manually.
- •Average lead response time: 4.2 hours (industry benchmark: under 5 minutes)
- •35% of leads came after 6 PM — went unanswered until morning
- •Agents hated CRM data entry — records were incomplete or weeks old
- •Transaction coordination: 1 admin manually tracking 30+ steps for 15+ active deals
- •Listing descriptions took 30-45 minutes per property
Our Solution
We deployed AI instant lead response across all channels, automated CRM updates from agent communications, and built a transaction coordination workflow that tracks every milestone.
AI lead responder connected to Zillow, Realtor.com, and website leads. Responds in under 90 seconds with property details, qualifying questions (budget, timeline, pre-approval status), and books showings directly on the agent's calendar.
Automated transaction coordination: accepted offer triggers a 30+ step workflow with milestone tracking, automated emails to all parties (title, lender, inspector), deadline alerts, and closing countdown. Plus CRM auto-update from email and SMS.
AI listing description generator that creates professional descriptions from MLS data and property photos. Also generates social media posts for each new listing.
