In real estate, the first ten minutes after a listing enquiry decide whether a prospect becomes an active lead or moves on to the next agent. Those ten minutes often fall on evenings, weekends or in the middle of an existing viewing — outside classic office hours. An AI phone assistant for lead qualification answers inbound calls instantly, checks for financing status, intent to buy versus invest, desired move-in window and household size, and proposes a viewing slot that is reconciled with the agent calendar in real time.

How it works in practice

01Incoming call is answered in English by the AI phone assistant within one ring.
02Capture of the property identifier or listing address the caller is interested in.
03Qualification questions: own-use versus investment, desired move-in window, financing status (bank, savings, equity), household size.
04On a positive qualification, proposal of two viewing slots from the agent calendar and dispatch of a confirmation link.
05Lead is created in the CRM with status, qualification notes and an automatic follow-up task for the responsible agent.

Business case

An agency with two active sales agents handles 80 to 200 inbound enquiries per month depending on listing inventory. Field data shows that roughly 40 percent of those calls arrive outside core hours and are lost without an instant answer. If the AI assistant captures 60 percent of those calls and converts 25 percent into actual viewings, that produces six to fifteen extra qualified viewings per month. At typical agency commission levels in the DACH region a single additional brokered deal pays for the bhomy Pro plan at 99 euros per month on annual billing for several years.

EU hosting & GDPR

bhomy hosts all call data exclusively in the European Union, including a Data Processing Agreement (DPA). Call recordings are end-to-end encrypted and stored only for the agreed purpose.

Frequently asked questions

No. The assistant only records information the prospect volunteers — financing status, household size, move-in window. A Schufa or credit check happens later in the regular agency process with explicit consent; the assistant only triggers the right follow-up task for that step.
