Why real estate teams choose Texter
The texting workflows real estate runs on — lead response, showing reminders, closing-flow updates — with the consent and DNC compliance baked in.
Instant lead auto-response
Lead fills out a Zillow / Realtor.com / IDX form → SMS fires within seconds. Keeps the lead engaged until your agent calls. 9× conversion vs leads contacted after 30 minutes.
New listing alerts
Saved-search criteria in your CRM trigger SMS the moment a matching listing hits MLS. First agent to text gets the showing.
Showing reminders + confirmations
Day-of reminders + 1-hour reminders cut showing no-shows by 40–60%. Two-way confirmations route into the team inbox.
Price-change + market update alerts
Watch list price changes on a buyer's shortlist; auto-send the moment a listing drops below their target. Quarterly market updates to sellers keep you top-of-mind.
Closing-flow status updates
Inspection scheduled → contingencies cleared → appraisal received → clear-to-close → keys delivered. Each milestone fires an SMS, cutting "what's the status?" inbound calls ~70%.
CRM integrations: FUB, BoomTown, kvCORE
Native integrations with the CRMs you already use. Lead status, tags, and segments sync both ways. SMS activity writes back to the CRM timeline.
Common real estate workflows
Real flows real estate teams ship with Texter — and the conversion lift they typically return.
Instant lead auto-response (within 30 seconds)
Sets the 5-minute response clock immediately. Leads who get an SMS-within-30s convert ~9× more often than those contacted after 30 minutes.
Showing reminder — day-of + 1 hour before
Reduces no-shows on showings 40–60%. The 1-hour-before reminder is the single biggest driver.
New listing alert from saved search
First-to-text wins the showing. Texters typically book 25–40% of these into showings within 24h.
Closing flow status — clear to close
Eliminates the "what stage are we in?" call. Buyers love the proactive updates.
