Hey r/realtors,

Been using ChatGPT daily for about a year now in my real estate business. Want to share some prompts that actually work for me — not the generic stuff you'll find in a thousand blog posts.

Fair warning: This is going to be long. But if you take one thing from it, make it this: The quality of your prompts determines the quality of your output. Generic prompts = generic results.

Listing Descriptions (Works Fast, Saves Hours)

Prompt:


Write a listing description for [PROPERTY TYPE] with:
- Address: [ADDRESS]
- Price: [PRICE]
- Beds/Baths: [#/#]
- Square feet: [SQFT]
- Key features: [FEATURES]
- Neighborhood: [AREA]

Write in [DESIRED TONE - sophisticated, family-friendly, luxury, etc]. Avoid clichés like "dream home" or "must-see." Use sensory details. [WORD COUNT TARGET]

Example result: I used this for a 1970s split-level that had been on market for 60 days. ChatGPT caught the "original hardwood floors" and "lot potential" angles I was missing. Property went under contract in 2 weeks.

Follow-Up Emails (The Ones We Always Procrastinate)

After showing prompt:


Write a follow-up email after a showing. Property: [ADDRESS]. Buyer seemed [REACTION]. They mentioned liking [SPECIFIC THINGS]. Their concerns were [IF ANY].

Include: appreciation, specific things they liked, address any concerns, subtle next step. Keep under 200 words. Conversational tone.

Sphere monthly update prompt:


Write a monthly market update email. Current market data:
- Median price: [PRICE]
- Inventory: [# homes]
- Days on market: [AVG]
- Trend I'm seeing: [TREND]

Make it useful, not just data. End with soft call to action to connect.

CMAs (Finally Doing These Faster)

CMA prompt:


Create a CMA summary for [PROPERTY ADDRESS] comparing:
- Comp 1: [ADDRESS] sold [DATE] at [PRICE] — [BEDS/BATHS/SQFT]
- Comp 2: [ADDRESS] sold [DATE] at [PRICE] — [BEDS/BATHS/SQFT]
- Comp 3: [ADDRESS] sold [DATE] at [PRICE] — [BEDS/BATHS/SQFT]

Subject property: [ADDRESS], list price [PRICE], [BEDS/BATHS/SQFT]

Explain the data in plain English, position the price appropriately, note relevant trends. 150-200 words plus data table.

Objection Handling (Use Before Calls)

Price objection:


A buyer just told me the property is overpriced. Comp data shows similar homes sold for [PRICE RANGE]. How do I explain the price premium for this specific property's [UNIQUE FEATURE]?

Write 3 options: diplomatic, value-focused, and closing-focused.

Competition objection (buyer looking at multiple properties):


My buyer is comparing Property A ([DETAILS]) with Property B ([DETAILS]). They prefer B because [REASON]. How do I help them see the value in Property A without being pushy?

Write 2 approaches that respect their decision-making process.

Market update post:


Create a LinkedIn post about [TOPIC]. Data points: [DATA]. Make it conversational, educational, no jargon. Include takeaway action. End with question to drive engagement. No hashtags in middle.

Client success story (anonymized):


Write a post celebrating a closed deal. Client was [BUYER/SELLER], looking for [WHAT THEY WANTED], timeline was [DURATION]. Key challenge was [CHALLENGE]. We succeeded by [APPROACH]. Quote from client: "[QUOTE]"

Celebrate the client, not me. Authentic tone, no humping.

The Biggest Tips (From Someone Who Learned the Hard Way)

**Be specific about tone.** "Professional but friendly" works better than "good"
**Include constraints.** "Under 200 words" or "3 bullet points" gets usable output
**Iterate.** First draft rarely perfect. "Make it more casual" or "add more urgency" are valid
**Review everything.** AI makes things up. Always verify numbers, dates, facts.
**Train it on your style.** Uploading past emails helps ChatGPT sound like you.

What Hasn't Worked

Asking for scripts verbatim (too generic)
Expecting perfect output on first try (editing is part of the process)
Using client names/details in prompts (use placeholders instead)
Relying on it for advice that requires legal judgment (contracts, disclosures)
