AI-agents in real estate: how to convert more leads and streamline the buyer journey

In Dubai’s fast-paced real estate market, companies receive hundreds of property inquiries every day. Buyers expect instant answers about availability, pricing, financing options, and next steps, often outside business hours and in multiple languages. For real estate agents, this creates an enormous workload: qualifying leads, answering (repetitive) questions, scheduling viewings, and chasing prospects who have become unresponsive. Without automation and the right workflows, real estate companies risk losing both efficiency and valuable opportunities. HALO, CM.com’s Agentic AI-powered platform, can transform these processes by streamlining the entire workflow. Besides, AI-agents work 24/7, deliver human-like responses, and handle inquiries instantly. They qualify leads, streamline routine tasks, and free up real estate agents to focus on what really matters: closing deals and building stronger client relationships.
