Give an AI assistant a buyer's exact payment and school brief and let it suggest neighborhoods you missed
Nyia Johnson, a Real Brokerage agent in North Carolina (Journey Home NC Realty Group), in HousingWire
She gave Real's AI assistant, Leo, the client's brief (a payment under $1,700 a month within 20 minutes of a specific school), and it came back with a community she had only kind of considered. She then ran the numbers herself before showing it.
Leo is Real Brokerage's in-house assistant for its agents; no price is given. Outside Real, the steps use ChatGPT: ChatGPT Free $0; Go $8/mo; Plus $20/mo; Pro $100/mo

Leo (Real Brokerage's AI assistant)
The problem
A client had very specific needs and a strict budget, and finding homes that fit both took time while other buyers moved fast.
What happened
Self-reported: the clients fell in love with the property and made an offer the next day. She now routinely uses Leo to find properties, which she says lets her and her clients act faster. No time figures are given.

How to set it up yourself
- What Nyia Johnson does: she gives Leo, Real Brokerage's AI assistant, the buyer's full brief (monthly payment cap, distance to a school) and asks where to look; she checks the numbers herself before taking the client out.
- If you're not with Real, use ChatGPT: start a chat and paste the prompt below with the buyer's must-haves, the payment cap and the commute or school limit. Leave out the client's name and finances beyond what's needed.
- Check every suggestion yourself in the MLS: current listings, HOA dues, taxes, and any builder incentives on new construction, since the AI doesn't know today's inventory.
- Run the payment with your lender before the showing, then send the client a short list with your own notes.
