Quick answer: The best AI receptionist for real estate agents answers calls 24/7, routes each caller to the right agent, books showings, writes to a real-estate CRM and texts after hours, without steering. Zian AI is our pick; LeadsNow.ai is done-for-you. Of seven rivals checked on 22 October 2026, five documented all five jobs.
Disclosure: zian.ai publishes this guide and ranks Zian, our product, first; LeadsNow.ai runs on Zian. Every other vendor fact was read on that vendor’s own pages, or the CRM’s own directory, on 22 October 2026. No vendor paid to be included. This is general information on US federal rules, not legal advice.
Where Zian fits for a US real estate team
Zian AI is our pick for agents and teams who want one AI on the phone line and on the follow-up: it answers inbound calls 24/7 as an AI receptionist (qualifying the caller, booking, transferring and taking messages), then follows up by voice call, SMS, email, WhatsApp, Instagram DMs and Facebook Messenger. LeadsNow.ai is the done-for-you choice for teams that want booked appointments without running the software themselves.
The sign call, the Zillow enquiry and the Instagram DM are often the same buyer. Zian’s SmartReach AI™ orchestrates the message, channel and timing of each follow-up, and PrecisionPitch AI™ continuously split-tests scripts against booked outcomes rather than text quality. Zian works in 30+ languages, handles answering machines and voicemail on calls, connects to calendars, knowledge bases and CRMs (HubSpot, Salesforce, HighLevel and Zapier are the ones it names), and reports 50,769+ qualified sales appointments set and a 2,736% increase in lead contact rates. The honest gap: Zian names no real-estate CRM, does not publish how its transfer rules are set, and is in a partnership-application beta with no public price; each of its three listed plans, including Intel + Widgets (Free Forever), starts with a partnership application.
What an AI receptionist for real estate agents has to do
An agent’s receptionist has six jobs, roughly in the order money is lost when one fails.
- Answer the sign call while you are in a showing. If nobody answers, the next listing the buyer looks at has another agent’s number on it.
- Call back portal enquiries fast. Zillow and Realtor.com enquiries typically reach a team as lead records. Follow Up Boss’s own Zillow page says the buyer’s “contact information is transferred over to the Zillow Premier Agent” and notes that Zillow buyers are “being put into contact with multiple different agents. That means that follow up speed is absolutely critical,” and its Realtor.com page says it pulls those leads in “from the email notifications they send you.” So for those leads the AI starts from the CRM record, and the call it makes is outbound, which brings the TCPA into scope (see below). See speed to lead with AI agents for timing.
- Route the caller to the right person. A caller about 14 Elm Street often wants the listing agent; a caller who “just wants to see some houses” is a buyer lead for whoever is up next. That is a routing rule, not a guess.
- Book the showing. Either onto an agent’s calendar or as a request that the agent confirms through the listing side’s showing system. ShowingTime describes itself as “a suite of showing management and market data tools for agents, teams, brokers and MLSs”; none of the rival pages we opened names a ShowingTime connection (a Smith.ai blog post lists ShowingTime among real-estate apps), and neither does Zian, as at 22 October 2026.
- Qualify without steering. Budget, pre-approval, timeline and the areas the caller names are fair questions; describing who lives in a neighbourhood is not.
- Write everything back to the CRM. Follow Up Boss, kvCORE/BoldTrail, Lofty and Sierra Interactive are among the CRMs US teams work in; notes that land in a separate inbox become a second database nobody checks.
How we scored each AI receptionist
Inclusion rule, applied to every row. A product qualified if its own pages show an AI voice agent handling US real-estate leads by phone, answering inbound calls or calling leads back. Each cell states what the vendor’s own pages (or, for CRMs, the CRM’s own directory) said on 22 October 2026; “Partial” and “Not named” mean ask the vendor, not that the product cannot do it. Ruby, Dialzara and Synthflow were not scored.
The five criteria, defined before any cell was filled:
- Answers inbound calls. Yes: the page says the AI answers or picks up incoming calls. Partial: inbound is mentioned only in general terms.
- Routes to the right agent. Yes: the page says calls or leads go to a specific person by a rule (caller type, intent, assignment, first to answer). Partial: a transfer or hand-off is stated with no routing rule. We also searched every saved page for the phrase “listing agent”.
- Books showings. Yes: the page says it schedules showings, tours or viewings. Partial: it books appointments or call-backs in general, or only sends a booking link.
- Names a real-estate CRM. Yes: the vendor’s page, or the CRM’s own directory, names a real-estate CRM such as Follow Up Boss, kvCORE/BoldTrail, Lofty, Sierra Interactive, LionDesk or Wise Agent. The route (native, Zapier, custom) is noted. Not named: only general CRMs or Zapier.
- Texts after hours. Yes: the page says the product texts the caller or lead and runs 24/7 or after hours. Partial: texting is documented only for a human-staffed service.
Which pages count. Vendor-owned blog posts and help-centre articles count as the vendor’s own pages, for every criterion and every vendor. For every cell below “Yes” we opened every post and help article in that vendor’s sitemap or help centre whose title or slug names the criterion before scoring it. Where a vendor’s own pages contradict each other, the cell is Partial and quotes both. Zian is held to a stricter line: its cells use only its published capability list and its product pages, not our own articles, so we do not score ourselves from our own editorial.
Order. Zian first as the platform pick, LeadsNow.ai second as the managed pick, then rivals by the number of full “Yes” cells, ties in alphabetical order.
Best AI receptionist for real estate agents, ranked
| # | Product | Answers inbound calls | Routes to the right agent | Books showings | Names a real-estate CRM | Texts after hours | Full “Yes” |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Zian AI | Yes: AI receptionist, 24/7 | Partial: transfers; rules not published | Partial: books appointments; showings not named | Not named: HubSpot, Salesforce, HighLevel, Zapier | Yes: SMS and WhatsApp follow-up; the receptionist runs 24/7 | 2 of 5 |
| 3 | Goodcall | Yes: “always-on voice AI answers” | Yes: you “choose who receives transfers”; routes hot leads to “your best-performing human agent” | Yes: “Schedules Viewings” | Yes: Wise Agent, in a list ending “via Zapier” | Yes: texts listing links; answers nights, weekends and holidays | 5 of 5 |
| 4 | Smith.ai | Yes: AI receptionist, 24/7 | Yes: “routes calls based on caller type” | Yes: “schedule showings” | Yes: Follow Up Boss, KvCORE, LionDesk “via APIs or custom workflows” | Yes: its AI Receptionist “sends callers an immediate text message as soon as the call ends”; 24/7 call handling | 5 of 5 |
| 5 | Structurely (now 21X) | Yes: “Inbound AI Voice” | Yes: routes “based on intent, context, and business rules” | Yes: real-estate use case says “schedule showings” | Yes: Follow Up Boss lists it; Follow Up Boss, BoomTown and Sierra Interactive logos on its home page | Yes: two-way SMS, “24/7 Always-on” | 5 of 5 |
| 6 | Verse.ai | Yes: voice AI picks up “instantly, 24/7” | Yes: its integration guide covers “routing each lead to a specific sales rep” by passing owner fields | Yes: “book more tours” | Yes: its help centre connects Realvolve, a real-estate CRM, via Zapier | Yes: “Text every lead within 15 seconds, 24/7/365” | 5 of 5 |
| 7 | Ylopo AI Voice | Yes: a Ylopo post says “Our system answers inbound calls in real time” | Yes: “assigns leads to the first agent who picks up” | Yes: a Ylopo post on its AI voice agent says it “books showings straight onto the calendar” | Yes: Follow Up Boss required for AI Voice; Sierra, Lofty and others for AI Text | Yes: AI Text “Texts 24/7” | 5 of 5 |
| 8 | Agent Legend | Yes: its help centre says Hazel’s greeting is “Used for text conversations and inbound calls when Call AI is enabled” | Yes: hands off “to whoever you assign” | Partial: “Books directly into your calendar”; showings not named | Yes: Follow Up Boss, BoldTrail, kvCORE, Lofty; Follow Up Boss lists it | Yes: text, “Responses handled in real time, 24/7” | 4 of 5 |
| 9 | Rosie | Yes: answers every call, 24/7 | Yes: Scale plan routes “calls to the right person” | Partial: its real-estate page says Rosie “schedules showings”, but the FAQ on that page says she “can’t schedule property showings directly” and sends links | Yes: native Follow Up Boss connection in its help centre, logging “every call Rosie answers” | Yes: “Send appointment links by text”, 24/7 | 4 of 5 |
Read across the table: all eight software rows text leads after hours and answer inbound calls, seven publish a routing rule, seven name a real-estate CRM and five say they book showings. No page we opened describes routing to the listing agent by name (the “listing agent” sentences we found, in Ylopo blog posts, describe AI tools and chatbots in general), so on every row, including Zian, listing-agent routing is something you configure and test, not a feature you can tick.
2. LeadsNow.ai: best done-for-you option
LeadsNow.ai is a managed AI appointment-setting and lead-generation service that runs on Zian. It works on a pay-per-result basis, answers leads in under 60 seconds, 24/7, and reports 50,769+ AI-booked appointments. Choose it if nobody on the team has time to write scripts, set routing rules and watch the transcripts.
Who each AI receptionist suits, and who it is wrong for
| # | Option | Best for | Weaker, from its own pages | Wrong for you if… |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Zian AI | Teams that want the receptionist and the follow-up in one agent: inbound answering, booking, transfers and messages, then six follow-up channels, with SmartReach AI™ choosing the next touch | Beta with no public price; no real-estate CRM named, so the route into Follow Up Boss or Lofty is Zapier or HighLevel | You need a published price today, or a native Follow Up Boss app with no Zapier or HighLevel step |
| 2 | LeadsNow.ai | Teams that want booked appointments without running software | Managed service, so you do not tune the agent yourself | You want to write and tune the scripts yourself |
| 3 | Goodcall | A solo agent who wants viewings booked on the call: it “schedules appointments by checking your availability in real-time” and texts listing links | Names Wise Agent in the sentence “Goodcall connects with HubSpot, Go High Level, Wise Agent and thousands more apps via Zapier”; not in Follow Up Boss’s directory | You need a native, two-way Follow Up Boss or kvCORE connection |
| 4 | Smith.ai | Offices where some calls need a person: AI and live receptionists, routed “based on caller type”, with a text to the caller after each AI call | Its Follow Up Boss page is for its Outreach Campaigns product (staffed outbound calling), not the AI Receptionist; its CRM connections are “via APIs or custom workflows” | You need a native app listed in Follow Up Boss’s directory |
| 5 | Structurely (now 21X) | Teams already in Follow Up Boss, where it is an embedded app; its real-estate use case is to “schedule showings, and route high-intent conversations” | Follow Up Boss’s own listing describes it engaging leads “over text and email” | You need voice calls logged in Follow Up Boss and have not confirmed that they are |
| 6 | Verse.ai | Text-first speed to lead: “every lead receives a reply within just 90 seconds”, and CallConnect™ moves a qualified text into a live call | The CRMs it names include no agent CRM such as Follow Up Boss or kvCORE on the pages we opened; its real-estate CRM route is Realvolve via Zapier, and its builder integrations page cites “today’s top homebuilder CRMs” | You need a native Follow Up Boss or kvCORE integration |
| 7 | Ylopo AI Voice | Teams whose leads Ylopo already generates; it “Operates Monday-Saturday 8AM-8PM, Sunday 9AM-8PM”, inside the federal 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. window | Lists “Follow Up Boss (required for AI Voice)” and “Must have AI Text to access AI Voice” | You do not use Follow Up Boss and Ylopo AI Text |
| 8 | Agent Legend | Working an existing database: Hazel “reaches out, qualifies and books appointments across text, email and phone” | Inbound answering is documented as a campaign setting: its help centre says Hazel’s greeting is used for “inbound calls when Call AI is enabled”, in an AI Powered Campaign on an AI Powered plan; its site pages say only “Inbound. Outbound.” | You want every call to your office line answered and have not confirmed how Call AI handles callers who are not in a campaign |
| 9 | Rosie | Low-touch answering for a single agent, with custom questions such as pre-approval and budget, and a native Follow Up Boss call log | Its real-estate FAQ says Rosie “can’t schedule property showings directly”, though a December 2025 Rosie post announces direct booking into Google Calendar and other calendars | You want showings booked on the call and cannot test it first |

Which CRM connections we could confirm from both sides
We checked Follow Up Boss’s integrations sitemap on 22 October 2026 (positive control: Structurely, Ylopo, Agent Legend, Zapier and HLApps are all in it). BoldTrail’s marketplace page is script-rendered and we could not read its listings, and Lofty’s integrations page does not render its partner list as text; it says Lofty “has an open API” and “supports Zapier connections.” So for kvCORE/BoldTrail and Lofty we report only what each vendor says.
| Product | Real-estate CRMs on the vendor’s own pages | In Follow Up Boss’s directory? | Route a team would use | Pages read |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zian AI | None named; HubSpot, Salesforce, HighLevel, Zapier | No | Zapier (Follow Up Boss lists Zapier), or HighLevel bridged by HLApps, which Follow Up Boss lists | zian.ai/features-integrations (Zian’s own page) |
| Goodcall | Wise Agent, in a list ending “via Zapier” | No | Zapier, per the page wording; confirm | goodcall.com real estate |
| Structurely (21X) | Logos: Follow Up Boss, BoomTown, Sierra Interactive | Yes: embedded app, installed with a Follow Up Boss API key | Native | followupboss.com/integrations/structurely |
| Smith.ai | Follow Up Boss, KvCORE, LionDesk | No | “APIs or custom workflows” | smith.ai real estate |
| Agent Legend | Follow Up Boss, BoldTrail, kvCORE, Lofty, BoomTown, CINC | Yes: “direct integration” | Native | followupboss.com/integrations/agent-legend |
| Rosie | Follow Up Boss (help centre: calls logged on the matching person) | No | Native, with a Follow Up Boss API key | Rosie help: Follow Up Boss |
| Verse.ai | Realvolve (help centre, via Zapier); integrations page lists HighLevel, HubSpot, Salesforce, Zapier, Calendly | No | Zapier, email parsing or the Verse API | Verse help: Realvolve |
| Ylopo AI Voice | Follow Up Boss (required for AI Voice); LionDesk, Firepoint, Sierra, Lofty, Zoho (AI Text) | Yes: “AI text & voice” | Native | ylopo.com/ai-for-real-estate |
Three of the eight products appear in Follow Up Boss’s directory. Rosie also connects natively with a Follow Up Boss API key without being listed. For the other rows, including Zian, the route into Follow Up Boss is Zapier, which Follow Up Boss says connects it “with 3,000+ apps”, or a custom API build. Test that the call summary, booked showing and assigned agent all land on the right Follow Up Boss person. If your team runs on HighLevel already, our missed-call text-back setup in HighLevel shows the HighLevel side of that workflow.
The CRM may already sell an AI: Lofty markets “Your very own virtual ISA, working 24/7,” and Follow Up Boss promotes FUB AI. Price those against any add-on.
The Fair Housing safe-answer table
The Fair Housing Act makes it unlawful to make any “statement … with respect to the sale or rental of a dwelling that indicates any preference, limitation, or discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin” (42 U.S.C. 3604(c)). HUD’s regulation applies that to “all written or oral notices or statements by a person engaged in the sale or rental of a dwelling” (24 CFR 100.75(b)). An AI answering your phone speaks for you. HUD’s overview page lists the seven protected characteristics as race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status and disability. The single-family owner exemption does not help an agent: it applies only to a house sold or rented “without the use in any manner of the sales or rental facilities or the sales or rental services of any real estate broker, agent, or salesman,” and neither exemption in that section reaches 3604(c), the statements rule (42 U.S.C. 3603(b)).
HUD’s steering rule is the easiest for an AI to trip. Its examples include discouraging anyone from inspecting, buying or renting a home because of a protected characteristic of the buyer or “of persons in a community, neighborhood or development”; “exaggerating drawbacks or failing to inform any person of desirable features”; and “Communicating to any prospective purchaser that he or she would not be comfortable or compatible with existing residents” because of a protected characteristic (24 CFR 100.70(c)(1) to (3)).
| The caller asks | What the AI may say | What it declines or routes | Rule it touches |
|---|---|---|---|
| “Is this a good neighbourhood for families?” | Facts from the listing: bedrooms, lot size, the school district the listing names, and a pointer to that district’s own website | Any description of who lives there, or whether the caller would fit in; route opinions to the agent | 24 CFR 100.70(c)(3); 100.75(c)(1); familial status |
| “What are the people like there?” or “Is it a diverse area?” | “I can’t describe neighbourhoods by who lives there, but I can send you the listing details and book a showing.” | The demographic question itself; log it and hand to the agent | 24 CFR 100.70(c)(1) to (3) |
| “Would someone like me be comfortable there?” | The same script, unchanged for every caller | Any answer about comfort or compatibility with residents | 24 CFR 100.70(c)(3), which uses those words |
| “Is it still available?” | The live listing status, worded the same way for every caller | Nothing; never vary availability by caller | 42 U.S.C. 3604(d) |
| “Is it a 55+ community?” or “Are children allowed?” | The age restriction exactly as the listing or community publishes it | Eligibility questions; the agent confirms the community’s status | 42 U.S.C. 3607(b), the housing-for-older-persons exemption |
| “I use a wheelchair” or “I have a service animal” | Note the need and offer the same showing times as anyone else | Questions about the nature or severity of a disability; route accommodation requests to the agent | 24 CFR 100.202(c) |
| (The AI’s own qualifying questions) | Budget, pre-approval, timeline, size, and the areas the caller names | Never ask about children, religion, origin or disability | 24 CFR 100.75(c)(2); 100.202(c) |
Two limits of that table, stated plainly. The housing-for-older-persons exemption has three routes, not one: state or federal elderly programmes, housing “intended for, and solely occupied by, persons 62 years of age or older,” or 55+ housing where at least 80 percent of occupied units have a resident aged 55 or over, the community publishes and follows its age policies, and it complies with HUD’s occupancy verification rules (42 U.S.C. 3607(b)(2)). And the disability enquiry rule has exceptions for questions asked of every applicant, such as their ability to meet the requirements of ownership (24 CFR 100.202(c)(1) to (5)). The federal Act does not invalidate state or local laws that grant, guarantee or protect the same rights (42 U.S.C. 3615), so check your state and local fair housing law and add any further classes it protects to the “never ask” row.
On enforcement, HUD’s overview page now says it is “Prioritizing cases with actual, provable instances of discrimination.” The statute and the regulations quoted above remain in the current Code of Federal Regulations, and a recorded AI call is a record of exactly what was said.
Load the table into the AI’s instructions, test it with the first column before launch, and read transcripts weekly. In one line: an AI receptionist may describe the house, but never the people.
Can an AI receptionist call and text my Zillow leads back?
Answering is the easy half. In a September 2024 proposed rule the FCC wrote that the TCPA’s prohibition on artificial or prerecorded voice messages “extends only to outbound calls” and that “The TCPA’s requirements do not extend to technologies used to answer inbound calls” (89 FR 73321, 10 September 2024). That is a proposal’s explanation, not a rule; a Federal Register search of FCC documents for “AI-generated call” returns only that proposal as at 22 October 2026. It also records the FCC’s AI Declaratory Ruling, “in which the Commission found that AI and other technologies that generate human voices fall within the TCPA.”
Calling back is where the rules bite. Under 47 CFR 64.1200, read on eCFR on 22 October 2026:
- Any AI-voice call to a cell phone needs the called party’s prior express consent, unless it is an emergency call or falls within one of the FCC’s narrow exemptions for calls that are free to the called person (64.1200(a)(1)(iii) and (a)(9)).
- If the call is telemarketing, defined as a call “for the purpose of encouraging the purchase or rental of, or investment in, property, goods, or services” (64.1200(f)(13)), the AI-voice call to a cell phone or a residential line needs prior express written consent, with narrow exceptions for nonprofits and HIPAA health-care messages (64.1200(a)(2) and (a)(3)). A callback offering to show a buyer homes fits those words, so treat it as telemarketing unless your attorney says otherwise.
- Prior express written consent is a written agreement bearing the person’s signature (an e-signature counts) that clearly authorises the seller to deliver advertisements or telemarketing messages using an autodialer or an artificial or prerecorded voice, names the phone number, and discloses that signing authorises those calls and is not a condition of buying anything (64.1200(f)(9)). Our post on online checkbox consent tests a portal or website form against those elements.
- The one-to-one consent rule is not in force. The Eleventh Circuit vacated it on 24 January 2025 in Insurance Marketing Coalition v. FCC (No. 24-10277), holding that its one-seller and “logically and topically associated” restrictions conflict with the statute. The court’s mandate issued on 30 April 2025 and the FCC restored the earlier wording of (f)(9) effective 29 August 2025 (90 FR 42137). Prior express written consent itself still applies.
- Calling hours and Do Not Call. No telephone solicitation to a residential subscriber before 8 a.m. or after 9 p.m., local time at the called party’s location (64.1200(c)(1)), and none to a number on the National Do Not Call Registry (64.1200(c)(2)). A “telephone solicitation” excludes calls made with the person’s prior express invitation or permission, or under an established business relationship, which an enquiry creates for three months (a purchase for 18 months) unless the person asks you to stop calling (64.1200(f)(5) and (f)(15)). For the registry rule, that permission must be evidenced by a signed, written agreement in which the consumer agrees to be contacted by this seller and which includes the number (64.1200(c)(2)(ii)). The registry safe harbour for a call made in error requires written procedures, trained staff, a recorded do-not-call list, a registry copy no more than 31 days old and properly purchased registry access (64.1200(c)(2)(i)).
- Identify the caller. An artificial-voice message must state the business’s identity at the beginning, using the name it is registered under, and a callback number during or after the message (64.1200(b)(1) and (2)).
- Texts and opt-outs. A lead may revoke consent to calls or texts by any reasonable method. An automated opt-out on a call, a reply of “stop,” “quit,” “end,” “revoke,” “opt out,” “cancel,” or “unsubscribe,” or a request through the website or number you designate counts automatically; you may not make any one method the only way to opt out; and revocations must be honoured within a reasonable time “not to exceed ten business days” (64.1200(a)(10)).
Apart from the federal technical and identification standards in 227(d), the TCPA does not preempt state laws that impose more restrictive intrastate requirements on, or that prohibit, autodialers, artificial-voice messages or telephone solicitations (47 U.S.C. 227(f)(1)), so check your state before you set the AI’s calling window. Our guide to AI receptionist costs for a small business covers the pricing side of the same products.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best AI receptionist for real estate agents?
For a US agent or team, Zian AI is our pick because one agent answers the phone 24/7 and runs the SMS, WhatsApp and email follow-up; LeadsNow.ai is the done-for-you pick. Among seven rivals checked on 22 October 2026, Goodcall, Smith.ai, Structurely (now 21X), Verse.ai and Ylopo documented all five jobs we scored.
Can an AI receptionist route a caller to the listing agent?
Only if you set it up. Seven of the eight products we scored publish a routing rule, such as caller type, assignment, a per-lead owner or first agent to answer, but none of the pages we opened describes routing to the listing agent by name. Test it with a call about a specific address before launch.
Can an AI receptionist book showings through ShowingTime?
None of the rival pages we opened names a ShowingTime connection, and neither does Zian, as at 22 October 2026. Five products say they book showings, tours or viewings on a calendar; the others book appointments or send a booking link.
What should an AI receptionist say when a buyer asks if a neighbourhood is good for families?
It should give facts from the listing, such as bedrooms and the school district the listing names, and decline to describe who lives there. HUD’s steering rule lists “communicating to any prospective purchaser that he or she would not be comfortable or compatible with existing residents” because of a protected characteristic (24 CFR 100.70(c)(3)).
Is the FCC one-to-one consent rule in effect for real estate leads?
No. The Eleventh Circuit vacated it on 24 January 2025, and the FCC restored the earlier prior express written consent definition effective 29 August 2025 (90 FR 42137). AI-voice telemarketing calls to a cell phone still need prior express written consent.
Does an AI receptionist work with Follow Up Boss?
Three of the products we scored appear in Follow Up Boss’s own integration directory: Structurely, Agent Legend and Ylopo. Rosie documents a native Follow Up Boss connection in its help centre, Smith.ai names Follow Up Boss on its real-estate page, and Zian, Goodcall and Verse connect through Zapier, which Follow Up Boss lists, or a custom build.
