A human when it matters
True emergencies ring the on-call phone you set.
A real estate answering service answers listing and yard-sign calls when you're in a showing. Elody is an AI receptionist for realtors. It qualifies buy vs sell, property, price range, and timeline, books the callback or showing on your calendar, and texts you the details so an 8 PM driveway lead does not keep driving. Plans start at $49/mo.
Listing calls don't happen on your lunch break
A yard sign at 8 PM is a buyer in the driveway. If they get voicemail, they call the next agent on the sign down the street.
Bad option 01
You answer every showing inquiry yourself
Fine until you're at a closing, a listing appointment, or asleep.
Bad option 02
Voicemail
Hot buyers rarely leave a message. They keep driving.
Bad option 03
A generic answering service
They take a number. They don't capture property, price range, or timeline.
