Real estate agent: capabilities

What the Guidia agent does for an agency, in Chat, in Live (voice) and on WhatsApp, with your properties and your agents.

≈ 6 min read

The agent only talks about properties in your catalog (entered manually, imported from CSV/Excel or synced from Property Finder or Bayut). It never relies on made-up data. Dubai is only an example: units, currencies and rules follow the property's country.

Advise and present

  • Natural discovery: buy or rent, budget and rental period, location, bedrooms, size, timeline. It remembers the visitor's choices and reminds them in the next conversation (it asks before reapplying them).
  • Strict search: the visitor's criteria are never silently relaxed; sales and rentals are never mixed.
  • Photo and video albums, floor plans, 360° tour and brochure when available; it goes back to a specific room on request.
  • Comparison of 2 to 3 properties (price, size, price per m², bedrooms), property map, nearby places and travel times.
  • Indicative currency conversion, dated and sourced.
  • Off-plan projects: the developer's payment plan, step by step.
  • Mortgage calculator: monthly payment, down payment, estimated purchase costs. Always presented as indicative, never as a bank offer. Configurable by the agency (country rules, rate, term, down payment, maximum financing, fees).

Viewings

  • Real slots taken from the Google or Microsoft 365 calendar of the property's agent (working hours minus their appointments), or from Calendly or the agency's own system.
  • The visitor picks the slot and the mode (in person or video), reviews the summary and confirms it themselves. The agent only announces a viewing once there is a real receipt.
  • Cancellation: only the visitor can cancel, in two clicks (widget) or two buttons (WhatsApp). The event is removed from the calendar and the visitor is notified.
  • Rescheduling: same agent, same property. The old viewing stays booked until the new one is confirmed, then it is cancelled automatically.
  • The property's agent and the agency receive a "Viewing cancelled" or "Viewing rescheduled" email.
  • A returning visitor sees their upcoming viewings, without a booking number.

Leads and follow-up

  • Name, email and phone number requested verbally in Live and through a form in Chat, according to your settings (required, optional or not requested) in Branding.
  • Lead created with a factual summary, the properties involved and the next step; routed to the property's agent, the agency or both.
  • Email alerts (English, French, Arabic), delivery to your CRM or webhook, weekly reports.
  • Continue on WhatsApp: direct link, or an approved template message sent from your number (configurable in /admin/whatsapp).
  • Agency dashboard: conversations, leads, viewings, top-performing properties and agents, channels, Live quality.

Property Finder and portals

  • Connection with an Enterprise API key, under Products > Real estate. Countries covered: United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Qatar, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia.
  • Read: listings, photos, price and rental period, converted sizes, listing agent, portal leads.
  • Write (if allowed): always after an administrator's confirmation, with an audit trail.
  • Property Finder / Bayut duplicates detected; advertising permits displayed according to the country.

What the agent never does

  • Confirm or cancel a viewing on the visitor's behalf.
  • Promise a price, a mortgage or an availability that has not been verified (availability synced more than 30 minutes ago must be confirmed by the agency).
  • Reveal agents' private contact details: only their name and photo are public.
