Would you trust AI to find real estate for you to buy or rent?

2•D___R___•3mo ago
I’m curious how people feel about delegating real estate search to AI — not just filtering listings, but actually understanding your needs, preferences, and constraints.

Imagine an AI system that: - Knows your budget, commute, lifestyle, and personal priorities - Analyzes thousands of listings and filters out irrelevant ones - Evaluates each option by multiple factors (price dynamics, neighborhood safety, infrastructure, noise, air quality, etc.) - Provides only the few listings that truly match what you want - Explains why each recommendation fits you

Would you trust such a system to handle your property search or even make recommendations automatically? Or would you still prefer to review and decide manually?

I’m exploring how much trust people would give an AI agent for property search and evaluation, and what concerns might stop them from using it.

> I’m curious how people feel about delegating real estate search to AI — not just filtering listings, but actually understanding your needs, preferences, and constraints.

I don't think that there exists a system that can actually understand those things.

John, thanks for your comment. I’ve been in real estate for about 10 years, studying how people actually make decisions and helping them choose the right property. Recently, launched a platform that uses deep analysis to evaluate listings before you see them, showing only the ones that genuinely match your needs and lifestyle. We’re constantly running tests and experiments.
JohnFen•3mo ago
What I doubt is that AI can provide a useful enough insight into my needs and desires so as to be able find appropriate real estate for me. It's not about evaluating listings, it's about the ability to evaluate me well enough. Even if it theoretically could (which I doubt), how could it possibly learn enough about me to actually do that? It would have to know me as well as my close friends do.

So, I guess me answer is no, I don't think AI can be very useful for this sort of thing.

D___R___•3mo ago
Thanks, John. I really appreciate your thoughtful reply and totally understand your point. The idea isn’t to replace human understanding, but to let you share the key things that matter to you, so the system can surface only the most relevant options. The more facts and context it has, the more accurate the results become.
CableNinja•3mo ago
Id rather have an AI that can filter out the bullshit scams and actually find me something thats not wasting my time.

Ive been tryin to move out of this place for like 2 years, free time is a factor, but the other half is that every other listing i find is either a scam, seems like a scam, or the rent is so absurdly high for an area it doesnt make sense to be.

D___R___•3mo ago
Thanks, that’s a really great idea, I’ve noted it down. You’re absolutely right. Filtering out fake listings or negative landlord/seller histories can save a lot of time, money, and nerves.
thomasrp•3mo ago
Scam listings are the worst. I work at https://stream.estate (we're trying to solve this with data analysis), but honestly even with all our filters, your gut is still the best scam detector. The easy tells: price way below market, stock photos, vague addresses, or pushy requests for money before viewing.
gus_massa•3mo ago
It may be good to make a few recommendations, but I'd make the final decision manually.
recursivecaveat•3mo ago
Nobody is going to lock in the choice of where they're going to spend 12+ hours a day every day for years without reviewing the available information themself. Even if my partner did the selection themself, I would still look through their results. So the question is: "would I trust an AI to sort a list of properties?" The answer is sure. Platforms have stuff like price and location already. What they can't do is more fuzzy stuff like "has a lot of natural light". So there is some value there I think. That said I don't think there's a product. It seems like just a feature for an MLS system.
D___R___•3mo ago
That’s a really good point. Thank you. Out of curiosity what kind of insights would actually make the choice easier for you? Which criteria or factors would you personally find most useful when evaluating properties?
