Full Series Rung 1: The AI Reality Check Rung 2: From Chatbot to Workflow Rung 3: From Workflow to System Rung 4: The Supervised Automation Stack Rung 5: Agentic Real Estate

TL;DR SUMMARY

An AI that knows you is not the same as an AI that can run one job the same way every time.
Pick a workflow with the five audit signals: Repeat, Wait, Search, Rewrite, Handoff.
Write a five-part AI Job Card: outcome, approved inputs, required steps, output format, stop and approval rules.
Run it on fictional data, break it on purpose, correct it, before it ever touches a real client.
Nothing sends itself. The licensed professional reviews every draft.

// Introduction

What This Class Does.

The first course helped real estate professionals onboard an AI platform with their professional background, voice, working style, trusted knowledge, rules, and limitations. This class moves agents from individual prompts and conversations into a repeatable, human-supervised real estate workflow. It is practical and vendor neutral. The same framework runs on ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or a comparable platform, and the licensed professional stays responsible for every client-facing result.

// Who It Is For

Come If This Is You.

You attended rung 1, or watched it on SRAR On Demand.
You have used ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini more than a handful of times.
You have at least one process that repeats every week and still runs on memory, sticky notes, and good intentions.

// Outcomes

You Leave Able To.

Pick one low-risk, high-repeat workflow using the five audit signals: Repeat, Wait, Search, Rewrite, Handoff.
Write a five-part AI Job Card for it: outcome, approved inputs, required steps, output format, and stop and approval rules.
Run the workflow end to end on a fictional data set, break it on purpose, and correct it before it ever touches a real client.
Tell the difference between a manual AI workflow you run and an automation the CRM runs, and know which one you need right now.

The Open House Follow-Up Workstation

Inputs: the five onboarding files from rung 1 (who I am, how I sound, how I work, what I know, what I will not do), a fictional sign-in sheet of eight invented visitors, the Job Card below, and the fictional listing basics.

JOB: Open House Follow-Up OUTCOME: Every visitor from today's open house gets a personal follow-up draft, a CRM note, and a next step, ready for my review within 20 minutes of closing the door. APPROVED INPUTS: My five files. The sign-in sheet I paste in. The listing fact sheet I paste in. Nothing else. If a fact is not in these, label it MISSING. REQUIRED STEPS: 1. Summarize each visitor in one line. 2. Rank by buying signals stated in their notes only. 3. Draft one text (under 60 words) and one email (under 120 words) per visitor in my voice. 4. Write a CRM note per visitor: source, timeline, area, financing status if stated, next step. 5. Write call prep for the top two: three questions to ask, one thing not to assume. 6. Recommend tasks with dates. OUTPUT FORMAT: One block per visitor in this order: Summary, Rank, Text draft, Email draft, CRM note, Task. Then: Call prep (top two). Then: FACTS TO VERIFY. Then: COMPLIANCE CHECK. STOP AND APPROVAL RULES: Do not infer age, family status, religion, national origin, disability, or any protected characteristic from names or notes. Do not mention price flexibility, seller motivation, or offer strategy. Do not promise showings or availability. Do not send anything. I review every draft before it goes out.

What comes out: eight visitor blocks each with a text draft, an email draft, a CRM note, and a dated task, call prep for the top two, a FACTS TO VERIFY list, a COMPLIANCE CHECK list, and after a planted error, a flagged item, a new rule, and a clean re-run.

The fictional practice sign-in sheet

Eight invented visitors, so you can practice without touching real client data. Two are traps on purpose.

Visitor	Notes as written on the clipboard
Visitor 1	Lives in Saugus, renting, wants a yard, "this year if rates cooperate"
Visitor 2	Neighbor two doors down, "just curious what these go for"
Visitor 3	Relocating from Simi for work, needs to be in by January, pre-approved
Visitor 4	Has an agent already, said the name, did not say the brokerage
Visitor 5	Investor, asked about rents, asked if seller would take less
Visitor 6	Wants to sell a condo in Canyon Country first, then buy
Visitor 7	Asked about schools and "is this a good area for kids"
Visitor 8	No notes. Signed in and left.

Traps: Visitor 5 asks whether the seller would take less, no price or motivation signal, ever. Visitor 7 asks whether the area is good for kids, no characterization of the area or its people; point to published sources and move on.

The low-risk test

Run this on any task before it becomes a workflow. One failed check means it is not your first workflow.

The draft does not require a license to produce.
It does not touch confidential data, or the brokerage has approved the platform and its settings.
The source is reliable and it is mine.
The result is reversible. It is a draft. Nothing sends.
A named person approves before a client sees it. That person is me.

// Seven-Day Challenge

Under Thirty Minutes A Day.

Day 1: pick the workflow. Five-signal audit, low-risk test.
Day 2: write the Job Card, all five parts.
Day 3: build the workspace. Five files plus the card.
Day 4: run it on the fictional sheet.
Day 5: break it on purpose. Write the correction as a rule.
Day 6: save the rules to file five. Run it clean.
Day 7: first real run, with your review on every draft.

// Safeguards

The Rules That Do Not Move.

Privacy: real visitor names, phone numbers, and notes do not go into a public consumer AI until your brokerage approves the platform and its settings. Practice on the fictional sheet.
Fair housing: the Job Card forbids inferring protected characteristics and forbids steering language. The critique step checks for both. HUD advertising guidance is the word list.
Verification: every draft returns a FACTS TO VERIFY list. You confirm property facts against the MLS, tax record, or seller disclosure, not the model.
Licensee responsibility: the licensed professional is responsible for every word a client receives. The AI drafts. You approve. Nothing sends itself in this class.
California DRE AI Advisory: supervision, advertising, privacy, fair housing, altered images, and legal interpretation. The class maps each stop rule to the advisory.

Every rung of the series runs the S.A.F.E. gate before anything leaves the office. Sensitive information removed. Accuracy confirmed through reliable sources. Fair housing and fiduciary responsibilities protected. Everything properly disclosed and approved.

// FAQ

Questions Agents Ask.

AGENT

Do I need rung 1 before this class?

It helps. Rung 1 builds the five files this class loads into the workstation. If you missed it, watch the recording on SRAR On Demand and build the files with the rung 1 resource page. Thirty minutes of homework gets you current.

AGENT

Which AI platform do I need?

Any major one with a project or workspace feature. ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini all have one. The class is vendor neutral. Bring whichever your brokerage allows.

AGENT

Is this the same as CRM automation?

No. This is a workstation you run by hand, on purpose. Automation is rung 4. Running it by hand first is how you learn what to supervise later.

AGENT

Can I use real open house data in class?

No. The live build uses a fictional sheet. Use fictional data at home until your brokerage has approved the platform and its privacy settings.

BRING THE WORKFLOW. LEAVE WITH THE FIRST MOVE.

Book a free 30-minute AI architecture conversation.

Connor will send a short questionnaire before the call. Bring the task that repeats, the process that stalls, the system that leaks money, or the online identity that refuses to line up. The answer may be automation, coaching, a Meta campaign, MachineFound, a private brokerage system, a better template, or deleting a broken step. The diagnosis comes first.

When appropriate, Connor is comfortable discussing a mutual NDA before reviewing proprietary workflows or business ideas.
