How to Find Off-Market Deals With AI-Powered Title Searches
Have you ever used title reports to find off-market deals? My guest today, Tali Gross, explains how his platform, Dono.ai, can be used at scale to uncover off-market opportunities before anyone else – by using AI to read and analyze title reports. With Dono, you simply enter your search criteria (type of property, liens, divorces, back taxes, etc.), and Dono will help you scan every property that meets your requirements in a target city. You can also access detailed title search results in seconds – with no calls to title companies, no waiting on manual checks, and no human errors. Here are a few EasyWins you’ll get with Dono.ai: • Instant Property Insights: Enter an address and get an instant title snapshot. • Automated Risk Checks: Avoid costly mistakes by automatically detecting liens, ownership issues, and title gaps (shadows) within seconds. • Distressed Property Alerts: Quickly identify off-market properties with unpaid taxes or open judgments – a goldmine for off-market deals. • Tailored Search Filters: Narrow down properties by owner, tax status, or location to spot hidden investment opportunities. Dono.ai is also being used by title companies to grow without increasing manpower. But what really sets Dono.ai apart? The “Ask Dono” feature – a chatbot that lets you ‘chat’ with title reports using natural language. Dono.ai is a platform giving innovative investors a significant competitive edge. Tali explains it all in this episode you won’t want to miss. ***** The only Podcast you need on for raising capital in real estate - enhanced by AI.

Transforming Site Selection and Planning with AI
Meet Clifton Harness, the mastermind behind TestFit.io and one of the most innovative thinkers in real estate tech today. I came across Clifton’s work on LinkedIn, where he shares some seriously impressive images of TestFit’s capabilities. What TestFit does is simple yet mind-blowing: plug in a land parcel, add your development criteria, and boom – it’ll show you what’s possible and churn out real-time design options, including optimizing the parking configuration for you, tailored to your investment goals, all in seconds. It’s highly visual, super intuitive, and it’s saving developers and architects hundreds of thousands — even millions of dollars — in pre-development costs. Clifton gives us a look under the hood of TestFit, explaining how it combines real-time AI with zoning data to make site planning as streamlined as possible. This isn’t just about filling in some details and hoping for the best; TestFit allows for customization down to specific unit layouts, parking configurations, and even zoning quirks. It is a truly next-level development tool. Here are some EasyWins with TestFit.io: Generate Site Plans Fast: Input specs, get multiple optimized layouts in seconds. Perfect Your Parking: Automated layouts reduce wasted space and effort. Stay Zoning-Compliant: Seamless zoning data integration. Customize to Fit: Tailor designs for specific unit and building needs. Preview in 3D: Realistic visuals for streamlined stakeholder buy-in. If you’re in real estate and haven’t tuned into AI-powered solutions yet, this episode will be an eye-opener.

AI powered pitch decks that convert
Meet Avi Solomon and his company Pulse CRE who can make your pitch deck sing (not literally, of course, though, who knows where AI is going to take us eventually…) I came across Avi on LinkedIn, noticing his interesting posts and dry wit and so decided to learn more about him and his company. (If you want to find more clients/investors, LinkedIn is the place to be – ask me how ). Avi provides bespoke landing pages for deal pitches that are easy for users to navigate, increasing conversions. Avi and his company’s use of AI includes: Copilot for Data Visualization: Pulse CRE uses AI copilots to create interactive and dynamic graphs quickly, making the presentation of data within the deck more engaging and easier to understand. Coding Assistance: AI is used as a coding copilot to develop your deck, ensuring it is dynamic and detailed, improving the overall user experience. Future AI Chat Integration: Pulse CRE is working on integrating an AI copilot for investors, which will allow them to ‘chat’ with the deal using natural human language (a really cool feature). Image Upscaling: AI tools, such as image upscalers, are used to enhance the quality of images in the presentations, making them more professional and appealing. We build similar pages for our clients here at GowerCrowd but what makes Avi and Pulse CRE different is they build deal pages for sponsors as a standalone service (at a very reasonable cost). Avi is a bright guy and, in a world moving as fast as it is in prop-tech and AI where youth is an advantage, offers insights and ideas we can all learn from. ***** The only Podcast you need on real estate and AI.

Can AI Solve the Housing Crisis?
My YouTube show/podcast guest this week, Chris Christensen, NAR's Director of Technology Policy, is particularly interesting (not that other shows are not!) because Chris handles ‘policy’ which means much of his daily life is spent on or around The Hill in DC. Though representing the National Association of Realtors, so very much a real estate focus, Chris deals with a broad range of issues pertaining to the implementation of AI – many that go way beyond plain ol’ real estate applications. Watch (or listen) to this episode to hear Chris discussing, through the lens of policy making at the highest levels, (can you discuss something through a lens?), copyright and privacy issues amongst other things, stressing how regulation is evolving to keep up. He talks about how the NAR is actively exploring AI use cases, focusing initially on enhancing internal tools. how AI models streamline data accessibility on the NAR website, aiding in underwriting guidelines, and for member resources. There are some incredibly powerful housing data and predictive analytics that emerge as key areas where AI can provide significant value and Chris explains how NAR members will be able to access this wealth of data. Here are some highlights we discuss: AI in Real Estate: Chris explains how AI can enhance customer experience, streamline operations, and provide competitive advantages to agents who use it. Regulatory Landscape: AI’s impact on bias, copyright, and privacy, and the need for robust regulation. Practical Applications: AI's role in transaction management, zoning, tax policy, and data accessibility on the NAR website. Housing Crisis: AI's potential to improve housing affordability and liquidity (this is a biggy). And to wrap up, I ask all guests the same three questions. Here are Chris’s answers (the 3rd one is gnarly!) 1. Why should real estate investors or professionals be paying attention to AI today? Embrace Change: AI is fundamentally changing core principles of real estate. Ignoring it will be perilous, while embracing it can lead to personal and business advantages. Competitive Edge: Using AI can help you differentiate yourself among your peers, giving you a significant competitive edge. Inexpensive Solutions: Many AI solutions are not expensive, offering easy and cost-effective ways to stand out and increase efficiency. 2. How do you use AI daily? What tools and apps do you use? Note-Taking and CRM: AI tools are used for taking notes and managing customer relationships. Presentations and Writing: AI assists, like Gemini, in creating presentations and writing white papers. Image Generation: Various image generation tools are used to visualize concepts. 3. One easy win using AI for listeners/viewers to try immediately: OpenAI Covert Influence Operations Report: Chris recommends reading the recently released report on how AI is used for covert influence operations on social media.

AI's massive first mover advantage
What a pleasure it was to speak with L.D. Salmanson, Co-founder and CEO of Cherre, for this week’s podcast. Cherre is dramatically transforming real estate investment and management by leveraging cutting-edge data science and AI to consolidate massive amounts of data (including users’ own data – it’s NOT easy to do but Cherre have done it), so they can find opportunities across all aspects of their operations in seconds. L.D.’s use case examples are crazy: ‘I am looking for this kind of asset, with these exact demographics, with these kinds of tax breaks, in this type of market’ – and boom! out comes a selection for you to look at. You won’t believe what Cherre can do and, if you are anything like me, you’ll want to set up an account as soon as you finish listening! Alas, however, the tool is only being used currently by some of the top institutional investors but, L.D. assures me, making it available for mere mortals like thee and me is on their horizon. Spend a few minutes tuning in to hear one of the foremost leaders in moving real estate into the future in this episode with L.D. Salmanson. Cherre's core functions: Building detailed asset models to reduce expenses while increases revenues. Creating sensitivity tables so investors can identify optimal investment (or divestment) strategies. Connecting disparate data with advanced tools to detect anomalies and find opportunities. Key Points Discussed: Advanced Tools: Data retrieval, integrity, conversational bots, GPT Omni model for omni-channel interactions. AI Capabilities: Vision, voice, text interpretation; future potential for smell interpretation.

Don't miss L.D.'s insights on the inevitable integration of AI into real estate, the efficiencies it brings, and his use of GPT Omni to streamline presentation prep. Cherre stands as a visionary leap in data-driven real estate management. From L.D. Why should real estate professionals be paying attention to AI today? AI is set to revolutionize real estate similarly to how it transformed financial services, automating intermediary processes and enhancing decision-making. Those who adapt early will gain significant advantages, while late adopters risk falling behind. How do you use AI daily? What tools and apps do you like to use? I use GPT Omni extensively for preparing weekly company presentations, reducing preparation time from 8-10 hours to 2-3 hours. I also use Claude for interactive idea discussions and refining presentation content . Can you think of an easy win that somebody could do immediately after listening today? An easy win is building asset models with AI. By inputting an assumptions table into a model, AI can populate the inputs and create sensitivity tables, reducing manual errors and saving significant time. ***** The only Podcast you need on real estate and AI.

An AI Game Changer for Real Estate Agents
My guest today is Zach Gorman who co-founded the RealReports platform, which consolidates dozens of data sources into one easy to use platform, provides an AI assistant to trawl through it, and that is giving agents who use it an unfair competitive advantage. This is a really cool tool. I tried it on a couple of properties that I own and, OMG, instead of having to go to a dozen different websites to grab the data I need, bingo! it's all there in one place with one click. Love it! RealReports has raised $2 million in seed funding, is aiming for profitability in the coming months, and is scaling fast. For sure, one of the biggest challenges anyone in the residential market faces is due diligence and the challenge of having to search around in the hopes nothing is missed. Here are some of the data points that RealReports consolidates (of dozens more) in their property reports: Permits Zoning Rental income projections (long and short term) Remodel prospects Utilities Climate risk Liens Tax history Zach explains how RealReports surpasses Zillow and Redfin (and other similar sites) in their analytics and talks about their AI-powered assistant, Aiden, (also, really cool – like having an assistant out on the road with you in real time, answering questions about every property you see). Aiden analyzes documents, photos, videos, and all the disparate information sources that RealReports consolidates and allows you to ‘chat’ with it by asking questions. Imagine driving around a neighborhood and wanting to know everything there was to know about a property… just ask Aiden – and then ask Aiden to give you the owner’s phone number so you can put in a call right then and there. From Zach: Why should real estate professionals pay attention to AI? Agents and brokers who use AI will replace those who do not – because AI enhances productivity, speeds up processes, and allows professionals to provide value faster, thus setting them apart from those who do not use AI. What AI tools do you use daily? Zack uses several AI tools, including ChatGPT, DALL-E, Bard, Leonardo, Copy AI, and Lex. These tools help him manage tasks like content creation, graphic design, and social media, significantly reducing the need for additional hires. What is an easy win with AI for listeners? Zack recommends using AI to incrementally learn about a complex topic. Start by asking AI to explain a concept as if to a preschooler, then progressively increase the difficulty level to a PhD level. This method makes understanding complex topics more manageable and less frustrating. ***** The only Podcast you need on real estate and AI.
