Salesforce for real estate is Salesforce configured for brokerages, developers and property managers on Sales Cloud, Service Cloud and Experience Cloud: lead capture from portals, websites and open houses, routing to the right agent, a property and listing data model, sales and leasing pipelines, tenant and maintenance cases with contractor work orders, portals for buyers, tenants, owners and brokers, consent tracking and Agentforce agents. SynconAI designs and builds it for real estate firms in the United States, Australia and worldwide. - Salesforce has no separate real estate cloud. Real estate firms build on Sales Cloud, Service Cloud and Experience Cloud. - Sales Cloud runs leads, listings and deals. Service Cloud runs tenant requests and maintenance. Experience Cloud gives buyers, tenants, owners and brokers their own portals. - Agentforce agents can qualify inquiries, book inspections and log maintenance requests at any hour. ## Salesforce for real estate services - Lead capture and routing: Every inquiry captured with its source and sent to the right agent. - Listings and property records: One record per property, linked to viewings, offers and cases. - Sales and leasing pipeline: Appraisal to closing, or application to signed lease, tracked by stage. - Tenant and maintenance cases: Requests triaged, assigned to contractors and tracked to completion. - Portals: Buyer, tenant, owner and broker portals on Experience Cloud. - Marketing journeys: New listing alerts, nurture emails and texts, sent only with consent. - Integrations: Listing systems, property portals and property management software connected. - AI agents for real estate: Agentforce agents that qualify leads, book inspections and log repairs. ## Which real estate business is Salesforce being set up for? Question: What kind of real estate business are you? - A brokerage or agency: Brokerages and agencies. Agents work leads from portals, signs, referrals and open houses. - Lead capture from every source - Routing by listing, area or team - Pipeline from appraisal to closing - A developer: Developers. You sell or lease a project before or during construction, with a sales team and channel partners. - Project and unit inventory - Reservations and contracts tracked - Portal for brokers and channel partners - A property manager: Property managers. You look after tenants, owners and contractors across a portfolio. - Tenant and maintenance cases - Contractor work orders - Owner and tenant portals Outcome: One Salesforce setup on Sales Cloud, Service Cloud and Experience Cloud, shaped to how you work ## What can Salesforce do for a real estate business? Three areas of work. Most firms start with sales or property management and add the rest. - Sales and leasing - Lead capture and routing: Every inquiry captured with its source and routed. - Listings and properties: One record per property, with its full history. - Pipeline and offers: Appraisal to closing, or application to lease. - Property management - Maintenance cases: Tenant requests triaged and tracked. - Contractor work orders: Jobs sent, quoted, approved and closed. - Lease renewals: Reminders and offers before leases end. - Portals, data and AI - Portals: Buyer, tenant, owner and broker portals. - Marketing journeys: Listing alerts and nurture, with consent. - AI agents: Lead qualifying, inspection booking and repairs. ## How does Salesforce route real estate leads? Every inquiry follows the same route, so none waits in an inbox and every lead keeps its source. 1. Captured: Every source lands in one queue. - Property portal inquiries - Website forms - Open house sign-ins - Calls and texts 2. Qualified: Needs checked first. - Buyer, seller, tenant or investor - Price range and area - Finance status 3. Routed: Sent to the right person. - By listing, area or team - Round robin within a team - Reassigned if not contacted in the time you set 4. Booked: A visit in the calendar. - Inspection or showing booked - Confirmation by SMS - Reminder before the visit 5. Converted: The outcome recorded. - Offer or application - Listing agreement - Source credited ## How do listings and inquiries fit together in Salesforce? Each source maps to one kind of Salesforce record, and everything links back to the property. Where it comes from to Salesforce record: - Property portal inquiry to Lead - Website form to Lead - Open house sign-in to Contact - Listing feed to Property - Offer or lease application to Opportunity - Tenant repair request to Case - One property record: Listings, viewings, offers and cases all link to the same property, a custom object we design with you. - Source kept: Every lead keeps its source, so you can see which portal or campaign brought it. - Matched to existing contacts: Returning buyers and tenants match their existing contact instead of creating a new one. ## How are tenant maintenance requests handled in Salesforce? Four steps and one decision. Tenants and owners see progress in their portal instead of calling for updates. 1. Tenant reports: Through the portal, email, phone or an AI agent. 2. Triage: Category and urgency set, photos attached. 3. Work order: Created and sent to the right contractor. 4. Updates: Tenant and owner see the status in the portal. Decision: How urgent is it? - Emergency: Contractor dispatched and the property manager alerted straight away. - Routine: Booked with the tenant at a time that suits. - Owner approval: Quote sent to the owner before work starts. ## How do you handle consent, fair housing and privacy in Salesforce? We configure Salesforce to support the rules you work under. Your own advisers confirm what applies to you. - Consent and contact rules - Consent recorded per contact and channel - TCPA and the National Do Not Call Registry in the United States - Spam Act 2003 and the Do Not Call Register in Australia - Unsubscribes honored on every channel - Fair and consistent treatment - Fair housing rules kept in mind for listings and ads in the United States - Routing based on listing, area and workload - Tenant and applicant decisions recorded with reasons - Privacy and records - Australian Privacy Act 1988 where it applies to you - Tenant and applicant documents with restricted access - Trust accounting kept in your trust accounting software - Retention rules for old inquiries ## How does a Salesforce rollout run for a real estate firm? Six steps from first workshop to go-live. The written proposal states the milestones and dates. - Discover: Lead sources and systems listed; Workflows mapped with agents and managers - Design: Property data model; Routing rules agreed - Build: Sales Cloud and Service Cloud configured; Portals on Experience Cloud - Migrate: Contacts and listings cleaned and loaded; Portal feeds connected - Train: Agents and property managers trained; Salesforce mobile app set up - Go live: Cutover from the old system; Support through the first weeks ## Cost and timing The first step is a free 60-minute architecture review of your real estate Salesforce setup, with a written plan you keep.
