AI Receptionist for Real Estate Agents
You're at an open home when a buyer calls about another listing. Nexwin AI Receptionist can handle calls routed to it, offer suitable inspection times from your connected calendar and capture buyer details 24/7. Caller behaviour and lead outcomes vary; Nexwin does not guarantee a booking or commission.
Seven days and 100 call minutes included. Card required. No charge until the trial ends and your selected plan starts on day 8. Cancel anytime.
How It Works for Real Estate
Nexwin AI Receptionist provides automated 24/7 handling for calls routed to it, subject to plan limits and service availability. Configure and test it with your listings, availability, call rules and human fallback.
Property Enquiry Handling
When a potential buyer or tenant calls about a listing, Nexwin AI Receptionist provides key property details — bedrooms, bathrooms, land size, price guide — and captures the caller's information. You get a text with full lead details so you can follow up at the right time, not when you're mid-conversation with another client.
Inspection Booking
Nexwin AI Receptionist checks configured Google Calendar availability, offers suitable times and creates the booking. Review configuration and bookings because automated systems can make mistakes.
Lead Qualification
Not every call is a serious buyer. Nexwin AI Receptionist can ask qualifying questions — budget, timeframe, pre-approval status, property preferences — so you know which leads to prioritise. Spend your time on buyers who are ready to act, not tyre-kickers.
After-Hours & Weekend Calls
For evening and weekend enquiries, Nexwin AI Receptionist can capture configured details and attempt an inspection-booking workflow. Caller behaviour and completed-booking outcomes vary.
Why Real Estate Agents Need an AI Receptionist
Speed to Lead
Timely follow-up can matter in property enquiries. Nexwin AI Receptionist provides automated 24/7 call handling within plan and service limits; Nexwin does not claim a response-time advantage will win a client.
Capture Buyer Details While You Are Busy
When you cannot answer during open homes, meetings or travel, Nexwin AI Receptionist can handle calls routed to it, subject to concurrency and service availability.
Handle Campaign Launches
Nexwin AI Receptionist supports up to five simultaneous calls on Business and ten on Pro. Configure fallback for calls above the plan limit or affected by an outage.
Weekend & Evening Coverage
Buyers browse listings in the evening and on weekends. Nexwin AI Receptionist captures those leads when they're most motivated, not hours later when they've moved on.
Professional First Impression
Calls that reach Nexwin AI Receptionist use the greeting and intake questions you configure. Test the wording and human fallback before publishing.
More Time for Selling
Stop spending hours returning calls and managing phone tag. Let Nexwin AI Receptionist handle the admin calls so you can focus on what actually earns commission — face-to-face with buyers and vendors.
Why is the phone worse in property management than in sales?
Because sales calls arrive in bursts around a campaign, while property management generates a constant, unglamorous stream of calls that has to be answered every single day — and a tight rental market has made it heavier. The ABS reports that capital city rental inflation was around 5.5% in April 2025, with roughly 480,000 rental properties in the sample used to measure private rents. When stock is tight, each advertised property draws far more enquiries — and every one of them rings the agency.
A property manager with a rent roll of 150 is fielding maintenance reports, application questions, inspection times, arrears conversations and lease-renewal queries from tenants and owners at once. It's the reason PM staff turnover is the problem it is, and the phone is the single biggest contributor.
The calls that come in whether you answer or not
- "Is the property still available and when's the next inspection?" — asked dozens of times per listing, with the identical answer each time.
- After-hours maintenance. A burst flexi hose at 11pm is a genuine emergency with real liability if it's ignored until morning.
- Routine maintenance. A dripping tap is not urgent, but the tenant still needs an acknowledgement and a job number.
- Application status. Applicants may call to check where they stand; configure what the AI may say and when staff must respond.
- Buyer enquiries at 8pm Sunday — after the open home, when the agent has finished for the day and the buyer is scrolling listings.
Nexwin AI Receptionist can use reviewed inspection information, collect a structured maintenance report and apply configured escalation rules. It cannot assess hazards reliably or guarantee a transfer, so emergency instructions and direct human contact paths remain necessary.
What it won't do
Nexwin AI Receptionist does not give advice on tenancy law, negotiate rent, approve or decline an application, quote a commission, or make an appraisal. Real estate agency work in Australia is licensed state by state and residential tenancies are governed by state legislation and tribunals — NCAT in NSW, VCAT in Victoria, and their equivalents. Those calls need your licensed people. Nexwin AI Receptionist can capture configured details and notify the designated person, but failed calls, transcription mistakes and notification failures remain possible.
What It Costs
Nexwin AI Receptionist starts at $249/month +GST with no setup fee and no lock-in contract. Compare that with your actual call volume, observed lead-to-client rate and commission values; Nexwin does not guarantee leads, clients, commissions or savings.

Every plan includes a 7-day free trial with 100 minutes so you can see the results before you commit. Check the full pricing details.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an AI receptionist for a real estate agency?
An AI receptionist for a real estate agency is software that answers the agency's phone in a natural voice, gives buyers and tenants listing details and inspection times from a knowledge base the agency controls, books appraisals and inspections into an agent's calendar, takes structured maintenance reports from tenants, and escalates urgent matters such as an after-hours burst pipe to the on-call person. It does not give tenancy-law advice, negotiate, or approve applications.
Can it handle after-hours maintenance calls from tenants?
Nexwin AI Receptionist can collect the property address and issue description and apply a configured escalation rule. It cannot assess urgency reliably or guarantee a transfer, so provide emergency instructions and a direct human fallback for hazards such as gas smells or burst pipes.
How much does an AI receptionist cost for a real estate agency?
Nexwin AI Receptionist starts at $249/month +GST with 600 call minutes, up to 5 simultaneous calls and a free Nexwin AI Chatbot. The Pro plan is $499/month +GST with 1,200 minutes and 10 simultaneous calls, which suits agencies with a substantial rent roll or multiple active campaigns. Additional minutes are $0.49/min on Business and $0.39/min on Pro. There is a 7-day free trial, free setup and no lock-in contract.
Can Nexwin AI Receptionist handle enquiries for multiple listings?
Yes. Nexwin AI Receptionist is configured with details for all your current listings. When a buyer calls about a specific property, it provides the relevant information for that listing. You can update listings anytime through your dashboard.
Does it integrate with real estate CRMs?
Nexwin AI Receptionist currently integrates with Google Calendar for inspection bookings. Lead details are sent via text and email so you can add them to your CRM. Direct CRM integrations are on our development roadmap.
Can callers tell it's an AI?
Nexwin AI Receptionist uses an Australian voice and should be disclosed as an AI assistant. Voice quality is subjective, and Nexwin does not claim callers cannot identify AI. Hear the demo and test it with your agency's scenarios.
What if a vendor calls and needs to speak to me directly?
You can set up VIP forwarding rules. When a vendor or priority contact calls, Nexwin AI Receptionist can forward the call directly to your mobile. You control who gets put through immediately and who gets the standard AI experience.
