I subscribe to emails from Zillow for a couple of different areas. This morning I received a listing on a house with the usual picture, address, pricing, etc. The emails always include the first line or two of the agent's description.
Here's what it said: Quote: ChatGPT Absolutely, I can create an inspiring property description based on the details you've...
Zillow shoots those emails out immediately on posting, so the agent didn't realize it was sent out including the copied ChatGPT response header. (The online listing doesn't currently contain the wording). It did a nice job on writing a flowery description, or inspiring as ChatGPT put it.

Agent with zero IQ. BTW, have you ever seen an agent with positive IQ? Better to talk with AI directly.

Ummm, have to toss my oar in here. My daughter is a real-estate agent. You have no idea how many idiots, sorry customers, sorry, people who want to buy homes and are clueless. yes, there are dumb agents overwhelmed with 10x clients.
Now, if you want to go off and buy real-estate via AI, you go do you.

Charlie,
I agree. I've worked with agents both personally and from the IT side (over 25 years) and pretty much like any large group of people, I've encountered 'amazing' at both ends of the spectrum. I have more than a few funny stories from working on a brokerage site that was one of the first local Realtors to have an active internet presence.
An amusing side note, this property went pending in two days, almost unheard of in this market. Maybe the AI helped draw in some people, but a really good listing of a move-in ready house at $183/sqft probably had more to do with it.
While we may not get to buying a house via AI, I would envision services that will really narrow down searches using it.

Certainly know that the one I used was worth it.
At one point when showing me a house he dashed down the street to talk to three people that just left the house. He picked up, some how, that the three people were odd.
So he found out that one was a structural engineer, hired by the other people, who determined the house would require structural changes due to a hill behind the house. After that talk we still looked at the house but knew to look where one of the walls was leaning in.
That problem meant there was no way I could have gotten the type of loan that I was looking at.
So certainly saved me time and perhaps even money.

Wonder if AI can help you figure out how you can afford?
10,018 sq/ft lot (.23 acres), are they try to fool you with big numbers? That's a tiny lot!

In 94 I bought the house I raised my family in. I needed 2 bathrooms, 4 bedrooms and a "yard" large enough to let the munchkins play. 30 years later, I have my grandkids roaming the back of the yard which is only .5 acre. I'd love to have more land. Lottery has not paid out yet

This is a beautiful thing. Just have a hose to wash them off before they try to come back to the house. This spring, I am going to take my grandson down to the neighborhood creek and let him play. I get ads for 50 acres in Kentucky for 100k. I'm sitting on beaucoup equity and I can see a small cabin on that.

no sir. I'm 64, sitting on a pile of equity and for some odd reason I'm getting fb ads offering me land in Kentucky. I would not skip a heartbeat heading out there, but my wife might kill me.

I get so claustrophobic in a MRI machine that I need to take a nerve pill before I go in and then close my eyes and clench my fists.
I'm so claustrophobic that when I die I'm going to cremated.
So spending the night in the hotel mentioned would not work for me.

Yeah, but in Florida would you want a big lot to have to mow in the summer?

We live in a little town in N. FL..
Summers are brutal but we do the mowing early in the morning.

That would make for a huge house. But for a lot? That's 100x100, which is ridiculously small.
My neighbor had a nice log house built on 15 acres, and he mowed 4 of those - the rest was covered with trees. He and the wife each had riding mowers and mowing that was a full-day endeavor between the two of them.
He sold the whole thing to a housing developer, who then started by cutting down all trees, and will demolish the log house soon, which is a shame as the place looks looked amazing.

That's about 33 * 33 ~= 1,000 square meters, or 1 dunam. But Israeli standards, that is a large plot.
Most people in Israel live in apartment blocks. Unless one is in the top 0.1%, a 1,000 square meter plot is about all one is likely to be able to afford.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

I hadn't followed any link, so I didn't realize Israel was part of the discussion.
I live out in the country in Canada, on a (if I recall) 125'x325' lot. It's not exactly huge, especially compared to some of my neighbors. The lot used to be part of a larger farm land area (my grandfather's), which was measured in kilometers.
