The problem

30–50 tasks per deal. Multiply by your active pipeline.

Every real estate transaction has 30–50 tasks between contract and close. Inspection. Appraisal. Lender updates. Title searches. Repair negotiations. Final walkthrough. Closing disclosure. Each one has deadlines. Each one involves 3–5 parties.

Agents and transaction coordinators keep it together through heroic effort, spreadsheets, and a lot of reminder texts. The cost: 10–15 hours per deal in coordination, plus the ever-present risk that one missed deadline kills the transaction.

An AI transaction coordinator tracks every deadline, pings every party automatically, and escalates only when something actually goes wrong. Your TC focuses on judgment calls and client reassurance, not spreadsheet-wrangling.

The playbook

The five-step transaction management workflow, step by step.

Each step shows what the agent does autonomously and what your team sees on their end. Human approval gates are marked.

01

Agent generates the full task list

Under contract
Agent does

Based on contract terms, loan type, property type, and state, agent creates the complete deadline-mapped task schedule.

Your team sees

TC sees the whole roadmap with every deadline pre-populated. No manual checklist setup.

02

Agent monitors and nudges

Ongoing
Agent does

Watches every deadline. Sends reminders to parties at smart intervals. Escalates to TC only when something's late or unclear.

Your team sees

TC dashboard shows what's on-track and what needs attention. No task slips quietly.

03

Agent coordinates multi-party logistics

Approval gate Inspection period
Agent does

Books inspector, notifies listing agent, confirms access, sends results to buyer — autonomously.

Your team sees

Buyer's agent sees progress in real time. Steps in only for judgment calls.

04

Agent runs final checklist

Approval gate Pre-closing
Agent does

Verifies every document, every signature, every required deadline has been met. Flags anything outstanding.

Your team sees

TC walks into close confident everything's ready — or knows exactly what to fix.

05

Agent handles the follow-ups

Closing + post-close
Agent does

Delivers closing docs, requests reviews, schedules 30-day check-ins, drops client into a retention nurture.

Your team sees

Client feels cared-for long after the deal closes. Agents get referrals instead of forgotten by month three.
