Meridian Real Estate: 43% More Closings With AI-Powered Lead Automation

Results at a glance

The Challenge

Meridian's 12-agent team was receiving 300+ inbound leads per month from 6 different sources. Average response time was 4.8 hours — in luxury real estate, a lead that doesn't hear back within 15 minutes typically moves on to a competitor. Only 22% of leads were being properly followed up beyond the first contact.

Our Solution

We built a complete lead automation system: instant enrichment on every new lead, AI-powered qualification scoring, automated personalized first-touch sequences, and a follow-up cadence that runs for 90 days without agent intervention — freeing agents to focus exclusively on warm conversations.
