Tenant Intake That Never Sleeps, So Your Listings Never Sit
Rental listings move fast — and so do renters. When a prospect calls about a unit after hours or messages your site while your agent is at a showing, they won't wait. They'll move to the next listing. Every unanswered inquiry is a unit that sits vacant another week.
Do It 2 Win by Shepard Solutions, a custom AI and cloud services firm based in Long Beach, CA, builds AI tenant intake for real estate professionals. It's an automated system that answers rental inquiries, qualifies prospects, and books showings — so every lead gets a fast response, even when you're in the field.
What the Service Does
Our tenant intake system handles the front end of your leasing pipeline:
- Responds to inquiries instantly, 24/7 — phone calls, website messages, and rental listings inquiries get answered the moment they come in.
- Qualifies prospects with the questions you ask anyway: move-in timeline, budget range, pets, number of occupants, employment status.
- Books showings based on your availability, so qualified prospects land on your calendar without the back-and-forth.
- Routes serious applicants into your process with complete information, so you're following up on real prospects — not tire-kickers.
You stay in control of who you approve and who you lease to. The system does the intake and the scheduling; the decisions stay yours.
How It Works
Step 1 — Discovery call. We learn how you handle inquiries today: what you ask prospects, how you schedule showings, and where leads are slipping through.
Step 2 — Design. We map your qualification questions and showing logic into an intake flow built around your portfolio and your process.
Step 3 — Build and test. We build the system, run it through realistic prospect scenarios, and tune it until the conversations sound like your team.
Step 4 — Launch and support. We connect it to your listings, phone, or website, monitor the early weeks, and keep refining based on real prospect interactions.
Who It's For
This service is built for independent agents, property managers, and small brokerages that handle rental listings: apartment communities, single-family rentals, and mixed portfolios. If you're losing prospects to slow response times or spending your evenings answering the same five questions, AI tenant intake takes that weight off your day.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will prospects know they're talking to an AI?
We can design the system to be transparent about being automated — most prospects care about getting a fast, accurate answer, and the system identifies itself clearly when asked.
Can it handle multiple properties?
Yes. We build the intake around your full portfolio, so prospects can ask about specific units, compare options, and get accurate availability for each property.
Does it replace my leasing staff?
No. It handles inquiry response and qualification — the repetitive first steps. Your team still runs showings, makes leasing decisions, and closes deals.
What happens with unqualified prospects?
The system applies your criteria and flags prospects that don't meet them, so you see who was screened out and why — nothing disappears silently.
How long does setup take?
It depends on your portfolio size and how complex your qualification process is. We'll give you a realistic timeline on the discovery call.
How much does it cost?
We quote after the discovery call, based on what your intake actually needs. The call is free and there's no obligation.
