Why real estate agents use an auto responder
The first agent to reply usually gets the showing.
Renters contact several similar listings in the same few minutes. If you're mid-showing, driving or off for the night, a slower agent's reply becomes their first impression instead of yours. An auto responder closes that gap without handing your leads to a chatbot.
Your words, not AI
Replies use your own templates with the renter's first name and the listing address filled in. Nothing is AI-written, so every lead hears your real voice.
Email and text together
A personal email goes out from your Gmail, and with a texting app connected, a matching text follows whenever the lead left a phone number.
Follow-ups that stop on their own
Leads who go quiet get automatic email and text follow-ups on your schedule, and they stop the moment the renter writes back.

Questions agents ask
Real estate auto responder FAQ
What is an auto responder for real estate agents?
An auto responder for real estate agents is software that answers new leads for you, the moment they inquire, so a renter or buyer hears back in minutes instead of hours. AgentResponder is an auto responder built specifically for rental inquiries from Zillow and StreetEasy: it sends each lead a personal email (and, optionally, a text) in the agent's own words, from the agent's own Gmail, within about 5 minutes, 24/7.
Why do real estate agents need an auto responder?
Speed wins rental leads. A renter usually contacts several similar listings within a few minutes, and the agent who replies first tends to book the showing. Agents can't reply instantly while they're at showings, driving, or asleep — an auto responder makes sure every lead still gets a fast, personal reply.
Does AgentResponder use AI to write replies?
No. Every reply uses the agent's own templates, filled in with the renter's first name and the listing address. Nothing is AI-written, so leads always hear the agent's real voice.
Which lead sources does it work with?
AgentResponder reads and replies to rental inquiry emails from Zillow (Zillow Group Rentals contacts) and StreetEasy that arrive in your Gmail or Google Workspace inbox.
Can it send text messages too?
Yes. Connect a texting app — Quo (OpenPhone), Twilio, Telnyx, JustCall, Podium, Salesmsg, Textmagic or Vonage — and every inquiry that includes a phone number also gets a text. Some apps also save the renter as a contact automatically.
Does it follow up with leads who don't answer?
Yes. Follow-Up sends automatic email and text follow-ups to leads who go quiet (by default after 3 hours, then 24 hours) and stops the moment they reply. Steps and timing are fully customizable, and it is included on every plan.
How much does it cost?
Every account starts with a 30-day free trial with no credit card. After that, plans start at $9.95 per listing per month, with bundles of 5 listings ($39.95/mo), 10 listings ($79.95/mo) and unlimited listings ($124.95/mo).
Is AgentResponder only for New York City agents?
AgentResponder was built by and for New York City rental agents, and today new accounts are verified against a New York real estate license. Agents licensed in other states who want access can email office@agent-responder.com.
