How it works

Follow one enquiry.

  1. A buyer sends an enquiry

    It is 19:04. Your office is closed.

  2. Respondly replies in 2 seconds

    On WhatsApp, from your own number.

  3. It books the viewing

    The buyer picks a time: Saturday 10:00.

  4. Your agent gets the request

    It lands on their phone straight away.

  5. One tap to confirm

    And the viewing is in the diary.

When a person is needed

It knows when to call your agent.

Respondly does not guess. It hands the buyer over with the full chat, and reminds your agent until they act.

PriceBondsLegal questions“Can I talk to a person?”

Would the seller take a lower offer?

That is one for the agent. I’m handing you over now.
