Automating the boring parts

[Jimmy Le]

Over the past month, I’ve trained an AI/natural language processing model to “read” the latest court filings and generate a list of potentially motivated sellers in Houston.

It’s spun up some other ideas to shift boring work to computers:

1. Recognizing distressed properties from photos on the MLS/Zillow

2. Using drone/satellite footage to identify distressed properties

3. Listening to the police radio scanner. Recent crimes may prompt sellers.

What are some other boring but essential acquisitions tasks that could be automated?
