I'll go into the details of why this is, but also offer this self-coined truism as a consolation prize: "You'll never sell your real estate business, so you might as well automate it."

When you have a 5,000 pc mailer and 100-150 ppl are calling at the same time, the more automation the better for me.These are all worded differently in my script, but these are the basic questions we ask.Name?

Rent is automated as I don't chase it.

You can also do bulk emails and automations.

If it's more about where/how-to type stuff then you need to do a better job having those responses either automated or in your case with a "hotel" maybe look into getting a VA. 

If you do them all be prepared and have an upfront screening mechanism like an automated e-mail that says "please fill out the attached application and send us a copy of a free credit report, once we received that we will reachout to you to schedule a showing" otherwise they'll run you ragged. 

I have bought and sold 4000 apartment units and use Infusionsoft (Keap) to grow and automate my real estate business.Keap is probably the most complicated and expensive compared to Aweber, MailChimp, Constant Contact. 

Many property managers are partnering with a filter-delivery service to automate delivery.

I've tried calling countrywide and all they gave me is a automated phone number to the REO Department that then asks for a social sec. number and loan number (i have the loan number from the trustee sale sheet but no s.s.n.).

Not a deal for me at all, but kept coming on the multi-unit search automated emails that we get from agents.
