Realtor.com® Launches RealAssist™ AI: A Completely Reimagined Way to Find A Home
Built with Google's Gemini and grounded in 30 years of Realtor.com buyer intelligence, RealAssist™ AI guides home shoppers from their very first question to closing
Today, RealAssist™ AI is available to a select group of logged in users in beta across desktop, the Realtor.com® app, and mobile web, with full availability rolling out shortly.
"Realtor.com® is positioned to lead the AI era in real estate — and the data already points that way," said
"Buying a home is one of the biggest financial decisions most people will ever make, and most buyers start the process feeling overwhelmed and underprepared," said
RealAssist™ AI Sets a New Bar for Home Search
A traditional search gives buyers a box and a set of filters. RealAssist™ AI turns that into a two-way conversation. Tell it your commute, your must-haves, your budget, and it surfaces homes to fit your life, not just your criteria. The more you share, the smarter it gets.

More Than Search: From First Question to Closing
Most buyers spend weeks in pre-search weighing affordability, timing, and tradeoffs, before they ever browse a listing. And the hard decisions don't stop when they find a few homes they love. RealAssist™ AI is there for all of it, from early affordability questions to understanding a specific property, scheduling a tour, navigating an offer, and preparing for closing. And at every step, RealAssist™ AI makes it easy to connect with a local agent.

Map Technology That Helps Buyers Picture Their Future Life
Real estate is location, location, location, and RealAssist™ AI brings that to life in ways no other search experience has before. Built with Google's Gemini, RealAssist™ AI surfaces commute times and helps buyers explore neighborhoods by highlighting local parks and businesses. Buyers can map out a full daily routine from school drop-off to the office, for any neighborhood they're considering or any home they're already interested in. This helps them know whether a home could actually work for their life before they ever schedule a tour.
RealAssist™ AI offers unique visual technology. Consumers can see what a street looks like after dark or how a home changes with the seasons. They can even visualize what a home would look like with a new exterior finish.

Conversations That Pick Up Where They Left Off
RealAssist™ AI does not reset when a tab closes. It remembers a buyer's budget and priorities, across sessions and picks up mid-thought after a day or two so there's no starting over when priorities shift. The conversation simply moves forward when a user changes a budget or adds a must-have.
