The Problem

Estate agents are losing revenue to slow responses and repetitive admin.

A 5-minute reply delay can cut your lead conversion by more than half. Multiply that across portal leads, valuation requests and WhatsApp messages — and you can see exactly where instructions are disappearing.

Missed valuation leads

Hot Rightmove and Zoopla enquiries go cold while your team is on viewings.

Slow out-of-hours response

Evening and weekend leads sit overnight. Whoever replies first wins the instruction.

Manual CRM updates

Negotiators retype enquiries into Reapit, Alto or Jupix instead of selling.

Chasing vendors and buyers

Endless follow-up calls for feedback, documents and offer responses.

Appointment scheduling

Back-and-forth to book a valuation. No-shows nobody chased.

Repetitive paperwork

Terms of business, AML checks, vendor packs — all done by hand, every time.

Teams overwhelmed

Admin grows faster than headcount. Negotiators do paperwork instead of pitching.

Lead leakage

Portal leads, web enquiries and WhatsApp messages slip between systems.

Why Houghton Automations Exists

Practical AI for estate agents — built by an operator who actually writes the code.

I started coding at twelve and have spent years building software systems for service businesses. Most "AI for estate agents" pitches are slide decks. We ship working systems instead — built around Reapit, Alto, Jupix, WhatsApp, Rightmove leads and the tools your team already lives in.

No account managers. No 6-month consulting engagements. Direct founder access, fast implementation and one focus: more booked valuations and less admin for your team.

Direct founder access on every project
Builder mindset — code, not slide decks
Practical AI, not hype or experiments
UK-based, estate-agent focused
