What is an AI leasing agent?

An AI leasing agent is a software assistant that helps people find apartments or rental homes. It lives on a website and answers questions at any time of day, telling visitors which units are open, how much they cost, and what features they include. It can also help schedule property tours and collect contact information.

AI leasing agents do not replace human staff; they cover the repetitive front-end work so your team can focus on people who are ready to sign. The term is often used interchangeably with AI leasing chatbot, though some tools offer broader features like email follow-up and automatic CRM updates.
