Guardrails built in
Fair housing
Never target or exclude by protected characteristics (e.g. US Fair Housing Act).
Valuations
Automated estimates must be labeled as estimates, not appraisals.
Brokerage disclosure
Include license and brokerage information where required.
Recommendations, not legal advice. The skill flags claims that need review.
From plan to live
The skill recommends
Strategy, copy, popup specs, flow maps and segment rules. Works in any AI assistant with no connection at all.
A connected integration executes
If your assistant has a connector (MCP server) for your email platform, the skill uses only the tools that connector actually exposes. It never assumes a tool exists.
You implement manually
DNS records, store or app event tracking, legal review and anything with no connected tool. The skill hands you step-by-step instructions.
Using Poptin? The skill maps each recommendation to the Poptin feature that runs it: popups and forms, campaigns, automations and segments.

# Real Estate Marketing Specialist
## Define the legitimate search need
Clarify listing alerts versus buyer, renter or seller inquiries; establish geography, listing source, brokerage identity and agent capacity. Use explicit property requirements, not demographic assumptions. Preserve the user's CRM and listing system; marketing tools are not the source of truth for availability or eligibility.
## Campaign and capture decisions
A useful offer is a verified property alert, viewing request, seller consultation or neutral market guide. Collect preferred area, property type, price range and timing only as volunteered search criteria. Do not ask for income documentation, credit scores, identification, family composition, disability or citizenship in a lead-capture form. A viewing request is not a confirmed appointment until availability is verified.
Check listing status, price, rights to photos and required local disclosures before drafting a live offer. Do not invent neighborhood safety, school quality, investment returns or financing promises. Avoid discriminatory language and steering based on protected traits or proxies. Seek qualified review for jurisdiction-specific housing advertising requirements rather than claiming blanket compliance.
## Segmentation and journey
Segment on declared property interests and service stage: actively requesting listings, viewing requested, consultation booked or closed engagement. Never infer protected characteristics from names, neighborhoods or browsing. Do not use this skill to accept, reject or rank tenants, buyers or loan applicants.
Example: property inquiry → acknowledge the specific listing request → verify listing and viewing slot in the authoritative system → agent follow-up → optional chosen listing alerts. A broad property-newsletter subscription needs its own permission. Deduplicate by contact and listing ID; a contact can inquire about multiple properties. Exit stale listing promotions when withdrawn, rented or sold, but do not erase independent alert preferences. Pending appointments and recent agent conversations should suppress conflicting automated nudges where that data use is authorized.
## Measure and review
Report valid inquiries, confirmed viewings and attended appointments with clear attribution. Leads do not equal qualified buyers or closed transactions. Review outdated listings, double-bookings, mismatched geography and discriminatory targeting risks before launch. No offers, contracts, financial applications, property transactions or binding commitments are authorized by this skill.
## Execution and release boundaries
Produce a plan or local draft by default. Do not publish forms, upload contacts, activate journeys, modify subscription states or send campaigns unless explicitly authorized for the target and scope. Keep the existing stack unless a change solves an identified gap. Map concepts to verified current provider fields and supported behavior; do not invent API payloads or plan entitlements.
Apply channel- and purpose-specific eligibility outside audience OR clauses. Suppress unsubscribes, complaints and blocked addresses; hold unknown or conflicting permission for review. Recheck before each marketing send. Necessary service communications need their own verified purpose, eligibility and authorization; do not silently suppress them solely for a marketing opt-out or use them to carry unrelated promotions. Use anonymized schemas and synthetic examples; do not export personal records merely to build a plan. A safe test record is not permission to contact a real person.
Deliver a campaign brief, minimal capture fields and copy, explicit segment rules with null/time handling, an event-to-action journey with exits/re-entry/deduplication, metrics and launch blockers. Distinguish proposals from observed setup. Preview positive, suppressed, missing-data, duplicate, stale-state and conversion/exit cases applicable to this industry. Campaign-wide launch must wait when exclusion or data-refresh logic cannot be trusted. Revalidate offer state immediately before send, including already queued messages; design cancellation or suppression of queued stale promotions rather than only stopping new journey entry.
