ChatGPT for Realtors: Build Your Own Marketing Assistant (2025)

How To Use ChatGPT to Automate Your Real Estate Marketing

Did you know that nearly 9 in 10 brokerage leaders say their agents are already using artificial intelligence? According to a 2025 survey reported by RealEstateNews.com, AI has become essential in daily real estate operations, not just a passing trend.

That’s exactly what Nick Krem, co-founder of the Krem Institute of Artificial Intelligence, revealed in this Live AI Workshop.

The secret? A little-known ChatGPT feature called Projects.

Instead of spending thousands on a marketing strategist who doesn’t understand your niche, you can use Projects to create an AI-powered assistant that works 24/7, tailored to you.

So let’s keep this simple and dive in.

What Is the "Projects" Feature in ChatGPT?

Projects are like a home base inside ChatGPT. They let you:

  • Upload files like documents, transcripts, PDFs, and videos
  • Train  ChatGPT with personalized data about your brand and audience
  • Save instructions so your assistant always remembers your style and goals

Unlike a Custom GPT, Projects don’t require coding and are easier to update. Once you set it up, your Project becomes a personal AI assistant that never forgets.

Think of it like onboarding a team member once and then having them remember everything forever.

Ready to set yours up? Here’s how.

Step 1: Feed It Expert-Level Research

The foundation of your AI assistant is what you feed it. One of the most powerful ways to train ChatGPT is by using deep research prompts that instruct it to gather and synthesize expert-level information from across the internet.

Tool: Deep Research Mode (available with ChatGPT Pro)

Try this prompt:

"Run deep research on Alex Hormozi’s book '$100M Leads' and show how to apply the most effective strategies to real estate content marketing."

ChatGPT will:

  • Scan over 20+ sources in 7 to 15 minutes
  • Summarize top lead generation strategies
  • Break down hook and content frameworks
  • Deliver actionable tips for digital marketing

Once complete, download the research results as a document. Upload that file into your ChatGPT Project to make it part of your assistant’s knowledge base.

That sets the stage. Now let’s take it a step further.

Step 2: Add YouTube Transcripts & Real Estate Training

Agents often ask:

"What content should I create each week?"

Here’s how to solve that.

Nick grabbed a YouTube video titled "2025’s Best Social Media Strategy for Real Estate Agents" (Tom Ferry) and transcribed it using:

Tool: Merlin
  • Go to YouTube
  • Find a video that aligns with your strategy
  • Use Merlin to transcribe the video with one click

Then:

  • Paste the full transcript into a Google Doc
  • Download the doc as a PDF
  • Upload it into your ChatGPT Project

Now your AI assistant knows:

  • What’s trending in real estate marketing
  • Real-world tactics agents are using now
  • What to recommend for content plans

That’s when you move to the next level: teaching it who you are.

Step 3: Upload Your Brand & Buyer Persona

You can’t build an assistant that markets like you if it doesn’t understand your brand and audience.

To make this happen, upload two core pieces:

  • A branding doc (mission, tone, offers, voice)
  • An Ideal Client Profile (ICP) for your niche

How to Build Your ICP?

Use the guide ChatGPT Chain Prompts for Creating Your ICP to create your Ideal Client Profile step by step. This resource walks you through the key questions that uncover your audience’s fears, goals, motivations, and objections.

With that in place, it’s time to put your assistant to work.

Step 4: Give Instructions Like a Boss

Now that your AI is trained on:

  • Marketing strategy (Deep Research)
  • What’s working now (YouTube Transcript)
  • Your brand (Positioning doc)
  • Your buyer (ICP)

You need to tell it what role to play and what outcome you want.

Use this simple prompt:

"Act as an expert social media strategist who has helped over 1,000 real estate agents attract leads online. My goal is to build a content and lead strategy for millennial buyers in Cleveland."

ChatGPT will start delivering:

  • Content calendars (Monday to Friday post plans)
  • DM scripts for Facebook and Instagram
  • Lead magnet outlines (PDF guides, checklists)
  • Caption and hook ideas (from real buyer psychology)

You now have a trained assistant that knows your strategy, your brand, and your buyers. In other words, you’ve just built a marketing partner who doesn’t sleep.

Here’s where it gets exciting, you can now ask it to create full assets and automations.

Step 5: Ask for Assets and Automation

Want it to go further? Here’s what else Nick built inside using ChatGPT Projects:

  • Meta Ad Form Templates
  • Canva Mockups
  • Trello Boards for content planning
  • Notion layouts for weekly tracking
  • Facebook Lead Forms

Run this prompt:

"Turn this millennial homebuyer guide into a Facebook lead ad. Include headline, description, call-to-action, and form structure."

ChatGPT returned:

  • Primary text: "Still renting and tired of throwing away money? Here's how to buy your first home in Cleveland without feeling overwhelmed."
  • CTA: Download Guide
  • Form: Name, Email, Timeline to Buy

That’s how you go from ideas to real marketing systems in minutes.
