Workshop: AI Tools for Real Estate Investors — What Actually Works

There are now hundreds of AI tools marketed to real estate investors and operators. Most of them are wrappers around the same foundation models, won't integrate with your existing software, and will be out of business in 18 months. A small number of them are genuinely transformative. Knowing the difference is worth real money.

Tyler Brooks is Co-Founder and CTO of LeaseLens — AI-powered lease abstraction used by over 300 commercial real estate firms, processing more than 50,000 leases annually. He built the product, he knows where AI in real estate works and where it breaks, and he's willing to tell you which tools aren't worth your time.

In this demo-heavy session, Tyler covers the AI categories delivering actual ROI in 2026: lease abstraction and document review (where AI has reached human-level accuracy on standard commercial leases); rent optimization engines using demand forecasting, competitor pricing, and local event data to outperform static pricing models by 8–15% annually; market analysis tools that surface off-market opportunity; AI-generated property listings that lift conversion; predictive maintenance reducing emergency repair costs by 30–40% in large portfolios; and tenant screening automation — where AI helps and where it creates fair housing risk.

Tyler also covers the tools that overpromised: AI "deal finders" surfacing stale data, valuation tools with confidence intervals too wide to be useful, and chatbot-forward platforms that are one fine-tuned competitor away from being irrelevant. Live demos throughout. Attendees receive Tyler's AI Tool Scorecard — evaluation framework and current tool ratings by category. 1.25 CE credits.
