Lately, a lot of things online sound the same.
Perfectly structured. Slightly dramatic. Full of catchy phrases that feel smart but don’t really say much.
A surprisingly easy way to spot when someone is leaning too hard on AI is the language. You’ll see a lot of overly polished, “headline-style” sentences and neat little contrasts packaged as wisdom. Phrases built like: “It’s not X, it’s Y.” They sound clever. They’re also one of the most common templates generated by machines.
Real people usually don’t talk like that.
*** What you just read was AI assisted writing. It’s always fun to poke at the system, tell it that comparison language is an easy way to spot AI, and it still gives high praise back (AI seems to think we can do no wrong). AI, or some sort of decision matrix, has always been in the real estate system though. HUD houses used a decision matrix, banks did during short sales, the short-lived “industry disrupters”, and real live human Sellers and Buyers… they all operate under a decision matrix for negotiation. My job is to decode it so I win negotiations for my clients. I can always tell when the burden of a corporate matrix or a code is controlling the negotiation on the other side. It is no different when using AI. In real estate, do we use it to generate the same cliche reels or do we tap into it’s actual time saving capabilities. Right now, AI is still all about asking the right questions, otherwise you get ***
polished, inspiring, future-forward content that checks every box, uses all the right words, and somehow still manages to avoid saying anything real at all. beep beep boop
ChatGPT Prompts That Actually Improve Your Life
Speaking of AI, here are a couple of prompts that I have polished to try out for yourself. Log into the AI and start a chat with the prompts below. Make sure to input your information clearly and as descriptive as possible where needed to get the best results. Remember, AI doesn’t really know anything so you have to program the information wisely to get a great response.
Create a Weekly Routine Template for me that matches my energy, schedule, and priorities. Keep it simple and realistic. Here are my details: My busiest days: When I have the most energy: Weekly non-negotiables: What I want LESS of each week: What I want MORE of each week: Household size + general rhythms: Use these to build a flexible weekly routine I can follow without feeling overwhelmed.
Create a personalized Home Reset Checklist for me. Use systems-based steps (not basic cleaning). Tailor it to my home and lifestyle using the details below:
Number of people in my home: Type of home: Where clutter builds up most: How often I prefer to wash towels, sheets, pillowcases: Any services/devices I use (Walmart+, Amazon, Alexa, etc.): One thing that would make my home feel calmer each week:
Use these details to build a simple, realistic weekly home reset.
I would love to know how these work for you, or if you have found a great prompt to help your daily life as well.
On a Personal (Work) Note…
I’ve been working on my website for a few months now. I started by asking myself why someone would even want to go there in the first place, and that ended up turning into a full rebuild. I’m not putting market updates in my blog or emails anymore, those now live on a dedicated page that I keep up to date. Same with events, which now have their own page, along with a simple hub for investors, sellers, and buyers with guides and links to Google Sheets. I’m also working on finishing up city guides for both the bigger and smaller cities around the Valley.
It’s been a lot of behind-the-scenes work, but I’m really proud of what it’s turning into. If there’s anything you ever wish it had, just tell me!
If you’d ever like to be on the list for homes that are shared quietly and legally before they’re widely advertised, just Contact here. And as always, if you have questions about anything, AI, the market, or a move you’re thinking about, I’m easy to reach. I hope your year is off to a great start so far!
