Buying a new home is an exciting process, but it can also be intimidating. If there’s even one step that makes it a little easier, then you can count me in. And that’s where a new AI home search engine comes in. I mean, artificial intelligence is everywhere, so why not use it to make the home buying process easier in Seattle?
Chris Lowe is one of the founders of Tomo. No, not the fantastic Tomo restaurant in White Center. This Tomo is a real estate portal that puts homebuyers first. And the best part is that it’s free and launched locally in Seattle. The following is a sponsored post by Lowe and the team at Tomo.
Tomo’s Cutting Edge AI Home Search Engine
It’s not easy to buy a home in Seattle. So Tomo wants to help by offering a more innovative way to search with an AI home search engine.
Let’s start with the most complicated part: fully understanding everything you want in a house. Then, you need to prioritize the home features that matter most to you and determine whether you can check all the boxes within your budget. On top of that, you have to find a real estate broker and prepare an offer you feel confident about. It’s exhausting just to write it all out.
With all the information to sort through, on top of the complexity of the home-buying process, it’s no wonder three out of four home buyers second guess their purchase. They feel like they spent too much or acted too quickly, and the reality is that many people don’t buy the right place for them.
Enter local real estate startup Tomo (with an office on Capitol Hill). Tomo was co-founded by two former Zillow executives in 2021 (Zillow is in downtown Seattle). Tomo started by offering faster, more convenient mortgages. But they recently set their sights on building a breakthrough AI home search engine.
“We focused 100% on what a new home buyer might need, from finding a place to making an offer,” says Tomo CEO Greg Schwartz.
Tomo’s new AI home search engine leverages OpenAI’s ChatGPT to allow you to search for a home like you might text a friend. From that, it curates listings that match your parameters.
For example, you can highlight things that really matter to you, like a condo under $800k with a high-end kitchen or views of the water in Belltown. You can even drop a little emoji if you’re really hoping for something—like a saltwater pool in Bellevue or a rooftop deck in Queen Anne.
So, if you’re in the market for a new home or want to peek at some of the exceptional new places hitting the market this summer in Seattle, you might want to check out Tomo and its AI home search engine.
Harness the Power of AI
For some, the idea of AI is thrilling. But for others, AI is just as intimidating as the home-buying process. But AI is truly a helpful tool that makes everyday tasks easier, including searching for your next house in Seattle or beyond. Seriously, just try it.
A helpful tip: practice “prompting” AI. A prompt is what you enter into ChatGPT (or any other AI tool) to make it generate what you need. The same goes for an AI home search engine. The more detail you provide, the better the results will be.
So, confidently go forth and find your next home with the help of Tomo’s AI home search engine.
