How does Call Answering for Estate Agents Work?
Our estate agent call answering service in Birmingham works alongside your existing telephone setup. Calls can be diverted to our team when required or when your own staff are unable to answer.
When a call reaches us, we answer using your chosen agency name and greeting. We then follow your instructions to establish why the person is calling and collect the information you require.
Depending on the enquiry, we can take a message, collect property details, record a viewing or valuation request, transfer the call or pass the information to the appropriate agent.
This gives your team the information they need to follow up while allowing agents to concentrate on viewings, valuations and existing clients.
