In mortgages, the first to respond wins 78% of the time. Our AI voice receptionist answers every call instantly, qualifies borrowers on DTI and pre-approval status, and schedules loan consultations before your competitors even check voicemail.
Industry data shows why every second matters
Your rates are competitive - but borrowers can't wait for callbacks
When rates drop, borrowers contact 3-5 lenders within minutes. The first to respond and build rapport wins 78% of the time. Every minute you delay costs you loans.
When you're reviewing documents, on a consultation, or working with underwriting, calls go unanswered. That pre-approved buyer just called your competitor instead.
Borrowers research mortgages after work, often 6-10 PM. By morning, they've spoken with 3 other lenders and locked rates elsewhere.
From inquiry to pre-qualification appointment in one call
Refinance lead calls at 7:45 PM after seeing your rate ad online.
Captures loan purpose, property value, credit range, DTI indicators, and timeline.
Schedules pre-approval call with appropriate loan officer for next morning.
You receive qualified lead details via SMS and email - ready for follow-up.
"Thank you for calling Premier Mortgage Solutions! I'm the mortgage assistant. Are you calling about a new home purchase, refinancing, or an existing loan application?"
"Hi, I'm looking to refinance. My current rate is 7.2% and I heard rates are dropping."
"You've come to the right place! Rates have improved significantly. To get you a personalized quote, may I ask a few quick questions? What's the approximate value of your home and current loan balance? ... And what's your estimated credit score range? ... Perfect. Our loan officer Michael has availability tomorrow at 10 AM or 2 PM for a 15-minute rate review. Which works better?"
"10 AM works. My home is worth about $485,000, I owe $320,000, and my credit is around 740."
"Excellent! With a 740 credit score and over 30% equity, you're in a great position for competitive rates. I've booked you with Michael at 10 AM tomorrow. You'll receive a confirmation text shortly with his direct line. Is there anything else I can help with?"
