Five-Test Real Estate Lead Workflow Pilot Checklist

Use fictional records in a limited pilot before applying the workflow to live enquiries. Record each result in a shared test log, with human approval retained for privacy, compliance and other controlled decisions.

  1. Duplicate matching: Submit fictional enquiries for “Naledi Mokoena” using the same email but different phone formats and property references. Accept when reviewers see one linked history or a clearly flagged possible duplicate, without either submission disappearing; retain timestamps and screenshots as evidence.
  2. Absent-agent fallback: Assign a fictional enquiry to “Agent Thabo,” mark that agent unavailable, and let the agreed response window expire. Accept when the designated backup receives the item, its original owner remains visible, and the test log shows the fallback time and resulting status.
  3. Ownership: Move fictional buyer “Ayesha Khan” from initial qualification to a viewing handoff. Accept when exactly one accountable owner is displayed at each stage, the transfer is timestamped, and both parties can identify responsibility from the operating record without relying on private messages.
  4. Dated next action: Add “Confirm viewing availability” to fictional record “Buyer 104,” with a named owner and due date. Accept when the action appears in the team’s working view, becomes visibly overdue if left incomplete, and completion records a date rather than merely changing a general status.
  5. Exception handling: Submit a fictional enquiry with no contact preference and a request involving restricted personal information. Accept when routine automation pauses, the record enters the agreed exception queue, and a named reviewer documents the decision before any follow-up or data movement occurs.

Private Offer-to-Transfer Handoff

After an offer is accepted, create a private administrative handoff record and assign one named staff member as the document-request owner. That person records which approved request was sent, to whom, when, and whether a response was received, then routes submitted material to the authorised reviewer. The workflow may organise and remind; it does not assess FICA, compliance, legality, authenticity, or adequacy.

Maintain a milestone register for conveyancer notification, bond approval, suspensive-condition steps, and transfer events. Each status change requires confirmation by the authorised human responsible for that stage, with the confirmer’s name, date, and note retained. The system displays recorded facts and deadlines only; it does not interpret conditions, declare them fulfilled, or approve progression.

If a recorded due date passes without human-confirmed completion, alert the document-request owner, then escalate to the designated manager or conveyancer under the agency’s approved timetable. In a fictional pilot, acceptance requires staff to show that one test file names its owner, logs two human-confirmed milestones, and routes one overdue item to the authorised person; a human signs off the result.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Property & real estate systems FAQs

Does CompanyConnect replace our existing industry software?

Not automatically. CompanyConnect first maps the workflow and current system boundaries, then recommends whether to configure, integrate, consolidate or replace a platform.

Can the system support South African privacy requirements?

CompanyConnect designs access, data movement, retention and human approval controls with POPIA-aware operating practices. Formal compliance remains the responsibility of the organisation and its advisers.

Can implementation happen in phases?

Yes. Most teams begin with the workflow causing the greatest commercial delay or operational risk, prove adoption, and then connect adjacent processes.
