Lightning fast ValPal Pro calls portal leads ‘in just a few seconds’
by Craig Vile
In the ultra-competitive world of estate agency, success often comes down to who calls the lead first. Who is quickest on the draw?
Do you want to be the hero blowing on their smokin’ gun? Or the one who has bitten the dust?
When a homeowner submits a valuation enquiry through Rightmove, Zoopla, or OnTheMarket, that same lead is usually sent to several local agents at once - the one who responds fastest tends to win the instruction.
Now, ValPal Pro has launched a game-changing AI-powered integration that ensures agents never miss out.
AI that responds instantly
The new ValPal Pro instant response system connects directly with seller enquiries from the major property portals. Within just a few seconds of an enquiry hitting the inbox, the AI system automatically:
- Calls the lead before competitors have even opened their laptops
- Qualifies the prospect using intelligent conversational logic
- Pre-books valuations straight into the agent’s diary
- Delivers faster response times and higher conversion rates
“While your competitors are still waiting for the laptop to boot up, your ValPal Pro AI Agent has already made the call – it’s lightning fast,” says Craig Vile, Director of The ValPal Network.
This technology means agents can engage leads instantly, 24/7, without manually chasing emails or juggling notifications - putting them firmly in control of the conversion race.
Why speed and automation matter more than ever
In today’s market, speed-to-lead isn’t a nice-to-have — it’s essential. Research shows that agents who contact a seller within the first five minutes of an enquiry are up to 10 times more likely to win the valuation.
That’s why automation has become a key pillar of modern proptech for agents.
“This is where automation isn’t about replacing people - it’s about giving agents the time and space to focus on building relationships and winning instructions,” says Vile.
“AI can take on the heavy lifting so negotiators can do what they do best: sell.”
The new integration represents a shift towards AI in estate agency that’s practical and profit-driven - empowering teams to deliver better customer experiences while saving time and cutting costs.
Future-Proofing your estate agency
As more agencies look to future-proof their business, ValPal Pro’s innovation offers a tangible edge. Rather than adding another dashboard or process, the new tool integrates seamlessly with existing workflows - responding to property valuation leads the instant they arrive.
“We know there’s a lot of noise in the industry about AI,” Vile adds.
“Some agents are understandably sceptical. But our focus is on showing how, in real-world scenarios like portal leads, automation can make the difference between winning and losing instructions. That’s the reassurance agents need - the competitive advantage ValPal Pro now delivers.”
The new portal integration is included as standard within the ValPal Pro platform and is available to agents now.
For agencies ready to combine speed, intelligence, and customer service, this could be the update that transforms how you win instructions.
If you’re serious about converting portal leads into instructions, instant response is everything. With ValPal Pro’s AI-powered automation, you’ll never lose a lead to a slower competitor again.
