Questions about RCS messaging for real estate agents and brokers

Can I send property listings as a carousel on RCS?

Yes. An RCS carousel holds up to 10 cards, each with a photo, title, short description and up to 4 buttons. For property, one card per flat with BHK, area, price and a Book a visit button works well and is easy to compare.

Do property messages on RCS need the RERA number?

Yes, if the message advertises a registered project. RERA requires the registration number and the authority's website in advertisements, so include them on project cards or in the brochure link. Resale and rental listings follow your state's broker rules.

Can I send listings to leads from property portals?

Only if the lead agreed to hear from you. A buyer who enquired about a property expects a reply about that enquiry. Sending unrelated launches or bulk offers needs consent, and promotional SMS fallback must avoid DND numbers.

How do I know which property a buyer liked?

Each button tap is reported as a click event with the card it came from. Your CRM can record that Rohit opened the Baner 2 BHK twice and tapped Book a visit, so the agent calls with the right property in mind.

Is RCS better than WhatsApp for real estate?

They work well together. RCS reaches Android buyers in their default inbox without an opt-in to a WhatsApp number and shows listings as a carousel. WhatsApp suits longer back-and-forth with a buyer who is ready to negotiate. Many agents start on RCS and move hot leads to WhatsApp.

Can an individual broker get an RCS sender?

Yes, if you have a registered business name, logo and contact details that Google and the operators can verify. Brokers working under an agency usually message under the agency's brand, so buyers see one consistent verified name.
