Yes, AI can draft listings and marketing, but agents remain responsible for accuracy and compliance: features, measurements and claims must be true, virtual staging should be disclosed, and wording must not breach fair housing rules.

AVMs can be useful estimates in data-rich markets but can be wrong for unusual properties, thin markets or homes with unrecorded changes. Professional valuations under standards such as the RICS Red Book apply judgement and inspection.
