When to Use

Use General Agent when:

  • You’re exploring and not sure what you’re looking for yet
  • You need to navigate multiple areas in one session

  • You need systematic property search (use Property Search Agent)
  • You want a structured, guided workflow

Tips for Best Results

1

Be specific

The more context you provide, the better the agent can help. Include location, property type, and what you’re trying to accomplish.
2

Guide the direction

Tell the agent what you’re trying to accomplish. It adapts to your needs but works best with clear goals.
3

Use checkpoints

Save intermediate results for complex analyses. This lets you return to previous states without re-running work.
4

Ask follow-ups

Build on previous responses to refine your research. The agent maintains context throughout the conversation.
