Buyers are looking to not only streamline the process but limit the process between the buyer bank and seller.. Realtors don't realize that the banks will turn on them and streamline the process for buyers and sellers taking the realtors cut for themselves leaving realtors out of the loop..

Every house is different with subjective and objective positive and negative qualities.

As is every buyer/seller has a unique personality, goals and circumstances.

No transaction is the same.

Middle men who do basically no work will be the primary target of AI-researchers because there is no sympathy for those that do this type of work.

Likely because AI complete the majority of the tasks that a Realtor does.

Buyers don't want to go see real estate, but they want to be sure that the property is in excellent condition. The less they travel, the better and the price they want low compared to the market.

There's definitely a communication aspect. However, a lot of people from my generation (20 somethings) are weirdos and hate talking to people, so this will probably be a miracle for them.
