Who handles each step of a launch, from the ad to the site visit?

The assistant replies and collects details from the first message; your sales team decides on price, unit and reservation. The split is the same for a project in New Cairo, the New Capital or the North Coast.

Stage	The assistant	Your team
Before launch	Works only from the approved project sheet: phases, units and sizes, delivery dates, payment plans	Approves the sheet and wording; Meta approves the templates
Ads go live	Replies to every chat a Click to WhatsApp ad opens and records the ad it came from	Marketing approves copy and budget; ad spend goes to Meta
First questions	Answers from the sheet and asks about budget, unit type, purpose and timing	Sales receives qualified Leads in the Inbox or the CRM
Down payment and installments	Answers only from the approved payment plans; special requests go to sales	Sales decides on any exception or discount
Site visit	Offers times from the sales calendar and reminds buyers who opted in	The salesperson confirms the visit and records whether it happened
After the visit	Sends approved follow-ups to buyers who opted in	Negotiation, reservation and contract stay with sales, and payment stays out of the chat

Meta's policy says not to ask people on WhatsApp for personal ID card numbers, full payment card numbers or financial account numbers. Keep the national ID, the reservation papers and the deposit with sales, at the sales office or in your own system.

New Cairo example

A down-payment question on launch Friday

On the Friday of launch week, the sales team is busy with visitors at the sales centre in New Cairo. A buyer messages from a Click to WhatsApp ad: "What's the down payment on a three-bedroom, and when is delivery?" The assistant answers from the approved payment-plan sheet, asks about budget and purpose, and offers Saturday or Sunday for a site visit. That evening the salesperson reads the whole chat in the CRM and confirms Saturday on WhatsApp.

Where do developers in Egypt lose project Leads on WhatsApp?

Ads bring more chats than sales can answer

In launch week, real estate ads on Facebook and Instagram open WhatsApp chats faster than sales can answer. A buyer who waits keeps asking other developers in the same area.

Down-payment questions with no approved answer

Many first messages ask about the down payment, the installment years and the delivery date. When each salesperson answers from memory, two buyers can get two different answers about one project.

Leads with no budget or purpose

Many chats are one word: "Price?". With no budget, unit type or purpose (a home, an investment or a summer place on the coast), the salesperson calls back blind.

A buyer in the Gulf, and calls that can't go out from an Egyptian number

An Egyptian buyer in Riyadh or Dubai messages at 11 pm, after the sales office closes. Meta's Calling API page (checked November 2026) rules out business-started calls on Egyptian +20 numbers, and WhatsApp calls are restricted in the UAE. Follow-up runs on messages: voice notes while the 24-hour window is open, approved templates after it.

Do you need a real estate marketing company or a partner for WhatsApp and ads?

Many real estate marketing companies sell units themselves and bring their own buyers. HumAI is not a brokerage: we run the ads that open WhatsApp, the assistant and the follow-up, then hand every Lead to your sales team or your brokers.

Project Leads stay with you, in your own CRM or Inbox.
We count results in attended site visits and promise no number of Leads.

Which rules apply to real estate marketing on WhatsApp in Egypt?

Names and rules to know before launch, not legal advice. Ask any provider how it handles consent, storage and deletion under Egypt's Personal Data Protection Law No. 151 of 2020.

Buyer data: Law No. 151 of 2020 set up Egypt's Personal Data Protection Center (PDPC), and the law's Executive Regulation is No. 816 of 2025. Agree with your provider which buyer details the assistant collects and where they're kept.
Opt-in and templates: Meta’s policies apply to every number. Launch messages and follow-ups you start need the buyer’s opt-in. Outside the 24-hour customer-service window after the buyer’s last message or call, only Meta-approved templates can be sent. Honour every opt-out request.
Messaging limits: Meta caps how many buyers you can reach outside the customer-service window in a moving 24-hour period, per business portfolio rather than per number. WhatsApp Manager shows your current limit; plan launch messages around it.
WhatsApp costs: Meta charges templates by category and the buyer’s country, so follow-up to a Saudi number uses the Saudi rate-card market. Since 1 October 2026, replies inside the 24-hour customer-service window are charged after 1,000 free replies monthly per business number; utility templates inside the window are charged too. If a buyer messages from a Click to WhatsApp ad on WhatsApp’s phone app and you reply within the customer-service window, Meta’s pricing page says a free entry point window opens. While it is open, for up to 7 days, marketing, utility, authentication and service messages are not charged, checked in November 2026.
Reservation deposit: Buyers may ask to pay the reservation deposit by InstaPay. The assistant explains the payment route your sales team approves and never takes a payment or card details in chat; HumAI takes no payments.

Questions from real estate developers in Egypt

How do I market a real estate project on WhatsApp in Egypt?

Start with a number on the official WhatsApp Business API, an approved project sheet with units, delivery dates and payment plans, and Click to WhatsApp ads with one offer each. The assistant replies in Egyptian Arabic or English and qualifies, sales confirms site visits, and buyers who opted in get follow-ups from approved templates. Plan follow-up as messages: Meta doesn't offer business-started WhatsApp calls on Egyptian +20 numbers (checked November 2026).

How do I get Leads for my project without them going cold?

A Lead goes cold while it waits. Have the assistant reply in Egyptian Arabic to every chat from the ad, even after your sales office in New Cairo or the New Capital closes. It asks about budget and purpose and offers a visit time. Buyers in the Gulf get follow-ups as voice notes while the 24-hour window is open and as approved templates after it. Nobody can promise you a number of Leads.

What's the best way to market real estate in Egypt?

No single way suits every project. For a launch in New Cairo, the New Capital or the North Coast, run ads that open a chat rather than a form. Answer down-payment, installment and delivery questions from your approved payment plans, and hand over to sales quickly. Compare channels by the site visits they bring, not by clicks.

What's the difference between regular WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business?

Regular WhatsApp is for individuals. The free WhatsApp Business app suits a small office. The WhatsApp Business API platform runs a whole sales team on one number, with an AI assistant, your CRM and opt-in campaigns. Use the official platform, not unofficial apps, so your number isn't exposed to the bans those tools cause.

Is HumAI a WhatsApp chatbot?

HumAI is a business solutions company. The AI assistant we manage for you does more than a menu bot with fixed buttons. It runs on the official WhatsApp platform, answers free text and voice notes from your approved project sheet inside an open 24-hour customer-service window, and hands over to sales, who decide prices and reservations. We also run ads, connect your CRM and report to management.
