A buyer messages at 9 PM: 3 BHK in Kakkanad, under ₹80 lakh, ready to visit this Sunday. If nobody replies, they message the next business on the list.
An after-hours reply does not have to close the sale. It has to show a person will answer, and it has to collect the facts your team needs.
What the night reply should ask
- Budget
- Locality
- Day you can visit
Same facts, every time, so the morning shift is not starting from a blank chat.
A reply you can copy
Hi! Thanks for messaging us. Please share your budget, the locality and when you can visit. We'll send matching listings in the morning.

Frequently asked questions
Should real estate brokers reply at night?
Yes, with a short auto-reply that collects the details and says when a person will confirm. Silence sends the customer to someone else.
Does an auto-reply cost money?
The customer’s own message is free. Your first 1,000 replies each month, per number, are free in India. After that, replies are ₹0.115 each plus GST.
Can the whole team see that night message?
On a shared inbox, yes. The chat is on the business number, not on one person’s phone.
Final thoughts
The night message real estate brokers can send so a late enquiry is still there, with the details, in the morning.
