Real Estate Phone
System for Teams
and Solo Agents
Close deals faster and answer every call by routing buyers to the right agent — all without hiring a full-time receptionist. Discover AccessDirect’s solution for realtors.
Real Estate Moves Fast. Your Phone System Should, Too.
In real estate, speed and professionalism are essential to success.
When you’re talking to leads, showing properties, calling lenders, answering buyer questions, and prepping for open houses all in the same day, your phone is always ringing. For both solo realtors and agencies, the pressure to stay available (and sound professional) never stops.
But if you miss even a single call, you might miss the sale of your life.
Nearly 70% of homebuyers choose a different real estate agent when their call doesn’t get answered quickly. If you’re relying on your personal phone to handle it all, burnout can happen fast — and clients will notice.
That’s why so many real estate professionals choose AccessDirect.
We help you manage calls automatically, so you can stay available and maintain a professional image with every caller. With AccessDirect, you get:
- A 24/7 virtual receptionist that answers every call, even when you can’t
- Call routing and phone menus that direct clients to the right agent or voicemail
- Dial-by-name directory to allow callers to reach your team easily
- Find me/follow me call routing to connect several lines to a central phone number
- Call screening to prioritize important calls and block spam
- Professional greetings recorded for free
Unlike most virtual phone providers, we don’t leave you to figure out the system on your own. We’ll set everything up for you from day one. Plus, any time you need changes, we’ll handle those for you too (at no extra cost).
With AccessDirect, you get a full-featured phone system made just for real estate teams, backed by friendly U.S.-based support. We learn the details of your business first, so we can help you find the right setup for your needs that will grow as your team expands.
Spend less time managing calls and more time building relationships.
6 Ways AccessDirect Benefits Real Estate Agents
Real estate already demands enough of your time. Your phone system shouldn’t add to the pressure. AccessDirect is designed to help you stay organized, sound professional, and get more done with less stress.
Reclaim Work-Life Balance (Even With One Phone)
Use one device for both personal and business calls — without giving out your personal number. You can route calls based on your own schedule, send after-hours calls straight to voicemail, or create special rules for when you’re out of office.
Save Time and Money (For Important Calls)
Our virtual phone system automates the busywork, so you don’t have to answer every call yourself or hire a full-time receptionist. That means more time for client meetings and closings (and less money spent on support staff).
White-Glove Setup (No Extra Hardware)
We’ll handle the full setup for you — no complicated instructions or extra equipment required. You can keep your current phone (cell or VoIP), and we’ll make sure everything runs smoothly from day one.
Unlimited System Changes (and Support)
Need to update your greeting for a holiday weekend? Want to change how calls are routed during peak season? Just let us know. Our U.S.-based team will make the changes for you, as often as you need.

Case Study: How Principal Realty Group Cut Costs Without Losing Their Professional Touch
When office rent became too expensive, Principal Realty Group made a smart move: they went fully remote. But working from home brought a new challenge — how to look and sound like one unified business when each agent had a different phone number.
With ten team members always on the move, they couldn’t afford to miss calls or confuse clients. That’s why they turned to AccessDirect.
We set them up with a virtual phone system that worked just like a polished front desk receptionist. We used one central number with an auto attendant, direct extensions, and a dial-by-name directory so every caller reached the right person — whether agents were at home or out showing properties.
We even converted their fax line to produce PDFs and email them straight to the team. No machines needed. We kept their original phone and fax numbers, so clients could still reach them the same way.
The Results:
- A professional presence without a physical office
- Reduced monthly overhead
- No missed leads or service hiccups during the transition
- One number to tie their entire brand together
Phone System Solutions for Every Type of Real Estate Business
Independent Realtors and Agents
When business and personal calls share the same phone, it’s tough to separate work from personal life. Unsaved numbers interrupt your time off, and personal voicemail greetings don’t reflect your brand. AccessDirect adds a dedicated business number to your phone, with custom call routing to flag or redirect business calls when you’re not working. Add voicemail-to-text and a professionally recorded greeting to stay responsive while protecting your time and your image — all from one device.
Real Estate Agencies
Small agencies need a central number that unifies all extensions and a way to direct calls to each of them — without hiring a receptionist. With AccessDirect, an auto attendant and a dial-by-name directory achieves this for a tiny fraction of a receptionist’s salary. This way, calls go directly to the right agent and callers enjoy a smooth, professional experience.
Multi-Office Real Estate Brokerages
Managing multiple realty offices can quickly get out of hand. To match client expectations, you need to keep branding and communication consistent. With AccessDirect, you can get a toll-free HQ number and a custom phone menu to direct callers by office, agent, or department. A central number gives your business a cohesive, professional front without the overhead cost of a receptionist.
