AI Modeling in Commercial Real Estate

Has anyone found any AI tools that have helped them build out CRE Excel spreadsheets faster, easier, and more accurately?

I've played around with a few add-ins but they're pretty cumbersome and take about the same time to develop a formula as just inputting it yourself. 

I am happy to dig into any add-ins or websites that people have had success with.

Ah, the quest for the perfect tool to streamline your CRE Excel work, I can relate! Based on the most helpful WSO content, there's a tool called Jackfruit.ai that might be of interest to you. It's designed to automate a lot of the job process, including organizing contacts and integrating job applications. It even has a 1-Click chrome extension to add jobs/applications from LinkedIn to the platform.

On the other hand, if you're looking to master Excel, there's a resource called https://www.adventuresincre.com/re-modeling/ that's been mentioned as a great place to learn more real estate oriented Excel analysis.

Remember, the right tool can make a world of difference, but nothing beats a solid understanding of the fundamentals. Keep swinging from those branches, and you'll find the perfect tool for your needs!

No I find the excel forumlas chat gpt writes are total trash. I use AI for construction related line items in case I miss something in my development models.
