Notify me when property price changes: the smart way to track real estate

Finding the perfect property often feels like a second job. You spend hours refreshing Zillow, Realtor.com, or local agency websites, hoping to catch a price drop before another buyer swoops in. In a competitive market, speed is the only advantage that matters. If you wait for a generic newsletter or a manual check, the deal is often already gone.

The solution is automation. Instead of wasting time on manual refreshes, you can set up a system that works for you 24/7. With tools like monity.ai, you can turn any property listing into a dynamic data feed that alerts you the moment a specific change happens.

Why manual tracking loses deals

Most real estate portals offer basic notification systems, but they are often delayed or too broad. They might send you an email once a day with a digest of "similar homes," which isn't helpful when you are tracking a specific dream home or an investment opportunity that requires immediate action.

By the time you receive a standard alert, professional investors using advanced monitoring tools have likely already scheduled a viewing. To compete, you need granular control. You need a tool that doesn't just look for any change, but specifically answers the request: "notify me when property price changes."

How to automate price alerts with monity.ai

monity.ai changes how you track the web by using artificial intelligence to understand what it is looking at. It is not just checking for pixel changes; it understands content. Here is how you can set up a robust price monitoring system in minutes.

1. Select your target listing

First, navigate to the specific property page you want to track. This could be a single listing on a major portal or a search results page filtered by your specific criteria. Copy the URL and paste it into monity.ai to create a new task.

2. Use AI prompts for precision

This is where monity.ai stands out. In standard monitoring tools, a change in the "similar listings" sidebar or a rotating banner ad might trigger a false alarm. You don't want that noise.

Instead, you can use the AI prompt feature. Simply type a natural language instruction such as:

• "Notify me when the price drops below $450,000."
• "Alert me if the status changes from Pending to For Sale."
• "Let me know if the price is reduced by more than 5%."

The system will scan the page at your chosen interval and only notify you if those specific conditions are met. This ensures that when your phone pings, it is actually important.

3. Handle complex websites with browser actions

Some real estate websites are complex. They might require you to click a "Show Price" button, close a popup, or log in to see exclusive investor details. Standard uptime monitors fail here.

monity.ai allows you to configure browser actions before the check is performed. You can instruct the monitor to click buttons, fill out search forms, or navigate through pagination to extract the exact data you need before the AI analyzes the price.

Smart summaries save you time

Receiving a notification is good, but knowing exactly what happened is better. When monity.ai detects a change, it sends you a notification via your preferred channel - be it email, Slack, Discord, or a webhook.

Included in this notification is a concise AI summary. Instead of sending you a screenshot and asking you to spot the difference, the alert will say: "The price for 123 Maple Street has been updated from $500,000 to $485,000." This allows you to make split-second decisions directly from your inbox.
