From Direct Mail to AI: How Data is Changing Real Estate Investing
Description
Jason Macht began his career in engineering and product management, helping build large-scale financial systems β including direct mail campaigns sending millions of pieces per month.
After transitioning into real estate, he applied that same data-driven mindset to investing, focusing on scaling through multifamily properties and eventually building systems to support other investors.
The conversation dives into:
- Why scaling in multifamily units made more sense than single-family investing

- Automating lead intake, follow-up, and qualification
- Leveraging AI for call analysis, CRM updates, and sales insights
- Reducing missed opportunities by capturing leads 24/7
