Why it works

Built for buyer-friendly speed

Real estate clients are time-poor and app-fatigued. Polls for Gmail meets them where they already are.

No app, no login

Buyers vote with a click. No "create an account to view your tour options" friction.

Drop into any newsletter

Your weekly listing email becomes interactive. Recipients answer without leaving their inbox.

Both partners vote independently

Send to a buyer couple — each clicks their own preference. You see both signals in your dashboard.

Private results

Voters see only their own pick. Only you see the full tally. Keeps client info contained.

FAQ

Real estate-specific questions

How is this different from sending a Calendly link?

Calendly is great for one-on-one scheduling. Polls for Gmail is better when you want a group to weigh in — picking the best of three showing times across a buyer couple, or shortlisting two properties from a list of five — without anyone leaving the email.

Do clients see other clients' votes?

No. Voters see only the option they picked and a thank-you. Only you, the sender, see the full results in your dashboard. That keeps client privacy intact when polling multiple buyers at once.

Can I embed polls in MLS-style listing updates?

Yes. Compose a regular Gmail email, drop in the poll using the add-on, and send to your buyer list. The poll renders inline in every recipient's inbox — no separate landing page or login.

Does this work with my buyer's preferred email — not just Gmail?

Yes. You create the poll from your Gmail compose window, but recipients can vote from any email client — Outlook, Apple Mail, mobile, etc. The vote button is a plain HTML link that works everywhere.
