In a short time, Tallo has answered 3,536 renter leads for Nicky and helped her rent more than 100 homes. She finally has the time to be there for her family, grow her client relationships and generate more revenue.
"Tallo has been a game changer for my real estate business. It keeps my leads organized, automates follow-ups, and makes it easy to stay on top of everything. Instead of spending hours on the little tasks, I get to focus on what I love: helping my clients buy and rent homes."
Before Tallo: everything by hand
Nicky wears a lot of hats. She manages rental homes for investors across several states, helps her clients buy and sell, and has a large family.
Before she found Tallo, Nicky was overwhelmed by leasing volume. The leads never stopped. Nights, weekends, holidays. Every message she received had to be worked in the same repetitive way: she would respond to the renter, ask the screening questions, write the answers in a massive spreadsheet, follow up, book the showing, and update the sheet again.
With hundreds of renters reaching out every month, something always slipped. Leads sat unanswered overnight and went cold, follow-ups got missed, showings fell through. Some homes sat empty longer than they should have.
Renters are 3x more likely to rent when they get an answer within 2 minutes, and 58% of leads come in after hours, when a busy agent cannot reply. Nicky knows better than anyone that speed matters, and the hardest part of her job was knowing that no matter how many hours she put in, she could not give every renter, every investor and every client the attention they deserved. There just was not enough of her to go around.
What changed with Tallo
After moving all of her listings into Tallo, Nicky was finally able to deliver the experience her renters deserved and get her life back. Now:
- All her leads live in one place. Tallo connects to the systems she already uses, so every lead from every listing updates automatically in one place. She no longer has to enter and update a spreadsheet by hand.
- Every lead gets an answer in minutes, day or night. Nicky trained Tallo on her screening questions and her rules, and it keeps getting better the more she uses it.
- She manages leads instead of chasing them. Tallo qualifies renters and moves them toward a showing. Nicky steps in at the key moments to make sure nothing gets stuck, and makes all the decisions.
- Follow-ups and automations are built in. Tallo moves renters through the funnel without Nicky having to step in, which means no more cold leads and no more no-shows.
- Her investors stay in the loop. Custom reports give the owners she works with real context on how their properties are doing, without Nicky building updates by hand.

Her time now
The hours she spent answering "Is this still available?" now go to her buyers, her sellers, her investors and her family. Leasing became the part of her business that takes care of itself.
"I love having my wife back."
"It's rare to find a company that genuinely wants to see your business succeed. Patrick and the team actually listen to feedback and are always making the platform better. I recommend Tallo to any agent looking to save time, stay organized, and close more deals."
Nicky's numbers are from her Tallo account as of August 2026. The response-time and after-hours figures are industry-published averages, not Tallo data.
