What the owner said and whether further contact is appropriate.
Owner acquisition intelligence for property managers
Know which rental owners are worth your team's attention.
Obsidian turns fragmented public rental and ownership signals into a reviewable evidence queue—then connects approved outreach, qualification, and handoff when those layers are in scope.
- Public-source research
- Configurable suppression
- Human-reviewable evidence
Evidence before activity
A queue your team can inspect—not a mystery list.
Every prioritized record should answer three questions: what was observed, why it fits the territory, and what must still be confirmed before contact. A score can help sort the work; it does not prove intent.
FRBO sourcing · Product capture
Turn a broad rental search into a focused owner-review queue.
Choose ZIP codes or cities, beds and baths, single-family homes, multifamily, condos or apartments, a rent range, and a minimum days-on-market threshold. Run the search to aggregate eligible owner-posted rentals from configured sources.
- 01Define the market
ZIPs or cities, asset types, beds, baths, rent band, and listing age.
- 02Inspect the source evidence
Open the underlying listing and review the fields actually available.
- 03Organize the next action
Normalize the candidates into a cleaner queue for verification or CRM handoff.
Consumer listing interfaces mix many listing types and are not designed to give a property-management team a territory-specific, CRM-ready FRBO queue. Obsidian compresses that research step while preserving a link back to the source.
The capture includes an example Zillow listing posted by an owner. Obsidian is not affiliated with or endorsed by Zillow. Availability, permitted use, and fields vary by source; records require review before activation.
Rendered operating workflow
From public signal to accountable handoff.
The animation shows the order of operations. Each stage retains a clear input, decision, and next state.
- 01Find
Collect eligible public listing records from the configured market and sources.
- 02Filter
Apply territory, rent, property-type, listing-age, and exclusion rules.
- 03Enrich
Resolve ownership and append permitted contact or property context.
- 04Screen
Apply configured suppression, quality checks, and review flags.
- 05Reach
Activate only the channels and cadence approved in the written scope.
- 06Qualify
Capture disposition, objection, stated interest, and follow-up conditions.
- 07Route
Send the evidence and next action to the assigned person or system.
Source permission, suppression, and channel rules are configured by engagement. Screening reduces avoidable risk; it does not create blanket legal permission or guarantee a response.
ObsidianReal™ · AI call handler · Edited sample
The useful output is not “a call.” It is a qualified routing record.
This recording demonstrates an AI call handler—not a human caller. The natural-sounding voice is generated by the AI system. The sample shows how an owner's objection can be classified, a relevant alternative can be explored, and the resulting context can be handed to a person. It is evidence of workflow capability—not a promise of conversion.
The reason behind the response, preserved for a human reviewer.
The next responsible action, including stop or follow-up instructions.
AI call handler · Edited stereo sample
AI owner-response qualification
What you are hearing: An edited demonstration of an AI call handler speaking with a rental owner. The call-handler voice is AI-generated, not a human caller.
The recording itself is the source. No written dialogue is presented as a verbatim transcript.
Edited for length and clarity. Names and identifying details are omitted. Recording and publication rights must be confirmed before using any real conversation as public proof.
What enters the decision
Observable context, separated from assumptions.
Rental activity
Owner-posted listings, visible listing age, price changes, re-listing patterns, and other availability signals where the source exposes them.
Ownership context
Mailing-address mismatch, portfolio indicators, property type, and other public context that helps a reviewer understand the record.
Territory fit
ZIP or city, rent band, beds, baths, asset type, and exclusions calibrated around the doors your company can manage well.
Response evidence
Disposition, objection, stated interest, follow-up permission, and handoff notes captured during an approved outreach workflow.

Straight answers
Before you map a market.
Is this another generic lead list?
No. The intended output is a traceable workflow: source evidence, ownership context, verification state, and the next approved action. Exact deliverables depend on the written scope.
Can you guarantee a specific number of FRBO owners?
No. Inventory changes, source coverage varies, and filters affect volume. A market review should establish the available source mix and a realistic operating range before any commitment.
Does a DNC or suppression check make every outreach legal?
No. Suppression is one safeguard. Channel, purpose, consent, jurisdiction, current rules, and caller behavior still matter. Obsidian does not provide legal advice or blanket compliance guarantees.
What happens before launch?
We confirm territory, asset profile, exclusions, data sources, permitted channels, handoff rules, access requirements, responsibilities, and the evidence that will be retained.
Start with the territory
See what is actually available before you buy activity.
Bring the ZIPs, property profile, rent band, exclusions, and current follow-up process. We'll map the practical workflow and its limits.
