Buyer-side work

The "your Tuesday here" brief

A day-in-the-life simulation of a specific home for a specific client: their commute at their hour, the school run, where the morning light lands, and what 6am sounds like.

The idea

What this does

Buyers decide with their imagination and regret with their routine. This prompt builds the artifact that bridges the two: a narrated "week in your life" at a specific address, grounded in checkable facts, real commute times at their real hours, the geometry of where morning sun lands, documented noise sources by time of day. It is the consult follow-up clients read out loud to each other, and it surfaces the routine-level problems (the 8am school-run gauntlet, the dark winter kitchen) while there is still time to care.

Gather these first

Before you start

The property address and its orientation basics (which way the kitchen and yard face; the listing photos and parcel map usually tell you)
Your client's actual week: work locations and hours, school times, the gym, the Sunday habit
Web search turned on in your AI tool

Step by step

How to use it

Start a new chat named for the client and property.
Copy the prompt, fill in the life details honestly (the magic is in their specifics), and paste.
Check the two facts clients will check: the commute claim and the sun claim.
Send it to your client with one line: "before you decide, here is what an ordinary week actually looks like from this house."

You are helping me, a residential real-estate agent, build a grounded "week in your life" brief for my clients about [PROPERTY ADDRESS]. Use live web search for anything checkable. The rule that matters most: every concrete claim must be either verifiable (with source) or clearly labeled as an estimate. No invented specifics. My clients' actual life: - [PARTNER A: work location, days in office, departure time] - [PARTNER B: work location, schedule] - [KIDS: school/ages if relevant, drop-off time] - [ROUTINES: gym, place of worship, Sunday farmers market habit, dog, etc.] The home's orientation facts as I know them: [e.g. kitchen faces northeast, backyard faces south, from listing photos/parcel map]. Build: 1. TUESDAY, NARRATED. A morning-to-evening walk through an ordinary weekday from this address: wake, light in the kitchen (reason from the stated orientation and season), the actual commute chain with realistic times at those hours (source your route estimates), school run if any, the evening return, what the street plausibly sounds like at each point (flight paths, freeway distance, school two blocks over, documented with sources where possible). 2. SATURDAY, NARRATED. The weekend version: the errand radius, the walkable coffee, the park, the farmers market if their habit exists here. 3. THE HONEST FRICTION LIST. The three to five routine-level annoyances this location will actually produce for THIS family, stated plainly (a good decision survives honesty). 4. THE DELIGHT LIST. The routine-level joys they might not have noticed from the listing. 5. VERIFY BEFORE TRUSTING. The claims in this brief worth checking in person, and the exact time of day to visit to check each one. Tone: warm, concrete, second person ("you leave at 7:40"), zero sales language. Label every estimate as an estimate.

The result

What you'll get back

A Tuesday and a Saturday your clients can feel, grounded in checkable facts
The friction list that prevents the post-move-in surprise, delivered gently
Sun and sound described with reasoning, not vibes
A visit plan for testing the brief's claims in person

Level it up

Make it yours

Run it for the two finalist homes and ask for a side-by-side "same Tuesday, two addresses" version; that comparison decides deals.
Listing side: run it for your own listing's most likely buyer profile and ask for the three best routine-level selling points; they write your open-house talking track.
If the clients own a dog, say so; the dog's day is weirdly persuasive.

Keep it honest

The estimate labels are the integrity of the whole artifact; a client who catches one invented specific stops believing all of it.
Sun claims should reason from stated orientation; if you are not sure which way the kitchen faces, say "unknown" and let the visit settle it.
This brief describes the client's prospective life, never the current neighbors; keep it about place, light, sound, and time.
