Mortgage CRM with Open House Lead Capture
Open-house attendees go cold in 48 hours. The buyer who walked through a $625k listing Saturday afternoon is talking to a different LO by Tuesday — unless someone on your side captures them at the door and texts them by dinner. Instant capture from the LO's phone, with same-day TCPA-compliant text follow-up, is the workflow that closes that window. This page covers five mortgage CRMs with mobile open-house lead capture, and is honest about which ones actually fire a same-day follow-up vs. which capture the lead and let it sit in a Monday-morning import queue.
The five CRMs we'd actually consider
Ranked on fit for open house lead capture. Pricing as of May 2026.
| # | CRM | Rating | Best for | Starting price | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Big Purple Dot | ★★★★★ | Mobile-first LOs running active open-house circuits with Realtor partners | $99/user/month | Mobile capture is the product's strength; broader CRM is thinner |
| 2 | ApprovrOur pick | ★★★★★ | Broker shops wanting capture plus AI follow-up in one stack | $97/month | Mobile capture + TCPA-aware 60-second AI text follow-up included |
| 3 | BNTouch | ★★★★★ | Retail LOs already using BNTouch for established Realtor co-marketing | $148/user/month | Mobile capture present; per-user pricing climbs fast |
| 4 | Whiteboard Mortgage CRM | ★★★★★ | Relationship-driven shops where Realtors drive open-house volume | $150/user/month | Capture-via-Realtor-portal model; AI lighter |
| 5 | Floify | ★★★★★ | POS-first shops with light open-house outreach needs | $79/user/month | Capture is secondary to the POS workflow |
Why open-house capture is a 48-hour problem
Open-house buyers decay fast. By the time a Sunday afternoon sign-in sheet reaches the LO's desk Monday morning, the most interested attendees are already pre-approved with somebody else. Three workflows separate CRMs that handle this from ones that just capture data. Mobile capture from the LO's phone at the door. The LO should open the Approvr mobile app at the open house, snap a contact card, or type name/phone/email into a sign-in form — and have the lead in the CRM, with TCPA consent captured, before the buyer walks out. CRMs that require a desktop or a separate sign-in app push capture to after-the-fact data entry, and 30-40% of leads get dropped or mis-keyed. 60-second TCPA-aware text follow-up. The instant the lead is captured, the AI should fire a personalized text — pulled from the LO's branded template, with the property address and a question about the borrower's timing. TCPA quiet hours (8am-9pm borrower local time) apply, so Sunday-evening captures hold until 8am Monday. Same-day Realtor partner attribution. The Realtor hosting the open house — and the listing agent if different — should both get attributed on the lead record. That matters for RESPA-aware co-marketing and for downstream tracking of where applications originated. CRMs that capture leads but drop the Realtor-attribution context lose the lender-Realtor data thread that explains where future business came from. The CRMs in this list differ meaningfully on all three of these dimensions.
What to look for in open-house lead capture
Five capabilities define open-house capture that actually moves leads to applications. Mobile capture from the LO's phone. Approvr's mobile app supports door-side capture — typed sign-in, contact-card snap, or QR-code self sign-in from the buyer's phone. TCPA consent is captured at sign-in (checkbox plus disclosure language); the lead lands in the CRM in under 30 seconds. 60-second AI text follow-up with TCPA windowing. The moment capture completes (and within TCPA quiet-hour rules), the AI fires a personalized text from the LO's branded template — property address, LO name, a question about the buyer's timing and pre-approval status. Sunday-evening captures queue until 8am borrower-local Monday. The AI handles back-and-forth: 'just looking,' 'pre-approved already,' 'what rate.' Realtor attribution and co-marketing context. The hosting Realtor is tagged on the lead record at capture. If a different listing agent is involved, both are tracked. Downstream nurture respects the LO-Realtor co-marketing agreement — Realtor name on outbound borrower nurture, RESPA-compliant cost-sharing defaults. Property context attached to the lead. The captured lead carries the open-house property address, listing price, and any details the LO captures (square footage, days-on-market). This lets the AI ask 'are you also looking in the [neighborhood] area?' in follow-up — instead of a generic 'thanks for stopping by.' Pipeline placement and lead-score weighting. The lead lands in a 'fresh open-house' pipeline stage with a score reflecting visit quality. The LO sees fresh open-house leads at the top of the Monday-morning queue, sorted by score.
