A solo broker can build the CRM, CSV prospecting, draft sequences, and pipeline in a weekend, but reliable contact data, Gmail and Outlook sync, deliverability, compliance operations, and brokerage collaboration are ongoing products.

the prompt
Build me a local commercial real estate outreach workspace to replace LeaseLineage. Requirements:

- A local web app using Node, Express, better-sqlite3, and server-rendered EJS,
  with a little vanilla JavaScript; store everything in data/leaselineage.db.
- Import prospects from CSV with company, contact, title, email, market, asset
  class, property, source, and notes; deduplicate by lowercase email.
- Show a prospect table with search, filters, tags, and a detail page containing
  notes, activity history, and a next-follow-up date.
- Let me create a campaign from filtered prospects and draft a three-step email
  sequence with the OpenAI API; keep its key and optional SMTP credentials in .env.
- Every generated message must remain a draft until I approve it. Support test-send,
  scheduled send, daily send limit, unsubscribe footer, and a suppression list.
- Poll one IMAP inbox every five minutes, match replies by Message-ID and email,
  stop remaining steps for that prospect, and show replies in a unified inbox.
- Track opportunities on a kanban board with New, Contacted, Replied, Meeting,
  Proposal, Won, and Lost columns; moving a card writes an activity event.
- Provide CSV exports for prospects, campaigns, activities, and opportunities.
  Bind to localhost only; no accounts or telemetry beyond email and OpenAI calls.
- Out of scope: contact-data enrichment, Gmail or Outlook OAuth, multi-user teams,
  custom sending domains, and legal compliance guarantees.
- Include a README with setup, CSV columns, .env variables, IMAP app-password notes,
  backup instructions, and a warning that I remain responsible for lawful outreach.

why people still pay

They pay to keep contact discovery, inbox connections, reply attribution, sending controls, suppression, reporting, and team access working while they focus on brokerage.

questions
Can AI replace LeaseLineage?

Kinda. The core of LeaseLineage is buildable in a weekend with the prompt on this page, but there are real gaps: Apollo and Hunter prospect data, Gmail and Outlook OAuth and reply sync. Read the honest list above before committing.

How much does LeaseLineage cost?

LeaseLineage costs about $79/month (Pro, checked 2026-07-30), which is $948 per year.

What do I lose by replacing LeaseLineage?

Honestly: Apollo and Hunter prospect data; Gmail and Outlook OAuth and reply sync; managed sending and deliverability; brokerage team workspace; custom sending domains; hosted compliance and suppression operations. If any of those are load-bearing for you, keep paying.

Is there an open-source alternative to LeaseLineage?

Yes — Mautic (Open-source marketing automation platform that covers campaigns and contact management, without the commercial real estate workflow.). Using prior art is also a valid exit; the prompt is for when you want it exactly your way.
