AI Tools for Commercial Real Estate (Fall 2025 Edition)

If you haven’t noticed, we’ve been exploring use cases, training, and tools related to AI in commercial real estate a lot lately! The reason is that Artificial intelligence (AI) is poised to revolutionize the commercial real estate industry by transforming the way acquisitions, development, management, advisory, and marketing teams in the industry operate. AI tools are enabling CRE teams to process vast amounts of financial data, automate repetitive tasks, repackage existing content in more palatable formats, and gain valuable insights that can inform strategic decision-making.

In this blog post, we explore some of the AI tools that are most relevant to commercial real estate. This space is moving very fast. And so, as the industry adopts these tools, and as entrepreneurs create new tools, we will regularly release updated editions to this post.

Several years ago, we began adding updates to the key AI tools that we view as applicable to CRE. Those updates are included as bullet points to the tools below. We’ve also begun to add and remove tools based on their adoption, continued development, and/or emergence. We update this post on at least a quarterly basis, or as major updates came along.

Regular AI Use Is the New Baseline

Artificial intelligence—whatever that actually means these days!—is rapidly becoming an integral part of how work gets done in commercial real estate. Whether you’re in acquisitions, development, management, investor relations, or brokerage, using AI regularly is now the expected baseline in a growing number of firms.

The true differentiator now lies in how reflexively you use these tools—integrating them seamlessly into your daily tasks to streamline workflows, automate tedious processes, and unlock new insights. By adopting an AI-first mindset, you free up time from the mundane and focus on what truly moves the needle: strategic thinking, better decision-making, and stronger relationships.

This guide introduces you to a growing list of AI tools applicable to real estate, each designed to help you work smarter, faster, and more efficiently.

Conclusion – AI for Commercial Real Estate

AI is already changing the way we work in CRE. At Stablewood we underwrote over 50,000 deals and automated the creation of dozens of deliverables using AI—so I’ve seen the impact firsthand. The tools we’ve highlighted here are representative of what’s available, and they’re helping professionals move faster, work smarter, and make better decisions.

But a tools list isn’t enough. The key is knowing which tool to use for what task and how to use them effectively. That’s where education comes in. Whether you’re tinkering on your own (which is how I learn!) or joining a community-based AI learning environment like the AI.Edge, what matters is that you’re learning by doing.
