Question 1

Does OpenClaw connect directly to my MLS?

Accepted Answer

Not directly. It reads your MLS email alerts through Gog OAuth. You set up saved searches in your MLS portal (sold properties, your farm area, last 6 months), and the alerts flow into Gmail. OpenClaw parses those alerts automatically. No MLS API keys or RETS feeds required.

Question 2

How accurate is the price-per-sqft calculation?

Accepted Answer

It's mathematically exact — sale price divided by square footage for each comp. The accuracy depends on your MLS data quality. The agent calculates correctly; you evaluate whether the comps are truly comparable. That's the human review step.

Question 3

Can I adjust the comp filtering criteria?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The default filters (±20% sqft, ±1 bed/bath, 0.5 miles, 6 months) are configurable. Tighten or loosen any parameter. In rural areas, you might expand to 2 miles. In dense urban markets, you might narrow to 0.25 miles. It's a config file edit.

Question 4

What if my MLS alerts don't include all the data fields?

Accepted Answer

Different MLS systems include different fields in their email alerts. The agent extracts what's available. If your MLS doesn't include lot size in email alerts, that field will be blank in the CMA. Core fields (address, beds, baths, sqft, sale price, DOM) are included by most major MLS platforms.

Question 5

How long does it take to get this up and running?

Accepted Answer

ManageMyClaw deploys the CMA pipeline as part of the standard real estate deployment package. Infrastructure takes 48 hours, MLS alert configuration another 24. The database starts building from day 1. After 2–4 weeks of ingesting alerts, you've got enough data for reliable CMAs.
