What is the Due Diligence Bot & How do I use it?

Learn how to effectively use the Due Diligence Bot for property assessments in acquisitions workflows.

Welcome to the Due Diligence Bot (DDBot) - a key tool in our acquisitions workflow that ensures every property meets our strict due diligence standards before it is presented to a client.

DDBot at a Glance

For on-market properties the online Acquisitions Team will complete the DD Bot and these properties will be uploaded automatically to Attio.

It is the responsibility of the PAA to double check the DD Report of any property completed by the online team. Property Acquisition Analyst’s will need to complete the due diligence bot for any off-market properties they have sourced themselves.

The Due Diligence Process starts once an off market property address has been received from your Agent contact. The purpose of this process is to check if the property passes our various checks and is suitable to be presented to our clients as a potential purchase.

      • Use Google Maps to capture relevant DD checks.
  1. Capture necessary screenshots:
      • Ensure screenshots include:
        • The pin.
        • The address.
        • Nearby suburbs.
