A homeowner becomes a new customer in HomeList, and the relationship with the realtor should continue after settlement. HomeList can start a Zapier workflow through New Customer, while Mobile Message sends an SMS to the homeowner or a realtor. A welcome note, a practical follow-up or a reminder about ongoing support can arrive without staff copying contact details into a separate messaging system.

The trigger is useful for real estate teams that want a consistent post-close touchpoint. The SMS can acknowledge the new customer record and introduce the continuing service your team provides. Mobile Message can also create a contact from the HomeList event, giving the number a place in your messaging records for future communication where the recipient has agreed to receive it.

HomeList provides one trigger and one action in the supplied list. The useful direction is from HomeList to Mobile Message, with Zapier passing the selected customer information into Send SMS or Create Contact. You choose the wording, recipient and fields, then test the workflow before enabling it.
