Monitor Lis Pendens real estate filings via Telegram, BrowserAct and Gemini

Monitor real estate filings via Telegram, BrowserAct and Gemini

This workflow transforms your Telegram bot into an automated real estate monitoring tool. Send a message like "Check filings for the last 5 days," and the bot will scrape the official county clerk site for "Lis Pendens" (pre-foreclosure) filings, format the messy legal data into a readable report, and deliver it directly to your chat.

Target Audience Real estate investors, wholesalers, and agents looking for pre-foreclosure leads.

How it works Understand Request: The workflow receives your Telegram message. An AI Agent classifies it: are you chatting, or asking for real estate data? Calculate Dates: If you don't specify a date range, the workflow automatically calculates a default window (e.g., Today minus 5 days) to search for recent filings. Scrape Records: BrowserAct executes a background task to search the public records site using the calculated dates and scrapes all matching "Lis Pendens" filings. Format Data: A second AI Agent processes the raw legal text. It cleans up party names, extracts file numbers, and formats everything into a clean HTML list with download links. Deliver Report: The bot splits the report into multiple messages (if necessary) and sends them to your Telegram chat.

How to set up Configure Credentials: Connect your Telegram, BrowserAct, Google Gemini, and OpenRouter accounts in n8n. Prepare BrowserAct: Ensure the Texas Foreclosure Leads template is saved in your BrowserAct account. Configure Telegram: Create a bot via BotFather and add the API token to your Telegram credentials. Activate: Turn on the workflow. Test: Send "Check filings" to your bot to start the search.

Requirements BrowserAct* account with the Texas Foreclosure Leads* template. Telegram** account (Bot Token). Google Gemini* & OpenRouter* accounts.

How to customize the workflow Change Search Query: Modify the BrowserAct template to search for different document types (e.g., "Divorce Decrees" or "Probate"). Adjust Date Range: Update the From_Date node to search for a longer period (e.g., -30 days). Filter Results: Add logic to the Generate response agent to only show filings from specific banks or attorneys.
