Description

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.
