Inside ChatGPT Spaces, there are already built-in templates that you should consider checking out.

Go to Spaces, click All, and you will see options including a to-do list, a project tracker, a weekly update format, and a guide on how to use the feature. More formats are marked as coming soon.

What makes these templates useful is that ChatGPT partners with you to populate them. You are not starting from a blank structure and figuring out what to put where because ChatGPT can help generate the content that goes inside the template based on what you tell it.

For real estate agents, a weekly update template or project tracker built around an active listing or transaction has obvious practical value.

I did a demo of Pages in action: editing a ChatGPT Page through conversation rather than manual text editing.

In this example, ChatGPT wrote an Austin area market update inside a Page. To update it for the current month, all it took was typing a quick instruction in the sub-chat feature. ChatGPT updated the document, showed the sources it referenced, and waited for approval before applying the change.

From there, adding an image was one more step: Select the Image, choose Generate, describe what you want, and ChatGPT creates it directly inside the Page.

The combination of conversational editing and in-document image generation inside one workspace is a meaningful workflow improvement for anyone creating regular real estate content.

A Page in ChatGPT is a collaborative workspace where AI is an active participant, not just a tool you query separately.

Inside a Page you can write content, visualize data, create additional nested pages, add media and files, and use a sub-chat feature to make edits and updates through conversation, all without leaving the document.

For real estate agents, the immediate use case is content creation that lives in one place: a blog post, a market update, a neighborhood guide, a client-facing report. You build it, refine it, and update it all within the same Page.

ChatGPT just announced a major new feature: Spaces.

When you log in now, you will see a new Spaces option in the sidebar. Inside Spaces you can create Pages (live now), and coming soon: Slides, Sheets, Sites, Images, and Folders. You can also create multiple Spaces to organize different projects.

This is a significant shift in how ChatGPT is positioning itself: Moving from a conversation tool toward a full workspace where AI is built into every document and format.

Here is what the migration process from a custom GPT to a plugin actually looks like in practice.

When you click Migrate to Plugin, ChatGPT shows you a warning: "Features that use custom actions won't work in the plugin. You can migrate without them."

In this case the GPT was using a Zapier action to connect to a CRM. That action does not carry over. But here is the good news: ChatGPT's native plugin connections have expanded enough that in many cases you may not need the Zapier workaround anymore. ChatGPT can now connect directly to the same tools that previously required a Zapier bridge.

Once the migration completes, the plugin shows up in your ChatGPT and you can use it immediately in a new chat.

The process itself is not complicated. The work is in knowing which custom actions need to be rebuilt and whether a native plugin connection can replace them.

Before you migrate your custom GPTs to plugins, it is worth understanding exactly what carries over and what does not.

Inside a custom GPT you have instructions: what the GPT does, how it behaves, what it knows. Those transfer.

What does not transfer: custom actions.

In this example, the GPT was using a Zapier action to connect to a CRM and import contact information. That custom action does not migrate into the plugin. It has to be rebuilt by hand.

This matters because a lot of the most useful custom GPTs are probably using custom actions to connect to external systems. Those connections are the part that has to be rebuilt, not just migrated.

Know what is inside your GPTs before December 11.

ChatGPT just announced that custom GPTs are retiring on December 11, 2026.

Here is the part most people are not thinking about yet.

You can migrate your own custom GPTs into plugins. That is straightforward if you built the GPT yourself. But if you are using a custom GPT that someone else created (something you found in the marketplace or that a vendor, coach, or brokerage tech team shared with you) you have a problem.

You are entirely dependent on whoever built that GPT to migrate it to a plugin and give you access to it. They may do that migration. They may not. And in many cases, there is no easy way to contact them to find out.

If any custom GPTs are part of your current real estate workflow, now is the time to figure out which ones you own and which ones belong to someone else.

The NAR 2026 Realtors Technology Report just dropped and the numbers are worth paying attention to.

About half of Realtor members are using AI daily or weekly. The other half are experimenting, curious but haven't started, or in the 12% who say they are not going to use it at all.

Here is what stands out in how agents are using it:

Almost everyone is using AI for listing descriptions, social media posts, emails, and market summaries. But the numbers drop off significantly for things like pricing insights, lead generation prioritization, transaction timeline recommendations, and automatic client status updates.

Only 9% are using AI to create seller update reports automatically.

That gap is because those tasks require more than pasting a prompt into ChatGPT. They require connecting AI to your data, your systems, and a workflow that produces a reliable output consistently. That is a more advanced build, and most agents have not gotten there yet.

Which means the agents figuring out the advanced use cases right now are building an advantage that the other 91% have not started on.

What are you using AI for that is not on the usual list? Drop it in the comments. 👇
