Override A Contact's Buyer Or Seller Classification
Buyer searches missing? Seller property not showing up? dreamif.ai may have classified the contact wrong. Here is how to fix it.
Steps#
- Go to the People page and click the contact.
- Switch to the Nurture tab.
- Find the lead classification dropdown. It shows the current value (e.g., "Buyer prospect") with a badge: AI or Manual.
- Switch from AI (recommended) to Manual override.
- Choose the correct classification:
- Buyer prospect — looking to buy, not yet a client
- Seller prospect — thinking about selling, not yet a client
- Buyer + seller prospect — both
- Active buyer client — you are actively helping them buy
- Active seller client — you have their listing
- Active buyer + seller client — both
- Not a lead — someone you do not plan to work with (a vendor, a personal contact, etc.)
- The change saves automatically.
Why this matters#
The classification controls what tools appear on the contact's Nurture tab. If someone is classified as a buyer, you see buyer searches. If they are a seller, you see seller property. If the classification is wrong, those tools are hidden — that is usually why they seem "missing."
When to override#
- A buyer contact has no Buyer searches section.
- A seller contact has no Seller property section.
- A prospect just signed with you and is now an active client.
- dreamif.ai thinks someone is a buyer when they are actually a seller (or vice versa).
For most contacts, AI (recommended) is fine. Only override when something is visibly wrong.
