The real difference

Two very different value propositions.

Market Leader sells you leads bundled with a CRM. Jtek sells you a CRM at $60/mo: your sphere, your social, your traffic.

Jtek: built around an agent's day

From missed call to signed contract

  • Missed call at 11:42 while you're showing a home: text sent, lead tagged, reminder set. Automatic.
  • A new IG save on your listing triggers an auto-DM asking if they want the open house address.
  • Pre-built pipelines and automations mean you start working in minutes, not after a week of configuration.
  • Flat $60/mo. No bundled-lead markup. Bring your own traffic, keep your own margin.
  • AI assistant drafts follow-ups, summarizes calls, and suggests next steps. Not a separate add-on.

Market Leader: built around bundled paid leads

Pay-for-leads, plus a CRM and a marketing site

  • Bundled monthly volume of guaranteed exclusive paid leads.
  • CRM, marketing website, and email engine, packaged with the lead-gen.
  • Pricing varies by lead volume: typically $139+/mo at minimum, scaling well past $300/mo.
  • No native social DM auto-reply or missed-call auto-text.
  • AI features are limited compared to modern CRMs.

FAQ

What real estate agents ask us.

Short answers. No fluff.

Why would I pay $60/mo when Market Leader gives me leads?

Two different math problems. Market Leader is a lead source bundled with a CRM. Jtek is a CRM that helps you convert the leads you already get from your sphere, social, sign calls, and referrals. Most agents close more from owned channels than purchased ones, and the $60/mo flat means you keep more margin per close.

Does Jtek do paid lead-gen like Market Leader?

Jtek does not include IDX (intentional, so bring your existing IDX site and pipe leads in via webhook). Jtek does include landing pages and forms. Buying leads is a separate decision. If you want both, you can run paid Facebook/Google ads to a Jtek landing page and keep all the lead value yourself.

Can I migrate from Market Leader to Jtek?

Yes. Most agents are fully set up in under an hour. Export your Market Leader contacts as CSV, import into Jtek, pick a pre-built pipeline template. You can have Jtek live before your next Market Leader invoice.

What about a free trial?

14 days free, cancel anytime. You can test the full product (missed-call auto-reply, pipeline, AI assistant, and social integrations) before committing. Market Leader is demo-gated with no public free trial.
