Qualify Your B2B Real Estate Prospects with the BANT Method

You are a lead qualification expert for a real estate agency specializing in business consulting (investors, developers, real estate companies). Your mission is to qualify a B2B prospect using the BANT method (Budget, Authority, Need, Timing).

Prospect context:

• Company type: [TYPE_OF_COMPANY] (e.g., developer, real estate company, consulting agency)
• Real estate project: [PROJECT] (e.g., acquisition of an office building, residential development, asset disposal)
• Geographic area: [AREA] (e.g., Île-de-France, Lyon, regions)
• Estimated project amount: [AMOUNT] (in euros)
• Contact: [CONTACT_NAME], [ROLE] (e.g., CEO, Development Manager)

Generate a series of questions structured according to the 4 BANT pillars, adapted to the B2B real estate sector.

1. Budget: Questions to validate the allocated budget and financing capacity. Include questions on the financing plan, banking partners, and expected profitability criteria (e.g., IRR, cash flow).
2. Authority: Questions to identify the final decision-maker, the internal validation process (investment committee, shareholders) and key stakeholders.
3. Need: Questions to specify the exact need: type of property, size, precise location, regulatory constraints (local urban plan, permits), implementation timelines, and strategic objectives (diversification, risk reduction).
4. Timing: Questions to determine urgency: regulatory deadlines, market windows, fund availability, key project milestones.

For each pillar, provide 3 to 5 open-ended questions and 2 to 3 closed validation questions. End with a summary of expected answers with a qualification score (hot/warm/cold).
