Overran with spam calls. Need help answering the phone.
So my wife and I have a real estate company. We have people help us from time to time, but on a per job basis.
We probably get 30 to 40 calls a day and sometimes more from, robo calls, telemarketers, and wholesalers trying to sell us a property where the numbers do not make any sense whatsoever. In the mist of so many spam and junk calls there could be a real live seller in the mix.
If all we did was answer the phone for telemarkers, we would not get anything else done throughout the day. At least that’s the way it feels after taking so many calls. We have started allowing some of the calls to go to voicemail. I know this is not advisable, but it is what it is.
What service or method have others used that is cost-effective to answer phone calls?

If you are looking to make sure no sellers are missed, a VA could be the right move. These servicers are typically cheap and you can train them to do a quick upfront vet of deals as well. If you are okay with missing a seller or two in the process and are looking for the lowest cost, a phone filtering software previously mentioned is probably your best route.
