Who Wins Data Wins AI: Inside Cherre’s Push to Rewire Real Estate Intelligence | LD Salmanson

Real estate data is messy, fragmented, and usually trapped in a dozen conflicting silos. LD Salmanson explains how Cherre turned that chaos into the backbone of modern property intelligence. This conversation digs into what happens when you fuse connected data, knowledge graphs, and agent driven AI into the financial systems that move the global built world. LD walks through the rise of enterprise grade AI agents, how banks are now underwriting loans in days instead of months, why humans are “just another model,” and what a future marketplace of reusable, chainable agents will unlock. The conversation ranges from semantic models to trust, from document intelligence to portfolio level decision making, and finishes with a surprisingly optimistic view of where humans still fit in an automated world.
