Setlume. Real Estate, Clearly Closed.Request quotes

Provider pilot

Closing files worth quoting, with context up front.

Setlume gives BC law firms and notaries a cleaner way to receive residential conveyancing opportunities: reviewed client requests, scoped file context, private response links, and quote comparisons that let you explain fit, assumptions, and service level.

What you receive

Enough context to decide whether a file is worth quoting

A Setlume request is meant to look more like an intake brief than a loose lead. The pilot starts with the details providers usually need before they can price responsibly.

Transaction context
Purchase, sale, refinance, transfer, or pre-sale, plus city, region, property type, value, and closing date.
Readiness signals
Signed contract, hiring timeline, mortgage status, realtor or broker involvement, and whether the client is still shopping.
Complexity flags
Strata, remote signing, private mortgage, non-resident party, estate/probate context, company buyer, tenants, and urgency.
Quote scope
A response form that separates legal/professional fees, disbursements, taxes, other fees, included work, and exclusions.
Private link access
Each request is accessed through a long, expiring provider token. It is not a public marketplace listing.
Contact controls
Consumer contact details can stay hidden until Setlume releases them or an introduction is appropriate.

Why providers join

Built for how you actually quote

The provider side is intentionally narrow for the pilot: fewer requests, stronger context, and a quote format that gives your scope room to show.

Structured intake
Each request arrives with transaction type, property, location, timing, and complexity flags collected before it reaches you.
Better-fit files
Setlume reviews every request and routes it to a small set of suitable providers, so you hear about work that matches how you practise.
Clear quote requests
Respond through a private link with fees, assumptions, and exclusions, instead of playing phone tag to learn the basics.
Value beyond price
Explain your scope, communication style, and approach so clients can choose on fit, not only the lowest number.
Pilot learning loop
During the pilot, we track what makes requests quoteable, where consumers need clarity, and which provider fits should be refined.

The difference

A Setlume request vs. a typical lead

The goal is not more leads. It is requests with enough context that quoting is worth your time.

A typical lead
  • A name and a phone number
  • Little context about the actual file
  • Shopped across many providers at once
  • You chase details before you can quote
  • Hard to show anything beyond a number
A Setlume request
  • Reviewed for completeness and seriousness
  • Transaction, property, timing, and complexity up front
  • Routed to a small set of suitable providers
  • Quote scope and assumptions in one place
  • Room to show fit and service, not just price

How it works for you

Provider workflow

A simple, private path from request to response, with no open inbox or bidding war.

1
Setlume reviews the intake
We check completeness, transaction type, timing, region, and file complexity before routing.
2
You receive a private link
A scoped quote link for one file, sent only to selected providers.
3
You decide whether to respond
Review the core facts before investing time in a full quote.
4
You submit a comparable quote
Fees, assumptions, included work, exclusions, and contact details in one response.
5
Setlume returns results
The consumer compares fit, scope, and communication style before asking for an introduction.

Quote response

The response form makes quotes comparable without flattening your service

Consumers need a clear number, but providers need room to explain what that number assumes. Setlume separates fee components from scope, exclusions, and value proposition.

Pilot fit

Who this is for right now

Setlume is not trying to onboard every provider at once. The pilot works best with offices that already know their conveyancing scope and can respond clearly.

  • BC lawyers and notaries who handle residential purchases, sales, refinances, and related transfers.
  • Firms that can respond quickly enough for real closing timelines.
  • Providers willing to quote scope and assumptions clearly, not just send a single fee number.
  • Offices comfortable with a curated pilot while request volume and coverage are still growing.
Not a public bidding board
Requests are reviewed and routed to a small provider set. We are not trying to blast every file to every office.
No legal advice from Setlume
Setlume supports intake, routing, and comparison. The provider remains responsible for legal or notarial services.
Billing stays manual during pilot
Provider billing is tracked manually until payment structure and compliance review are settled.
