Prompt Improved prompt

Improved prompt: strengthened by us to avoid the problem in the source. Not tested by the poster. It doesn't change what happened in the source.

Not sure how to start? Tell me what you're trying to get done and I'll help you turn it into a clear request.

Goal: Find houses that match my criteria and plan an efficient Saturday of inspections.

Quick check first: Which suburbs and budget, and where will you start from on Saturday?

What I need from you:
- Budget [BUDGET], minimum bedrooms [N], property style
- Suburbs to search ([SUBURBS])
- Your home suburb for route planning
- Your realestate.com.au account (you'll log in yourself if needed)

Rules:
- Search the listings site. If it blocks you or asks for a login, stop straight away and tell me. Don't keep retrying.
- If you're blocked, give me the exact search filters and a search link so I can run it, then work from the listing links I paste back.
- Shortlist only properties with an inspection time this Saturday. Check the time on the listing page.
- Plan a driving route from my home that fits every inspection time, with travel time between them.
- Don't contact agents or register for inspections.

Output: A shortlist with address, price, link and inspection time, plus a Saturday route in order. If the site blocked you, the filters and search link for me to use.

If any of this is unclear, tell me what you have and I'll help fill the gaps.

You'll know it worked when: you have a workable Saturday plan, or a clear next step if the site wouldn't let you in.
What the poster tried (original prompt)

The exact prompt from the source.

I am seeking to purchase a house in Melbourne, Australia. My budget is under ***** and I require a minimum of four bedrooms. My preference is for an older, yet livable property that allows for future renovation to increase value. I am initially focusing on the area and surrounding northern suburbs; however, I am open to considering any suburb that offers a better value within my budget.

Please log in to my account on https://www.realestate.com.au/ and search for properties that meet these criteria. If you find any suitable listings, save them to the “Home 2025” collection. Then, shortlist properties that will be available for inspection this Saturday.

Based on inspection times and route efficiency, please plan my Saturday accordingly, ensuring I can visit all shortlisted inspections. I reside in *****, and will be driving to each location on the day, so the itinerary should optimize travel from my home through all inspection sites.

Finally, please create a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation. Each shortlisted property should have a dedicated slide with its address, listing link, price, and a photo. Arrange the slides to match the planned inspection sequence from first to last.
