New: Interactive suburb maps for Flex websites

New mapping features are being developed and rolled out to Flex websites. 1st off the line is this interactive suburb map available for all flex agent, office and national websites. It places map markers on all the suburbs where you have listings and allows visitors to pan around and zoom into suburbs to view listings: See the suburb maps in action on this website: http://www.remaxliving.co.za/suburb-map   The interactive suburb maps can be activated for any existing Flex powered website for R499 ex VAT .

All estate agents would like to notify potential buyers about a hot new property on the market as quickly as possible - Entegral’s SMS to Briefcase is just the tool to do so. Once you have captured and saved your listing on the OMS and your website has been updated, you can go ahead and notify your potential buyers about the listing via SMS. Perhaps you have a show day coming up for a property and want to notify potential buyers in your contact database on the show date, time and location. From the OMS dashboard you can choose the buyers you would like to notify about the new listing under the Contacts tab, select your buyers which you want to notify of the new listing or show day and send them to your briefcase.  After selecting the buyers in your data base that you wish to target, go to the OMS Briefcase to compile your invitation to view the new property listing.

How to write neighbourhood profiles for your real estate website

Image
Quality content on your website won’t just help boost traffic to the site, it will also help you to become a go-to agent for your area - especially with out-of-town-buyers. Why write neighbourhood profiles? Neighbourhood profile pages are an excellent lead generator that will build your credibility and reveal you as a market leader who truly knows the area. These pages are the first stop for buyers who are not familiar with the area and because you can provide the necessary information they will most likely choose you to be their real estate agent. Another bonus of a neighbourhood profile is the SEO boost it will provide for targeted areas. How to start Start by making a list of the neighbourhoods or even gated estates that you know best. Your personal expertise makes them easier to write about. These neighbourhood profiles can be added to your news section of your website, which will be delivered to your newsletter subscribers’ inbox automatically. If th
