Realtor software For Easy Property Posting

MVI has done numerous real estate listing sites that range from traditional residential property listings to commercial property listings.  Through our years of development, we’ve found a core set of functionality that all real estate websites need.  This includes managing properties, providing property search capabilities and allowing visitors to sign up as members.  Once signed up, those members are able to save listings to a favorites section and save their search criteria for fast and targeted search results.

All of this is completely customizable by MVI to your exact business needs.  After all, you need to separate yourself from your competitors in order to be successful.  This could be a custom design made to your preference or custom development that meets a business need specific to your company.  Whatever it is, MVI can help.

To get you started, below is a list of features that are available (any feature can be customized to your needs):

Visitors Section

This is the portion of the site that is available to any site visitor.

• Information Pages. These are content-managed pages that allow the visitor to learn more about your site. The pages include Home, About Us, FAQ, Testimonials, Terms of use, and Security & Privacy.
• Property Search. There are 2 ways to search for properties on the site. They include:
  1. Basic Search – this allows visitors to search by basic property criteria (e.g. number of bedrooms, number of bathrooms, price range, city, etc.)
  2. Advanced Search – this allows the visitor to search for properties based on all of the property information (e.g. square footage, amenities such as a pool, garage, etc.)

Member Section

The member’s section is a password-protected section only members have access to. From here they can manage their basic profile information, search for property listings (via basic, advanced and saved searches), and manage their favorite properties list.

• Member Sign Up. Members sign up is a quick and easy process where the visitor simply enters their name, current address, telephone number, email address, username and password.
• User Profile. Ability to change user profile as entered during registration (see above).  The member will be able to log in at any time to update their profile information.  The member is also able to set a “new property” notification flag.  If activated, the member will be emailed whenever a new property is added to the site that matches one of their saved searches.

• Employee Manager. This section allows the administrator to manage employees that have access to the administration area.  Employees will be restricted access to only the administration areas they have been given access to by the administrator.
• Property Manager. This section allows the administrator to manage property listings available to site visitors and members. The administrator will be able to add/edit/delete/enable/disable properties for the site. This includes adding up to 8 photos for each property and identifying the “featured” photo that displays in search results.
• Member Manager. This section allows the administrator to manage members that have signed up on the site. This includes adding new members, deleting members and enable/disabling members.
• Content Manager. This section allows the administrator to manage the content on the pages listed under the “Site Visitor” section above via a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor.  This gives you the ability to keep fresh content up on the site.

Capture Leads and Turn Them Into Customers

We can integrate your real estate website with our robust Full Spectrum software.  By having visitors fill out a form on your real estate website, they could be automatically inserted as a lead into the Full Spectrum software.  You could then manage them through the lead process through conversion into a client.  Imagine the possibilities and endless growth potential of your web presence by providing visitors with an appealing, informative real estate website that features your listings and then being able to turn them into a customer.
