Business competition can be cutthroat, especially in ever-changing real estate markets where players are getting even more crafty.
Scroll down to look at some of the must-have features for real-estate apps you should implement into your product to defend your market position and build your competitive advantage.
Call or Direct Messaging
What users expect from your app is simplification of the property hunt process. Enable customers to easily connect with the agents or property owners through direct calls, online chat, or callback options by adding the call or direct messaging feature.
Locations & Maps
A built-in map can provide viewers with tons of valuable information. In addition to property location, you can display such useful data related to the selected properties like neighborhood photos and videos, community description, area statistics, school rankings, local attractions, etc.
Smart Push Notifications
Whether it’s about new listings, property updates, or price drops you can rely on push notifications to reach out to your customers.
Beware of overly pushy or too frequent notifications, they’re only going to annoy your audience, causing increased opt-outs.
Mortgage Calculator
Pricing is clearly one of the most essential factors during property purchase or sale. Integrating a cost calculator in the app will help end-users get an idea of the average property cost. The feature makes it easy to calculate information like initial payment range, taxes, loan repayment EMIs, and loan interest amount.
3D Virtual Tour
Visual tours, or immersive tours, in real estate is the latest trend that you can use to reach a wider audience, get instant engagement from users, as well as to help save time and reduce costs for both buyers and sellers.
