Expose Your Real Estate Services to the World
The number of prospective home buyers using the web as their primary search tool
has grown by leaps and bounds in the last few years. A 2006 report showed that nearly
two in five adult internet users in the U.S. have used the internet to search for
a place to live. Half of internet users between the ages of 18 and 29 have looked
for housing information online (View PDF Report). This number will only get bigger as younger
Americans who grew up using the Internet begin to buy their first homes, while older
Americans continue to get more "web savvy."
Unless you have been living under a rock for the past ten years, the statistics
we have mentioned should not be too surprising. As a real estate broker or agent,
we are certain that you would love to be a part of this popular and growing trend.
Who would not want to expose their inventory and name-brand to such a huge audience?
Unfortunately, having a good, professional web presence means that
you either need to be a programmer and designer (with lots of time allocated for
implementation) or it means that you'll have to spend top dollar to hire professionals
to do it for you. Doing it "on the cheap" almost always results in amateur looking
websites that look highly templated. This will not only make you less effective
in building name recognition, but may also cause some people to view your office
and services as being less than professional.
Xtensible Real Estate Management System breaks down all of those barriers.
We offer high quality, professional web sites that will
provide the web presence you are looking for. All designs are custom built to our
clients' specifications by a professional web designer. We don't use any templates
- you can be sure that your website will unique. Further, as Search Engine Optimization
(SEO) professionals, we help get your website more exposure because your site will
rank higher in search engine searches (i.e. Google, Yahoo!, etc.). Best of all,
we are able to bring all of this to you at a low cost due to our "shared platform."
Manage Your Website
Our platform allows you and your associates to easily update web pages - technical
skills are not required. With Xtensible Real Estate Management System, your
web content can be managed effortlessly. The power to modify your own content allows
you to keep your website up to date; you can make changes to your content whenever
you want and for as many times as you want. Under many competing platforms your
content will often grow stale because you will need to schedule updates (no matter
how small) to be made by a web designer. Unlike our solution, because a paid professional has to make
those updates for you, you will need to pay a fee or surcharge as well.
Updating web listings in the Xtensible Real Estate Management System is also
easy. Your sales and rental listings update instantly as data gets entered into
the system. Agents can easily tweak what listing information is displayed to the
user; for instance an agent might not want to display a listing's full address.
Using the Xtensible system, an agent can easily accomplish this.
Manage Office Inventory and Prospective Buyers/Renters
Xtensible Real Estate Management System provides much more than just a website.
It is an office management system. Your associates can manage sales and rental listings
from any where in the world (including home, or while on vacation) by visiting our
system's secure website. Our management system also allows you to keep track of
prospective buyers just as easily as you can manage listings. You can even control
how your associates manage their own listings and buyers.
Xtensible Real Estate Management System is already a very powerful management
tool - and it will continually receive new enhancements. The first half of 2008
will introduce more web content management tools, more reports and an interface
to your wireless device (i.e. cell phone) so that you can easily import contacts
from our system to your phone and vice-versa.
The Xtensible Advantage
Xtensible Web Solutions tears down the cost barrier by our innovative
use of a "shared platform." Normally, to have a custom built website of similar
quality to a site built on top of the Xtensible Real Estate Management System
platform would cost several thousands of dollars. The Xtensible solution
is to have that cost shared by all of our clients, so that each client only pays
a fraction of the cost. You might be wondering if this means that all of our clients'
websites look similar or if they are built off of templates. No! All of our solutions
are custom built by a professional web designer. The "shared platform" refers to
the bits that your customers will never see, your website's "plumbing." This allows
the bulk of your funds to be used for what you really care about - the look and
feel of your site, rather than the things you don't care about (but need) - the
"plumbing."
A major advantage that our solution offers is that your management suite and website
will receive all patches, updates and feature enhancements. This is not the
case with other solutions. Getting fixes or updates to a website developed by many
of our competitors can be difficult and/or expensive. Websites developed by software
developers that do not specialize in Real Estate will charge for enhancements and
may not be available to fix bugs, kinks or other kinds of issues your website may
be having. Another pitfall is that If websites developed by non-specialists almost
always bill for all feature enhancements, minor or large.
