Live Apartment Search
Give every prospect their own live apartment search.
Give renters a professional way to search apartment listings. You decide which listings they see. Your client can browse on their own time, save the apartments they like, and come back to you with a much clearer idea of what they want.
Why Offer a Live Search?
Renters expect an apartment locator to have access to apartment listings.
When someone works with a real estate agent to buy a home, they expect to search residential listings. Apartment renters are likely to have a similar expectation when they work with a licensed apartment locator.
Your leads are going to research apartments online whether you give them a search tool or not. Sharing your own Live Search keeps the apartment research connected to you.
If your client is going to search apartments online anyway, give them a search tool built around the locating service you provide.
Their search gives you useful information too.
When a client saves a favorite property, you can see what catches their attention instead of relying only on what they told you during the first conversation.
- See which apartments they save as favorites.
- Learn what types of properties they will consider.
- Use their choices to guide your custom recommendations.
A Search You Control
You set the boundaries.
Giving a client a Live Search does not mean handing them unrestricted access to your apartment database.
You decide the properties you are comfortable including in your Live Search.
- Set the minimum commission. All properties below that commission are automatically removed.
- Set the minimum price. All properties below that rent are automatically removed.
- Set the year built. All properties built before that year are automatically removed.
- Your client can update their search criteria as often as needed to get more search results.
You decide what they can search. They show you what they like.
The Locator Can't Be Replaced
Apartment listings are not the same thing as apartment locating.
A Live Search can help a renter browse apartments. It cannot replace the knowledge and advice an experienced locator brings to the search.
You know the market, commissions, specials, neighborhoods, management companies, qualification issues, and the details that may not appear in an apartment listing.
The Live Search organizes the listings. You provide the expertise.
- Your client can explore apartments at their convenience when you may not be available.
- You can see the properties that interest them.
- You help compare and narrow their choices.
- You provide the inside information only a locator would know.
- You remain the person guiding the apartment search.
No Website Required
Professional apartment search tools are not just for large locating companies.
Large locating companies have been able to put apartment search tools on their websites for years. Building that type of search from scratch can require a custom website, apartment data, development work, and ongoing maintenance.
Locator IDX removes most of that work. The apartment search and client-facing tools are already built and connected to the apartment data.
You can send your Live Search directly to clients without having a website at all. If you already have a website, you can use the same tools there too.
The Live Search is already built. You do not have to hire a developer or build an apartment search from scratch.
