In the fast-paced world of real estate, efficiency is key. Whether you’re managing a bustling agency or working as an independent agent, your tools need to not only keep up but also enhance your productivity. At iDashboard, we understand the demands of the real estate industry, which is why we’ve developed tools that make your life easier. One such tool is the Property Preview Links feature—an amazing feature for real estate professionals looking to streamline the listing approval process.
What Are Property Preview Links?
Property Preview Links in iDashboard allow you to generate a unique, shareable link for any unpublished property listing. This link can be sent to vendors or landlords, giving them the opportunity to preview their property’s listing in a format that mirrors how it will appear online once published. This feature is particularly valuable for ensuring client satisfaction and getting their final approval before making a listing public.
Imagine being able to bypass the traditional methods of listing approval—no more publishing properties to your website just to get a thumbs-up, and no more scheduling in-person meetings or calls to review listings with your clients. With Property Preview Links, you can simply generate a link, send it via email, and let your client review the listing at their convenience.
How It Works
Using Property Preview Links is incredibly straightforward:
- Generate the Link: When you’re working on a property listing that is still unpublished, you can easily generate a preview link directly from iDashboard. This link is unique to each listing and provides a live preview of how the property will look once it’s published.
- Share with Clients: Copy the link and share it with your vendor or landlord via email. They can click the link to view the listing, giving them a complete preview of the property details, images, and description.
- Real-Time Updates: One of the best aspects of Property Preview Links is that they update in real-time. If you make any changes to the listing in iDashboard after generating the preview link, your client will see the updated version simply by refreshing their browser. There’s no need to re-generate or resend the link.
- Seamless Transition to Published Listings: Once your client has approved the listing, and you’re ready to go live, you can publish the property with just a click. If the client tries to access the preview link after publication, they’ll be redirected to the live listing on your website, ensuring a seamless experience.
Benefits of Using Property Preview Links
1. Enhanced Client Communication: Property Preview Links simplify the communication process between you and your clients. By providing a clear, visual preview of the listing, you ensure that clients are fully informed and satisfied before the property goes live.
2. Save Time and Increase Efficiency: Time is money in real estate, and the ability to streamline the listing process is invaluable. Property Preview Links eliminate the need for redundant steps, such as publishing listings solely for client review, saving you time and reducing the chances of errors.
3. Improve Client Satisfaction: Clients appreciate transparency and involvement in the listing process. By allowing them to review and approve their property listings, you foster trust and improve overall client satisfaction.
4. Real-Time Feedback: Because the links update in real-time, any changes you make to the listing are immediately reflected in the preview. This feature ensures that clients are always looking at the most current version of their property, making it easier to address any concerns or make last-minute adjustments.
5. Easy to Use: Property Preview Links are designed with ease of use in mind. Whether you’re a tech-savvy agent or someone who prefers straightforward tools, generating and sharing preview links is simple and quick.
Who Can Use Property Preview Links?
This feature is available to all iDashboard users who directly manage their listings within the platform, and who have a iDashSites or iProperty hosted website. If you use iDashboard to add, edit, and oversee property listings and have a website provided by us, you can take full advantage of Property Preview Links.
To start using this feature, simply log in to iDashboard, navigate to your unpublished listings, and click on the preview link button from the publishing menu. From there, it’s just a matter of copying the link and sharing it with your client.
In a competitive market, providing exceptional service and maintaining efficiency are crucial for success. iDashboard’s Property Preview Links offer a powerful way to enhance your real estate software toolkit, ensuring that your clients are always in the loop and satisfied with their listings. By integrating this feature into your workflow, you can simplify the listing process, improve client relations, and ultimately close deals faster.
