Configurable property search comes to Flex

The Flex real estate platform is one of the most configurable website solutions on the market. Not only can estate agencies choose from multiple templates and customize the look and feel of the home page, but they can go the complete custom route, and customize any aspect of the website such as the search results or property details. All of this is done on a highly efficient and stable platform that is continuously optimized and follows best web practices, including responsive web design.

Flex can be powered on your own management system via our Sync interface, or you can use our industry leading Base CRM platform. For those looking to supercharge their SEO, our AirTable integration provides the ability to generate optimized content integrations throughout your website.

Build a configurable property search

Every business is unique and in some cases you would want to provide visitors with a unique and more personalised property search experience. If you are dealing with residential, commercial or agricultural properties, you know that buyers would want to use different search parameters. The same goes for short and long term rentals.

With Flex you can now configure your property search as follows:
  • Add or remove any fields in the search
  • Customise the property types and statuses available
  • Add complete custom search fields that you configure in Base

Want visitors to search based on whether they want flatlet or staff rooms, or make different price segments available? No problem:


Dealing in agricultural property and want visitors to search on farm types? Configure them in Base and enable it on your website as a dropdown option:



Dealing with commercial property? Limit your property types to commercial and provide an option to also search by building size:



You can also customise your website menu, and provide quick links to any of your search results or areas.

Send us a request with your search requirement for a quote. Small search changes can normally be done within an hour or two.

Easily link Base with external CRM systems

What is the Base Zapier integration? The Entegral Base system was recently improved with a native Zapier app integration . This allows estate agents to exchange data and create automated workflows with over 2000+ popular apps, including all the leading CRM specific apps.  Why even link a CRM system? Although Base has contact management, contact categories, automatic lead import, and other great CRM features , users sometimes require very specific CRM functions that we don't (yet) cater to. With our Zapier integration , we allow agents to link any popular app with Base. Once linked with your app, you can for instance automatically synchronise your contacts from Base to the external app or vice versa.  The added benefit is that you can create automated workflows and link more apps (e.g. insert contact details into a Mailchimp drip email campaign  and ZOHO CRM at the same time). This makes the Zapier fee irreverent compared to the derived benefits.  Automated portal l...

Property24 acquires Private Property, what do estate agents think?

Image
Property24.com, South Africa’s largest property portal owned by Naspers, has bought rival Private Property . The deal is likely to come under the close scrutiny of competition authorities as it involves the two biggest property portals in the country. Due to the impact of such an acquisition on the industry, Entegral was interested to find out what the perceived advantages and disadvantages of such a deal would be, both through the eyes of the consumer and the estate agent.   Here are the results from around 250 responses received on a survey done over a 2 day period , mostly from agents and agency owners. While the survey presents a small portion of the market (a ccording to the EAAB's latest annual report there are 19,424 registered agents and agency owners, excluding intern estate agents, in South Africa) , f eedback has been received from well-respected agency owners and agents, and we believe this gives a good indication of the current view of agents. The fear from estate ...
