Vendor Assisted Websites

More and more real estate agencies are expanding their offering and allowing vendors to perform certain aspects of the sale of property. To successfully perform this service you need a specialist web solution which allows vendors to access the normal online systems your agency uses while enabling you full control over what they update. At Agentpoint we have a range of solutions which are currently used by the leading agent assisted, owner assisted and private selling real estate websites in Australia.

Raine & Horne Newcastle and Stockton were looking for a real estate web solution for a new domain they had. Their preference for a real estate web developer, was a company who could deliver a professional yet cost effective website. They chose to purchase one of our real estate WordPress themes and within 1 week we were able to launch their new WordPress website.

Di Jones Real Estate are a real estate agency who specialise in selling and leasing real estate in Paddington and Wollahra in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney.

Your Home Away From Home

Your home away from home is a new site launched by Di Jones Real Estate and is designed to lease short term accommodation in the Eastern suburbs of Sydney. The site largely models the new Di Jones real estate website but has be branded with the Your Home Away From Home logo.

The client uses Sherlock Software system SecureBookIt to mange the property data on the website. So we were required to build a WordPress plugin which syncs with Secure Bookit and Sherlock Software systems pulling live information in relation to the availability and pricing. If you’re after a website which can handle online bookings for holiday accommodation then we recommend using the Sherlock system.

Nerang First National are the leading real estate agents in Nerang and surrounding areas on the Gold Coast. They needed a conventional website allowing them to sit at the top of search results in the suburbs they operate in.

iPad Real Estate Website

An Australian industry first, Agentpoint have created the first iPad specific website which is built and optimised for Apple’s iPad. The real estate website renders perfectly in the iPad making use of the iPad’s touch screen functionality.

We’ve built the iPad website using WordPress Multi User WPMU, meaning we can easily replicate the site for any real estate office or agent. We place some code on your normal agency website which will detect whether the browser is using an iPad, if they are we will then direct them to the iPad site. All iPad sites provide the user with the option to switch back to the classic view site. To read more about our real estate iPad sites or purchase one check out our products section.

Real Estate Virtual Floor Plans

We’ve created a floor plans WordPress real estate plugin which allows you to pinpoint images to a floorplan. When a user clicks on the marker on the floorplan an image will popup in a lightbox. Basically, your static floorplan becomes an interactive virtual tour for the home. It is quite useful as users can assign images to locations in the property while browsing the floorplan.

At the moment we are only using it in our individual property websites but we plan to deploy it to our main stream agency websites shortly in the future. You can check out an example at 23 Prince Albert.

Individual Property Website

We’ve just completed another individual property real estate website WordPress theme. This property website was for a property at 23 Prince Albert Street Mosman and you can read more about it in our products section.

This individual property website uses the latest in WordPress technology including our new interactive floor plan WordPress plugin. This allows browsers to view images of the property by clicking on markers over the floorplans. These sites can be purchased for $450 + tax and are a great way for your agency to stand out above your competitors.
