Q: How does the Realister integrate with my current website?

A: We provide seamless integration with your current website as part of the setup fee. To access the Realister, a button will be added to your website’s main navigation (i.e. “View Properties”).

Q: How do I update the property information in the Realister?

A: The Realister is equipped with an intuitive back-end manager, which will allow you to update all the property information, including pictures, sitemaps and demographic information, as well as manage the additional functionalities of the application. This manager area is accessed from any web-enabled computer through a password protected login area.

Q: How secure is the database in which all our information is stored?

A: From the Realister back-end manager area, you can download the complete database at your own command. This way you can back up all your accumulated information at your own pace, with no site downtime. You are in charge of your own content.

Q: How is the Realister different from other property listing portals on the market today?

A: Most of the popular online property listing tools on the market are based on manual processes that involves several tedious steps and limitations when you wish to update your data. The complexity that lays the ground for these applications contribute to higher cost (more man-hours required) both on the user side and the vendor side.

Many of the competing applications are also portal-based, which means that they are not seamlessly integrated with your own website. The Realister, on the other hand, puts you in complete control of managing the information you wish to post. It is completely integrated with your website, which increases your brand name recognition.

Additionally, the Realister features tools that let you provide targeted marketing directly toward the market that is looking for the properties you offer. Overall, the Realister adds more value to your company, cuts time spent on updating your listings, and lets you perform targeted (and much more effective) marketing for a low cost.

Q: How does the Realister save money for my commercial real estate company?

A: The Realister allows you to keep an updated listing of your available properties on your website at all times. Adding or editing property information can be done by anyone in your organization, and it is done quickly. Learning to use the application is easy. The result is far less time spent on making newly acquired properties available for your market to view on your own website.

Further, the Realister cuts cost spent on traditional marketing (i.e. printed material), as you now can utilize email to reach your prospects in a much more efficient manner.

Q: Can residential real estate companies also use the Realister?

A: The application was developed to fulfill the needs of the commercial real estate business. Residential real estate businesses have different needs, which are not supported by the Realister. However, i360 will consider offering a residential version at a later time.

Q: How long does it take to implement the Realister with my current site?

A: We can perform the implementation within 48 hours during the business week.
