Real Estate Agent Website:
Must Have:
– Welcome Page
o Ideas that may be included in the welcome page (I am not set to any of these and am open to suggestions and creative freedom as long as it is approved by me)
Include a search section (mentioned in further detail later)
News-update update
A small information about me and my brokerage
– An information page about myself
– A page for properties that I have listings for (Need a database created so that I can easily add and remove properties from this portion.)
o This page would include a list of the houses with a basic description and would be able to click on them and have a much more in depth description.
o I very much like www.zillow.com and they way they set up searching for houses (although it would be on a much smaller scale since I will not have more than a dozen or so listings at a time)
Also like zillow.com I would like to include a mortgage calculator onto each house that will be able to have fields customizable but by default are set to the house (for example of this please visit www.zillow.com)
– A very customizable house search option that would search through the database of my listings and that includes but is not limited too:
o City
o Property Type
o Minimum Price
o Maximum Price
o Bedrooms
o Bathrooms
o Square Feet
– Other pages as need and specified by me on a later date
– Finally need a system that users can sign in with a user name (email) and password in order that they can: get on an email news-letter group, save properties into their favorites, etc.
Here are a few websites that provide some inspiration for what I am looking for (these are not personal Real Estate Agent websites and are just examples for the look and feel I would like to go for):
