Everything you need to know before developing a real estate mobile app

Are you thinking about developing a real estate app, particularly a real estate mobile app? Are you still unsure whether developing a mobile real estate app is worthwhile? What should you keep in mind if you want to succeed with your real estate app?

As experienced real estate app developers, we can answer some of your questions, dispel some of your doubts, and share a few pointers to help you improve the chances of your real estate application development.

Why does your real estate company require a mobile app?

A mobile app is an absolute must for a real estate business, and it is becoming increasingly so.

This is due, first and foremost, to the nature of this business. Real estate agents frequently act on the spur of the moment. To close a good deal, they and their clients must frequently be quick to respond to events.

And, in second place, 48% of all searches for services in the real estate and property sector were initiated on mobile devices in 2015. (SmartInsights). The percentage has only increased since then.

As a result, you should never consider a mobile app to be an add-on or a welcome but expensive addition to the rest of your business tools and facilities. In all likelihood, mobile will soon overtake your brick-and-mortar and Web-enabled businesses. It will become your primary source of income as well as your primary means of communication with your clients and business partners.

Features of a real estate mobile app

To begin developing software in your chosen app niche, you must first understand and be able to apply the fundamental principles. So, let’s begin with the simple part:

Customer panel

Sign up and sign in. Not only is registration important; but new users should also be verified, ideally both online and offline (e.g., a government-issued ID, the last four of your SSN or national ID number), to build trust.
View housing listings on a map. An interactive map visualizes all of the necessary information for users to find what they are looking for in the most convenient and informative manner. When combined with the Map APIs, an application can provide its users with additional information about local public transportation, schools, entertainment, and more.
Search for a home. An app displays currently available properties to customers based on some basic parameters such as location or property type.
Filtering by property feature. Even if you select the most basic parameters, you are likely to be left with a lengthy list. A more detailed search, such as filtering by price, amenities, and facilities, may be beneficial.
Notifications via push
The property’s history, photos, videos, 360 virtual tours, and full details are all available.
For more information or to schedule an appointment, please contact the broker.
Submission of a property for sale, rent, or lease.

Admin panel
