House buying platform & app development for realtors case study - making real estate agency negotiations easy
Project intro
French Real Estate Association’s Mobile App for Realtors provides a powerful proptech tool for agents. It streamlines collaboration between professionals in the real estate industry. The company felt they were hindered from taking advantage of potential real estate deals. The app addresses a lack of transparency and communication between members of the real estate establishment.
The association identified a need to develop a mobile app for realtors that provided real-time information regarding the properties available for purchase or rental. Softermii, with experience in app development for real estate agents, delivered a mobile tool that addressed the specific needs of the French real estate market. Realtors and agents using this app enjoy a distinct advantage over their competitors who are not using the solution.

About the project
French Real Estate Association is an enterprise with headquarters in Paris. The organization is an association that welcomes all real estate agents and attempts to improve their ability to serve potential customers.
The company approached our company to make an app for real estate agents that would facilitate finalizing deals with potential customers. The real estate agent application needed to provide timely information to professionals and customers in the field. The project’s goal was to eliminate issues that negatively impacted the ability to finalize deals. Development began in May, 2019 and is ongoing.

Realtors App Development Challenges and Project Goals
Several challenges were identified as issues that severely limited the ability of real estate professionals to close deals with prospective clients.
-
01
Real-time
The main problem was the lack of real-time information available to real estate professionals concerning the state of the market. There was no collaborative tool with which to coordinate the actions of agents in the field, leading to confusion and degraded productivity.
-
02
Information
The lack of information resulted in wasted time spent trying to determine if properties were still available or had already been taken off the market. Productive time was lost by agents discussing unavailable properties with their customers when they could have been concentrating on opportunities that still existed.
-
03
Solution
In addition to costing agents precious time, the inability to quickly respond to client queries resulted in reduced customer satisfaction. We provided a mobile solution bringing the necessary information together to resolve the bottlenecks in the French real estate industry.
Our solution for Real Estate Agents
The team at Softermii already had experience in app development for real estate agents. It was logical to choose them to develop a solution for French Real Estate Association. The final product is a mobile app for iOS that streamlines the interaction between agents and their clients, increasing the number of successful transactions and customer satisfaction.

Key deliverables
Here are the main features delivered in our solution
Visibility
Users get real-time visibility into their market sector and can perform geolocated and filtered searches to identify properties that meet customer requirements. The ability to see updated information regarding available properties gives users a competitive edge over agents not using the tool.
Descriptive information
Searches return property profiles that include details like the price, full-color photographs, and other details prioritized by the owner or realtor. Visit reports enable agents to determine how much attention a property is receiving, allowing them to make better decisions when offering it for sale. All information contained in property profiles is stored securely.
Comparison
Real-time comparisons between similar properties enable agents to furnish potential customers with options and demonstrate the financial advantages of their offering.
Collaboration
Collaboration between agents and agencies is fostered by the app by the potential to share real-time updates on inventory and avoid contention over prospective customers.
Time savings
Both customers and real estate professionals benefit from the reduced time spent locating the right property and closing the deal. This greatly increases customer satisfaction and enables more deals to be completed, boosting agents’ bottom line.
Custom zones
Agents can define custom zones simply by drawing its outline on a map on their mobile device. Using this feature enables agents to fine-tune property searches to address specific client requirements.
Notifications
Notifications can be sent to agents regarding the status of properties which interest them or their clients. This saves time that would be spent researching property availability and enables agents to better serve the needs of their customers.
Development
Future development of the solution can be performed by fine-tuning the collection and processing of real estate related data. Softermii has ensured that all personal data is securely managed to comply with privacy regulations. Agents in the field are the target audience for the app. As the tool matures, new features can be introduced to provide innovative ways to further enhance the flow of real estate information.
