Question 1

Can you build a real estate portal with advanced search?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we build high-performance property portals on Next.js 16 with Elasticsearch for advanced multi-filter search, interactive MapLibre GL maps, AI-assisted valuations, and an integrated CRM for agents. The architecture scales to hundreds of thousands of listings without performance degradation. Each portal includes server-side rendering for SEO, JSON-LD RealEstateListing structured data for Google rich results, and sub-second page loads that keep buyers engaged throughout their search journey.

Question 2

Do you support integration with external listing feeds?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we integrate with major Croatian real estate market APIs and international listing platforms through custom RSS, XML, and RETS feed integrations for automatic, real-time property import. Synchronisation runs continuously via n8n workflows, so new listings appear on your portal within minutes of publication at the source. We also handle data normalisation, standardising property types, room counts, area measurements, and image formats across feed providers into a consistent schema.

Question 3

Can your CRM track the full property sales cycle?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we build custom real estate CRMs that track the complete sales lifecycle: enquiry, lead qualification, viewing scheduling, negotiation, offer management, contract signing, and deal closure. All documents, communications, and status updates are centralised per property and per agent. Buyer intent scoring prioritises the most engaged leads automatically, and automated follow-up sequences ensure no prospect goes cold during the typically long real estate decision cycle.

Question 4

Do you support 3D visualisations and virtual tours?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we integrate Matterport, 3D Showcase, and custom WebGL visualisations directly into property portal listings. Virtual tours keep buyers on the listing longer and reduce physical viewings with unqualified buyers, saving your agents substantial time. For new developments, we embed interactive floor plans with unit selection, sunlight exposure simulations, and view renderings that help international buyers make purchase decisions before visiting in person.

Question 5

Will our own portal bring more enquiries than the listing sites?

Accepted Answer

Not immediately and not on its own. Listing sites have traffic your own site does not have at the start, so they remain a source of new buyers. Your own site gains weight over time, because it builds search positions on neighbourhood names and property types, and because a buyer who already knows you comes direct. The realistic view is a long-term asset that reduces dependence on the listing sites, not a replacement that works from month one.

Question 6

How do we stop fake enquiries and automated form submissions?

Accepted Answer

With a check that does not annoy the buyer plus rules on the server side. An invisible check catches most automated senders without puzzles that drive real people away, and a cap on messages from one address stops repetition. On top of that the content is validated: an enquiry with no phone number and several links is almost never a buyer. None of these is complete on its own, so enquiries are sorted and suspicious ones go to a separate inbox rather than being deleted.

Question 7

Can we publish a property once and send it to several portals?

Accepted Answer

Yes, provided the target portals offer an interface for receiving listings, and most larger ones do. The property is entered on your site as the source of truth and then pushed to the portals, including price changes and sold status. That solves the most common agency problem: a property sold three weeks ago still live on one portal. Before estimating we check which portals you use, because terms and access differ from one to the next.

Question 8

How is GDPR handled when we collect prospective buyers' details?

Accepted Answer

By deciding up front why each field is collected and how long it is kept. For an enquiry the legal basis is taking steps before a contract, so consent is not required to reply, but it is required for sending offers and news later, and those two must be separate rather than one tickbox covering both. Data is kept with a retention period rather than forever, and only those who need it have access. If details go to a CRM or an email tool, a data processing agreement with that provider has to exist.

Question 9

How do we show prices that change often?

Accepted Answer

The price lives in one place and is pulled from there everywhere: the listing page, the property page, the export to portals and the documents. That removes the most common buyer complaint, a price that differs depending on where they saw it. If you work with ranges or price on request, that is modelled as a state of the property rather than an empty field, because a buyer reads an empty field as a fault.

Question 10

Do we need our own app for agents in the field?

Accepted Answer

Rarely. An agent in the field needs to reach a detail quickly, take photos and record what was agreed, and a mobile-ready site covers that with no install and no update to push to every device. An app earns its place when work is genuinely needed offline where there is no signal, or when it needs device features a browser does not expose. Those are concrete reasons, not the assumption that field work means an app.

Question 11

Can we see where every enquiry came from?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and it is usually the first thing that changes advertising decisions. Every enquiry records its source, so you can see whether the buyer arrived from search, a listing site, social or directly. Connected to the outcome, that shows which channel produces enquiries that actually reach a viewing, rather than simply the largest number of enquiries. The measurement is set up with visitor notice and with consent where required, because tracking without that is not an option in the EU.

Question 12

We have around twenty properties. Does building a portal make sense?

Accepted Answer

For display alone probably not; for how you work, possibly. With twenty properties a simple site with good photos and clear contact details covers the selling, and the difference is not made by feature count. The investment starts making sense when your time goes into retyping the same details across several portals, into working out which stage each buyer is at, or when every offer is written from scratch. At that point you are not buying a portal, you are removing repetition, and that is measurable.
