Capital Property Advisory is Australia’s leading independent residential property advisory firm. They came to Agentpoint requiring a website which could showcase their skills and experience in this area. Although we were not responsible for the design we did transform the psd design into a wordpress website.

We built a small wordpress plugin which popups when users first land on the homepage and prompts them to subscribe to the latest property advisory news. The plugin is working well and is allow Capital Property Advisory to build their database.

The client had recently upgraded their website but now required a blog to take advantage of Web 2.0 and in particular Social Networking.

We built a blog and attached it to the Market News section of their existing website making sure it is identical to the original site. Users can jump between sites and have know idea they are ever leaving the original real estate website.

The blog synchronises with Twitter creating tweets for every post created and utlisizes the other search engine friendly WordPress features including tags, categories and meta tag creation.

We have just completed a dynamic web application called Mohbe which allows any real estate agent in the World to have a dedicated mobile phone website for each of their property listings. The mobile phone website is viewable through any mobile phone which has an internet browser and access to the internet. We spent considerable time making sure we optimised the mobile phone website to the thousands of different handsets on the market.

What makes this product completely unique are the options available to a property seeker to get the property url into their mobile phone. Mohbe users the latest in barcode technology by allocating a QR Code to each property. A property seeker will scan this QR Code using their mobile phone camera which will then automatically load the mobile property page in the phone’s browser. For those users who do not have a camera phone, they can quickly enter the Mohbe tiny property url into their browser eg Mohbe.com/3467.

Agents have the option to upload their listings manually through the Mohbe interface or they can automatically send property data feeds via xml through to the Mohbe xml parser.

Agentpoint successfully integrated xml, with a wordpress platform which allows for complete account management and secure payments through PayPal while developing a mobile phone website which are compatible with the large number of different phones on the market.

Rentmy Carpark was an enjoyable project and uses a number of WordPress plug-ins. The basis of the website is to allow carpark owners located across Australia to rent their carparks to the public. Rentmy Carpark demonstrates the usefulness of WordPress as a SEO friendly CMS: each new carpark added creates a new WordPress post.

We mashed carpark results into Google maps and through a combination of AJAX and JavaScript users can view full results, comments and enquiry forms from the one page.

There is a fully developed administration area for carpark owners to add and manage their carpark listings. This area allows owners to screen and reply to comments, view analytics for their ads, amend ads and pay for their ads using PayPal through an e-commerce plug-in we developed.
