There are now enough clients offering property owners and vendors the ability to login to Zoo Property and to add and update their property listings. These clients include private selling websites and agent assisted or owner assisted real estate sales websites who offer a service which involves the property owners.
We have modified the system and created an extra Level (Level 4) for property vendors. Vendors can login to the system and update their listing. In the developer’s system you can set whether or not the listing saves as a draft each time it is added/updated by a vendor. This allows the agent to monitor what updates vendors have made and approve these updates before they filter out to 3rd party websites and real estate portals.
You can opt for this additional functionailty when you are setting up the office in the Developer’s System. Note: There are additional charges for this service.

By popular request we have added a feature in the team member section of Zoo Property which allows agents to upload their vCard’s (wikipedia) to the system. These vCard’s are then displayed in the team member xml (in the API) so developers can populate this information on the offices website.
We also added a dropdown in the team members section which allows each team member to be assigned to a specific group eg Property Manger, Executive etc. A few developers were saying it would be ideal if we could group agents allowing them to display agents in groups on the office website.
vCard is a file format standard for electronic business cards. vCards are often attached to e-mail messages, but can be exchanged in other ways, such as on the World Wide Web. They can contain name and address information, phone numbers, e-mail addresses , URLs, logos, photographs, and even audio clips. (Source Wikipedia)

Previously you could manually export a listing from your Dashbaord to your own Facebook or Twitter account. We have extended this technology to allow an office in Zoo Property to automatically have any new property listings exported to the office Twitter and Facebook account.
There is minor configuration configured to set this up for Facebook but there is an outline on how to do this in the Exports section of the Developer’s system.

Zoo Property is now exporting listings to the largest Industry owned real estate portal in Australia…..Realestateview.com.au
REV are quite a good portal if your real estate agency is based in Victoria Australia. They have a subscription based model so it is not free to list but they are expanding into other states so there may be no cost to list your property for their new expansions.
