See an overview of features below:

Website

Feeding to your website

As part of AgentsInsight, we offer two options to enhance the property search section of your website:

Option 1: XML Feed for Your Website.

We can provide your website developers with an XML feed, enabling seamless integration of property listings into your website. By clicking a single button, the property details will be published directly on your website feed. This eliminates the need to enter property information multiple times

Additionally, any enquiries received through your website will be automatically directed to the requirement section of your account.

Option 2: Custom Property Search Page.

Alternatively, we can build a property search page that seamlessly fits into your website. This option offers the added benefit of sending any inquiries received through the search page directly to the requirement section of your account. Similar to Option 1, you only need to enter the property details into AgentsInsight once, and the listings will be circulated to the society and published on your website.

By choosing either of these options, you can save time and effort by streamlining the process of listing properties and managing inquiries.

Property Hive

What is it?

Property Hive is a company that provide a WordPress plugin that creates a custom property search on your WordPress website (if you use WordPress)
​

Is it quick to implement?

Yes, they take our XML feed so setting up a property search couldn't be much quicker
​

Why use Property Hive?

If you're not in a position for AgentsInsight to build your website / property search, but equally won't have a website developer building out a whole new property search page, Property Hive can provide a good middle-ground as the plugin helps simplify the development work needed to implement our XML feed (i.e. the developer isn't building the site from ground up) which saves considerable time and money all round.
​

What are the cost implications?

You'll pay Property Hive for the plugin, which is a one off fee of £149

Portals

Feeding to property portals

  1. Which property portals are you currently using to display your listings?

  2. How do you currently publish your listings to these portals? Do you manually enter/update each one individually?

  3. How many listings do you currently have?

Once you provide us with this information, we will reach out to the respective portals on your behalf and assist you with setting up the feeds.

Alternatively, if you would like to feed to a portal not listed above, then let us know and we will reach out to the portal to see if they can accept a feed.

PDF's

Can we access auto generated agency PDF's?

With AgentsInsight, you have the ability to access auto-generated agency PDFs. By setting up a template in your AgentsInsight account, you can automate the process of generating agency particulars for your listings. The particulars are created based on the information you enter into the system for each listing. The more details you provide, the higher quality your particulars will be. This feature saves you time and effort by generating professional-looking agency particulars with just a few clicks.

Brochure Vs PDF

The PDF is a feature in AgentsInsight that allows for automated brochures to be generated based on the information you have entered into the system. These brochures are dynamic and always up-to-date, reflecting any changes made to the property's details, such as rented floors or adjusted rent prices. The link to the brochure is automatically updated wherever it appears, ensuring that the latest information is accessible.

On the other hand, a Brochure is intended for static marketing brochures that may have been created by a creative agency specifically for your property. These brochures are typically customised and not automatically updated based on changes in the system. These can be uploaded and stored in the disposals 'Media' tab.

PDF margins / printing

The reason behind the printing of the PDF particulars may vary depending on individual needs and preferences. Some users may find it useful to have physical copies of the brochures for distribution or for offline reference. However, the PDFs are designed to be viewed online with an edge-to-edge layout, which may result in white margins when printed using standard printers.

PDF quote

As part of your package, we provide standard PDF template designs that you can use for your property brochures. These templates are included at no additional cost and are a great starting point for creating professional-looking materials.

However, if you're looking for something more customised or unique to your brand, we offer premium and bespoke PDF options. With premium PDFs, you can choose from a selection of enhanced designs and additional features. For a fully tailored solution, our bespoke PDF service allows you to submit your own design and specifications.

To explore the premium or bespoke options, please click here.

If you're interested in the custom options, simply send your design and requirements to support@tlgd.co.uk, and our team will review your request and provide you with a more specific cost for your build.

Content flow breakpoint

We understand that you may want more control over the content distribution between the left and right columns on the second page of your PDF. That's why we have introduced the "content flow breakpoint" feature, which offers greater flexibility in determining how much content appears in each column.

To adjust the content distribution, you'll find two buttons: "Less content" and "More content." By clicking these buttons, you can control the amount of content displayed in the left-hand column of the second page.

The number displayed between the "more" and "less" buttons represents the percentage of total content that will appear in the left-hand column. This ensures that the content is evenly distributed and avoids any instances of a single line or word appearing on its own. In such cases, the entire section is moved to the other column to maintain a cohesive layout.

This feature allows you to fine-tune the content flow and achieve the desired balance between the left and right columns on the second page of your brochure. If you have any further questions or need assistance with this feature, please don't hesitate to let us know.
