What the heck is a client portal?
A client portal is a very cool link we can send you that gives you access to your own exclusive info on properties in our area that fit your search criteria when you are looking for a home.
For example, if you tell us you are looking for a three bedroom brick ranch in Lincoln, that it must have a two-stall garage, that there must be a basement, that the house must be a minimum of 1100 square feet in area and that you don’t want anything built before 1950, with a maximum price of $150,000…well, we put that all into a search of our local MLS (multi-listing service) and the results come up as a large list of available properties.
Once this search is saved under your name with your email address, the entire list is emailed to you, where you can look at photos of the houses, etc. When we activate the “client portal” you just click on the link to the portal, and all your properties show up one one page under “newly matched.”
As you go through the properties, you can check off the ones you don’t care for, and click to send them to the “rejected” tab. The ones you like, you can send to the “saved” tab. After that, whenever you check the portal, you can look at the “newly matched” tab and see if there are new properties that fit your criteria that have just come on the market.
You can post comments about the properties in a field on each listing’s page, and you can look at the room dimensions, photos, and even click on a link to the County Assessor’s page to see what the tax value is.
When you’re ready to take a look at some of the saved homes in your portal, just give us a call and we can schedule showings.
This is a free service we provide that takes just a few minutes to set up, but can save you hours and hours of searching through multiple websites. If it’s listed for sale in Lincoln and fits your criteria, it should be in your portal.
