Many letting agents these days are using in-house letting agent solutions to help manage their business operations, landlords and tenants while at the same time uploading properties into many different property listings directories including Find a Property, Fish4Homes, Homeflow , Homes Alone, Lettingsearch, London2Let, Look4aProperty, Move with us, Mayfair Office, Mouseprice, Nethouseprices, Primelocation, Property Junction, PropertyIndex, PropertyLive, Rentin Online, Rentright, Rightmove, Rovster, Southern Property Finder and Zoopla. This automated management through the letting agent solutions requires financial and knowledge investment that in return saves the agent time and money.

A growing consideration is the ability to include automatic listing of properties from in-house letting agent solutions onto the estate and letting agents company websites. This supports the agents investment into raising the awareness of their brand through marketing such as advertising that then leads to property searches and enquiries based on the agents company name. The property listing on the agents own company website also has the benefit of re-enforcing the brand through brand coloured and styled property listing pages as well as include additional functional benefit for the customer such as map locations and galleries.
How you integrated your in-house letting agennt solutions with your website is really up to you and will depend on budget and the software you select for in-house operations. With some many ways to feed property data into websites such as XML online repositories or iFramed list results.

Data feeds support by page iFrames list results provide an out-of the-box service which allows websites to display properties without the heavy requirements of coding search forms and results pages that are quick to deploy and robust.
