WP Realty

<p>Jared Ritchey Design Presents, WP Featured for WordPress Real Estate Blogging at its best. Developed originally for our client use only, we have released this tool as a contribution to the WordPress community in support of the Worlds best Real Estate website platform, WordPress. This plugin provides blog website owners with a truly easy to manage easy to integrate way for featuring property listings in their posts and pages.  Ideal for the Real Estate, Automotive, Furniture, or any gallery type product related site, this plugin makes featuring products a breeze.</p>
<p>Tested with version 2.7.1 and WordPress MU, the plugin can support hundreds of featured listings and can be displayed or presented based entirely on user defined criteria providing the criteria is searchable. Even though this plugin was most beneficial in the hands of developers and web designers we have added the first version of a templated system to allow a relatively novice user the ability to customize the look and feel of the charted layouts. This does not mean that we have stopped supporting developers.  This plug-in does require OpenRealty 2.5.6 or above.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>For Theme Developers, please visit jaredritchey.com for details on how to distribute this plugin with your WordPress themes FREELY and Without Additional License Requirements. We can provide you easy to include PHP code to make your distribution of the plugin exceptionally easy.</p>

<h3>What Kind Styling Can I Really Do</h3>

<li>The fact is this, we built this for our clients originally and design was first on our mind. Every element is rendered based on the template you create, in our demo we use div tags for wrapping them so styling has a great many potential avenues.</li>
<li>Styling can be customized to be animated but I have not yet included that code.</li>
</ul>

<h4>What we do</h4>
<p>Rets Rabbit is a cloud service you can use to build real estate listings to brokerage, agent, or client websites and mobile apps.</p>
<p>Rets Rabbit takes the frustration and hassle of importing thousands of real estate listings and photos and gives you an easy to use service so you can focus on building your IDX-powered website or app. Developers using Rets Rabbit have saved 100s of hours of time building their own real estate import systems.</p>
<h4>Who Is Rets Rabbit For?</h4>
<h4>Designers & Developers:</h4>
<p>With the fragmented and confusing state of real estate technology, all too often creative professionals (designers & developers) have to compromise their creative and technical vision because the board has chosen an MLS vendor with woefully outdated and inflexible tools.</p>
<p>Often this leads you to build projects that lack <strong>SEO</strong>, lack <strong>responsive or mobile friendly design</strong>, lack UI/UX features that can make the <strong>home searching experience easier</strong>. At the end of the project instead of proud of your work, you’re left with a nagging feeling that you could have done more for your client.</p>
<p>With Rets Rabbit you can build websites and mobile apps that <strong>don’t sacrifice your creative or technical vision</strong>. We use a technology called RETS to connect to local real estate MLS’s and import listings and photos to our servers. We then give you an array of easy to use tools depending on your type of development to incorporate the listings into your website or mobile app and give you the power to build solutions your real estate clients will love!</p>
<h4>Brokers & Agents:</h4>
<p>Nearly <strong>40% of buyers are searching for homes on mobile devices. Google has seen a **256% growth in real estate searches</strong> in the past four years. Yet all too often MLS searches on agent and brokerage websites are either:</p>
<ul>
<li>not optimized for mobile devices</li>
<li>sending users out to another site where Google and other search engines don’t track</li>
<li>showing search results in an “iframe” widget, which is not optimized for both mobile or search engine traffic</li>
<li>So how many leads are you missing because your MLS search isn’t optimized for mobile or search engine traffic?</li>
</ul>
<p>You don’t have to sacrifice the latest trends in buyer behavior because your third-party MLS vendor’s search can’t keep up the latest technology.</p>
<p>With Rets Rabbit your buyers will get <strong>accurate listings from your MLS</strong> that will allow you to keep up with the national real estate sites.</p>
