For immediate start.
This project is for an advanced real estate component for Joomla since existing components do not have the functionality I need as a website developer. I will be using these components myself as a developer as well as reselling them (Code must be legally suitable for resale.). As such, I am interested in an ongoing working relationship with the programmers(s) for future upgrades, etc.
I am open to any suggestions, advice, or recommendations you might have about how best to accomplish the results I need as listed below:
Primary Function:
- Listings Database
- Designed for Joomla 1.5
Basics (similar to Mosets Hot Properties):
- Standard listing fields (searchable) and photo abilities
- Disclaimer field for listings pages
- Photo thumbnails should display larger image without page refresh
- Listings directory (for browsing by region, city, or property type)
- 3 Listings module(s) (featured, latest, category)
- Listings advanced search plugin/module (property features, mls, zip, radius, school district)
- Search Engine Optimization
- Print, PDF, e-mail listing
- Javascript mortgage calculator module (info for current listing auto-inserted)
- Trulia, Propsmart, Edgeio compatible feeds (one agency/office ID# only)
For registered users:
- Searches can be saved for registered users
- Individual listings can be saved in commentable Favorites list for registered users
- Favorites list is not password restricted so it can be seen by others
- Favorites list includes a “show to others” button for e-mailing a link for that page
- RSS/e-mail subscription for latest (region, city, featured, searched) listings
- "Compare selected listings" feature for registered users
Data Import:
- Automatic MLS IDX data import component
Google maps integration:
- Individual listings to display Google map with marker
- Selectable overlays ability for above Google map (churches, schools, stores, park, transit, etc.)
- Local search overlays (Yahoo) for Google map
- Google "neighborhood" map of all listings
- Zoomed-out counties map (clickable to above)
To consider:
- Implement Joomla 1.5 AJAX features
