Gather more property leads with CASAFARI: get to know Alerts

In order to establish criteria, iBuyers get to choose from more than 30 filters, including:

  • an asking price range,
  • the conditions of the property (used, to refurbish, very good or new),
  • the type of property (studios, penthouses, a regular house, a villa, etc.),
  • characteristics (such as balcony, parking, lift, terrace, etc.).

With CASAFARI Alerts you get to know all about the market in real time and act instantly.

Property Valuation: finding the right prices for your property transactions

CASAFARI’s Property Valuation takes one property as a basis to find a list of other comparable properties, with similar characteristics and located in the same area. And, taking this list into consideration, our property valuation tool suggests selling, fair market and out-of-market prices.

This data can also be used to negotiate the value of the property transaction with the seller, to ensure that the property is sold for a fair price, that allows a safe profit margin for the iBuyer.

How to make a property valuation with CASAFARI

Along with the suggestions and list of competitors, you can also find in our property valuation report other data about your chosen investment, such as:

  • how long a property such as this usually spends on the property market,
  • how many other properties in this asset class are available for sale,
  • upward or downward price trends for this asset class,
  • the asking prices for the comparables.

How CASAFARI’s market analysis helps estate agents sell more and faster

All this information is useful for understanding your pricing strategy to seal the deal and can be obtained in just a few minutes. Your decision-making doesn’t get any faster than this.

CASAFARI APIs: Property Sourcing and Comparables on your current system

If an iBuyer does not wish to change the real estate software they currently use, that’s no problem! They can still make use of valuable data to speed up their tasks inside their own platform through CASAFARI Property Data APIs.

Here are the best APIs for iBuyers and which data they provide.

Comparables

Very similar to our Property Valuation, according to the Comparables API documentation, this API allows you to, without the need to open CASAFARI,

  • get a property valuation for a property that the iBuyer is interested in,
  • check for how much its comparable properties are being sold.

In just a few minutes, you will be able to decide how much you should offer for an opportunity in order to increase your chances of buying while still granting a desirable profit margin.

Properties

With the Property Sourcing API, iBuyers get access to all unique properties available on the market straight into their system. They are able to apply more than 30 filters to find the perfect opportunity and make an offer knowing that the property transaction is profitable.

Whether the iBuyers choose to see our data inside CASAFARI or on their own platform, this combo of products ensures a gain of speed in all their tasks, from finding the right property to acquiring it for the ideal price. Waste no time: boost your business with our real estate software!
