How to create a Property Pin on the Real Estate Map

The Real Estate Map provides an interactive property map with pins displaying the location of each property available. The user will initially see a pop up window that includes a photo of the property with seven (7) key pieces of information (photo, address, price, status, property type, beds, and baths). Users can then click on the property pin to get further details of that property.

If the Real Estate Map is implemented in conjunction with a bulk load of Real Estate Properties, the values for the x,y coordinates can be included in the spreadsheet that is provided to the Development Team. Otherwise, the Real Estate Properties within the Real Estate Module should be loaded as a prerequisite to the completion of the Real Estate Map.

  • Client shall supply property map
  • MembersFirst shall create markers over homesites
  • Only identified homesites will have markers created*
  • Map shall contain a pop up window that includes a photo of property with seven (7) key pieces of information (photo, address, price, status, property type, beds, and baths)
  • A click action shall bring a user to details on Real Estate Module

Note: If the client is unable to create property markers, any additions and/or changes you wish to be completed by MembersFirst would be an additional fee. Please contact your Client Services Manager, they would be happy to assist you.
