Editor reviews
Major upgrades to the front-end enhance both the usability and aesthetics making this system easy to use with a modern feel. Minimal screen refreshes are required to search for property and there's good use of call to actions buttons. Very detailed reporting is available in the back-end for listing views by contact, top listing viewed and all sorts of other key property searching activity. It also appears that there is some html and css styling abilities available allowing for a more integrated look and feel with your website. Note: the reason for the lower rating on lead quality and quantity is simply due to not having any first hand knowledge on how their system has actually performed in this area.
The Broker Tools:
Ability to route leads to certain agents based on defined criteria appears to be available. The broker system also includes a page for each agent (or roster) which can be built out to include a quick search ability and to display each agents listings as well as the standard bio info.
Note: iHomefinder does offer some interesting options in terms getting listings indexed on your site (without the use of a custom subdomain). They can provide a .php file that can be modified to pull in your featured listings to be displayed as site content as opposed to an iframe. In most cases this will require help from an experienced webmaster. They also have a featured listings web service that can provide RSS like features and benefits. Though I haven't used any of these tools myself, it should be noted that they're available and worth checking out.
