Hello,

I’ve been browsing many of the templates for a while, but I don’t know if there’s anything capable of handling real estate listings easily. I don’t know what capabilities exactly I’m looking for, but the ultimate goal is to be able to upload real estate listings and render them well – both internally and from other sites (such as MLS).

I honestly don’t know if this is a “template” thing, or an add-on or perhaps this isn’t the right CMS for the job. I know there are several real-estate extensions for joomla, so I guess my question is, what template would be best at handling and rendering real estate?

Thanks,

Anna:D

Hi Anna
With work any T3 template can be a decent RE site, however what are you thinking of using to generate the realty stuff?

there are many commercial extensions available for Joomla to help, Look PM questbg, chris is doing a few real estate sites now and uses a simple extension if the needs are not enormous, he also sub contracts if that’s a better solution for you. Regardless he can give you advise
Cheers Shannon

Hi Anna

(Thanks Shannon!).

I think many templates can be ‘suitable’ for most RE sites, depending on what functionality is required (quick search, advanced search, featured properties, contact forms per property, etc.).

Here’s a site I’m just in the process of finishing, based on JA Kyanite:
http://www.maisonsdecharente.com

Another very simple RE site I built, based on JA Pyrite:
http://www.bulgariannorthwestproperties.com

Yet another RE site I built, this one based on JA Nickel:
http://www.accordiaproperties.com

All of these sites were done with ‘non-commercial’ RE components, therefore I had no additional expense over and above my membership here at JA.

Hope this helps.
Chris
