Are you a realtor looking to enhance your Squarespace website with customizable home search and lead management solutions? Look no further! The IDX Broker plugin for Squarespace is here to help.
Features
IDX Widgets
With the IDX Broker plugin, you can easily add IDX to your Squarespace pages using the included widgets. These widgets, built with JavaScript, provide a seamless integration into your website. Please note that Squarespace Business or Commerce accounts are required for this feature.
Home Atlas
One of the standout features is the Home Atlas. This interactive map gives realtors a competitive edge in their local market by providing advanced search capabilities. Visitors to your site can move and zoom in on the map, view specific areas by clicking on map pins, and even highlight properties. With just one click, they can access a "portal-style" listing of search results. The Home Atlas feature is available on the Platinum plan.
Polygon Search Tool
The Polygon Search Tool allows visitors to filter their map search to listings within a specific region. They can move, zoom in, and draw on the map to view any desired area. With this tool, users can create their own polygons and radius searches based on specific communities, landmarks, school districts, and more. When used in conjunction with Home Atlas, all polygon and radius data can be drawn and displayed together with an interactive map.
Advanced Search
Realtors will appreciate the Advanced Search feature, which provides all the search options they need. They can display all searchable fields available in the MLS and even customize searches by choosing which search criteria to make available to site visitors.
Mortgage Calculator
Another useful feature is the Mortgage Calculator. It helps users estimate their mortgage terms for a property they are interested in. Taking into account factors such as the price of a home, interest rates, and the mortgage term, this tool provides valuable insights to potential buyers. To add the Mortgage Calculator to your site, simply embed the widget on any property detail page.
Plans and Pricing
IDX Broker offers two pricing plans for its IDX/MLS integration service. The Lite plan costs $55 per month and includes all standard IDX features. Additionally, it offers essential plug-and-play widgets, customizable map search, advanced lead capture settings, and insight with My Listings Manager.
On the other hand, the Platinum plan, priced at $90 per month, includes all the features of the Lite plan plus Home Atlas and Polygon map search, advanced lead capture settings with social logins, AI-driven features, market reports, and sold data.
