DeedQuest is a real estate mashup that brings together – in one convenient place – analysis tools, property listings, real estate market data and networking features to help investors make faster, better investment decisions.

What were the site requirements?

A major challenge for us was presenting property listings, as well as market profiles. In both cases, we needed a way to create complex, structured content items that included data – such as state, zip code, etc. – that could in turn be used for search and filters. We also needed a way for users to submit their own property listing. While we have some user reviews for market profiles, reviews are a very minor part or our site.

Why was JReviews chosen?

We had tried all of the other, out-of-the-box real estate solutions including Hot Property and EZ Realty, but they were neither hot nor easy. None of the targeted solutions provided the richness of features or the flexibility we needed.

How is JReviews being used on the site?

JReviews allowed us to do everything we needed and more. Better yet we found that we could use a single product not just for our real estate listings, but also for our market profiles, and for our directory of real estate clubs, and for our directory of real estate books and conventions. We only had to learn one product to get a very rich site.

What are the key advantages of using JReviews for your website or business?

The templating of both modules and component views. The ability to create custom views – one for property listings, one for market profiles, one for real estate clubs, etc. – was what made it possible for us to a) use JReviews for just about everything in our site, and b) achieve a unified look, feel, and behavior across the site.
