After we upgraded the feeds yesterday, we got some very valuable feedback.  We really appreciate it and thank you.

The biggest issue we saw was that the new feeds made the Dashboard very busy, which pushed down your important announcements.  Also, not everyone cares about everything.

We added the ability for each agent to filter out the type of the feeds that you do not want to see.  You can also use it to toggle certain type of feeds on and off, to only show them when you care to see them.  Your filter options are also saved the next time you visit the Dashboard.

Let us know if you need anything else.  Thanks!

Did you notice that your Dashboard Account Feeds just changed?  We have upgraded the Dashboard Feeds to display more useful information to keep you updated with what’s happening in your company and landlords you have real time access to.

Here is a list of the major changes:

1.  Easily post a message in the feeds to tell your users something.  This is the place to give each other tips, keep your agents updated, and make your account look lively.  Post a short message and give it a try.

Click on the input field to enter your message

Type your message, and click on the Post button when finished

2. Listings, deals and photos notifications.  You’ll find that the feeds notify you of the activities in your company/account, when deals are added, photos are uploaded, and more importantly when listings come on and go off the market.

Listing Updates Notification Shows New/Pending/Rented Listings

We also added a couple of landlord features.  Don’t be surprised if you see listing sheets generated from YGL, and invitations sent through us.

As always we really appreciate your feedback, and are working hard to bring you more features and improvements.

Dear users, we will be taking the system down today at midnight for some necessary updates and system maintenance for 2 – 3 hours.  We apologize for any inconvenience.

Dear users, we added a new template based on your request for something that’s simple and clean, similar to Postlets.

We added a new convenience feature to automatically populate the address neighborhood field when it is not entered.  We did this through similar mechanics as the auto POI tagging.  We obtained the neighborhood border information through the follow websites:

Here is the map we constructed in Google Maps.  Please have a look if you are interested and give us some suggestions.  Thanks!
