When the Homebot Home Search power-up is connected, you'll have access to a new personalized URL (or PURL) that you can share with prospects to help capture active buyers to expand your client database.

Already have the Customer Listings power-up connected?

You're only allowed to have one home search power-up enabled at a time to ensure your clients have a consistent search experience. Simply disconnect Customer Listings and connect the Homebot Home Search power-up.

Is Home Search automatically turned on if I have a co-sponsorship? What if I want to turn it off?

Yes, Home Search is automatically enabled for all real estate agents with a co-sponsored loan officer. However, you can disable the feature. Simply navigate to the "Customize" tab, click the “Home Search” power up, then click “Disconnect.” This will automatically remove Home Search for your clients.

There are many ways in which agents are highlighted in the Home Search experience, with ample opportunities built in to start conversations, answer questions, and connect with your clients at each step of their journey.

1. Your contact information will now appear directly on the listings detail page. This enables your clients to reach out directly while exploring homes to ask questions, get more information, and even schedule a tour.

2. The lender co-sponsor will now appear in the “Your Team” tab. This allows for you and your co-sponsored lender to be highly visible to your clients on each listing page.

3. All direct messages from clients (with the exception of the pre-qualification message) in the “Listings” side panel will now be routed to you as the agent. This enables even more ways for clients to reach out directly to engage in conversation about home affordability, buying budgets, and more.

4. The prequalification direct message will now be delivered to both agent and lender. This allows your co-sponsored lender to be immediately notified of any pre approval opportunities, while keeping you in the loop as well.

5. Everything else within Home Search is identical to the lender experience. Read about the Home Search for lenders here.

How will I be visible to my clients?

Your contact information and image appear everywhere the buyer sees listings, with ways for them to raise their hand and contact you directly when they want to learn more about any specific home.

This means that you are staying top-of-mind and seen as a trusted advisor when the buyer is ready to purchase.

How will my clients get Home Search?

Your clients will be sent a monthly market report as well as have search information included in their monthly digest emails once you enable the feature.

Home Search will be enabled automatically if you’re co-sponsored with a loan officer.
