THE ORIGINAL CLOUD-BASED TECHNOLOGY FORSALES | LETTINGS | PROPERTY MANAGEMENT | LETTINGS ACCOUNTS
But the biggest difference? The people behind it: 24 committed, caring professionals. We’ve been in the agency software business since 1988, so have a real understanding of the day-to-day challenges that our customers face, and that we and our software must solve.
Expert Agent is the original online, cloud based, technology solution for estate agents and lettings agents. It replaces old-fashioned-stuck-in-the-office estate agent software, and does everything you’d expect it to, and quite a bit more – from any PC, smartphone or iPad on the internet.

branches depend on it1500
15% of all properties sold or let are processed through it
100,000properties are marketed through it at any one time
1million+applicants are live at any time
IT IS…
always having the most up-to-date info at your fingertips - on any
device, anywhere
Dave Kayira Partner and Microsoft-qualified data specialist
Online software is the only way to go:
there’s no need to install expensive servers, or upgrade them every few years – a low monthly fee, a one-off set up charge, and you’re away
you can work on any PC, Mac, smartphone or iPad on the internet
work from the office, home, at a valuation (or even on holiday if you have to!)
no syncing needed – everyone’s screens are updated every time you click ‘save’.

weekly applicant emails to keep you ahead of the pack
As well as everything you’d expect from modern software, here are some things you wouldn’t…
Save time handling applicantsWhen an applicant registers on your website or on Rightmove, their details automatically populate your applicant list on Expert Agent and they get your ‘welcome’ email with a list of suitable properties. With this and every email you send them, they can update their details or requirements and even request viewing appointments – and you’re alerted the moment they do so.
Evaulate Team PerformanceWith Expert Agent you can monitor your staff and branch performance and even compare your company performance against the average of the other members.
Dashboard to help you focus on your prioritiesEach user can configure their dashboard to show what’s important in their job, so they can focus their efforts on their priorities, for example:• Applicants never matched / matched in last 14 days• Vendors whose contract with other agent expires in 7 days• and much more, all visible by negotiator, office or group.
Brilliant information for vendors• Easily see feedback from each viewing, so you’re
prepared when talking to vendors• Confirm viewings by email, remind by text. See at a
glance which still need confirming• Give vendors their own log-in so they can see the
viewings they’ve had, and the feedback received.
Weekly applicant email keeps you front of mindAn automatic weekly reminder email to all your ‘active’ applicants, showing properties matching their criteria – keeping your clients’ properties front of mind.
Social media made easyLove it or hate it, social media is here to stay, and Expert Agent makes it easy to promote your properties via Facebook and Twitter.
If you do lettings as well as sales, you’ll find Expert Agent is all you need to improve your workflow…
• With one system to learn, your team can multi-task across sales and lettings, making them more productive
• One common diary system, task list, applicant list and property list – no re-entry of data or two diary mishaps.
• Double-entry book-keeping system, designed by a Chartered Accountant
IT IS… the software that does it all – for sales, lettings and property management

IT IS… having a system that clients see as a benefit“Have we ever gained a vendor because of Expert Agent? Definitely. One lady, a driving instructor, was on the market with another agent, and because she was an applicant with us we sent her regular email and text updates of new properties, which impressed her so much she switched her instruction to us.” Shaun Adams, Cooper Adams, East Preston, W. Sussex
Our members send each other 3000 local valuation referrals each month. Our unique Potential Valuation Alert (PVA) system uses the power of the 1500-member network to alert you about people in your area who are thinking of selling, so you can get in ahead of your competitors.

Mike Griffiths,MD and 23 yrs in agency software & 10 in agency
IT IS…
a company you can depend on
Choosing the right software is a big decision, but it’s just as important making sure the right company is behind it.
The last 10 years have seen a string of software companies come and go, leaving their agency clients high and dry…
Expert Agent has been going since 2003, we’ve been through two recessions and will be here for many more years. We’re profitable, and well-funded privately (no big corporate or media group mind-set or agenda here!).
Our products are well designed and thoroughly tested, because, well, this is all we do. We’re a team of 24 people, and between us we have 65 years of experience supplying software to estate agents and 20 years of volume residential estate agency experience. Several have been estate agents or lettings agents, which makes us well equipped to understand your challenges and help you take them on.
In short, it is a company you can depend on.
