Search requests in WP-ImmoMakler: Activate, manage, deactivate

How do search requests work in WP-ImmoMakler?

With WP-ImmoMakler, website visitors can create a search request (search agent). As soon as a suitable property is published, they automatically receive an e-mail notification.


Functionality of the search requests

  • Interested parties can enter specific search criteria (e.g. location, price, property type).
  • If a suitable property is published, WP-ImmoMakler automatically sends an e-mail.
  • This keeps interested parties up to date - without having to actively check the website.
