 Real Estate Search

Purpose

Using this process, you can generate offered objectsfor vacant rental objects or those that will soon be vacant. An offered object contains the most important data from the rental object it relates to. This is the data that you generally want to search for when someone is looking for a real estate object to rent. The object location and the fixtures and fittings are examples of this kind of data. To perform the search, you create an RE search request and enter the data of the prospect (business partner) there.

Extensive search functions enable you to find RE search requests and offered objects.
