How Buyers Leave Feedback on Properties
TL;DR
Buyers can give clear, structured feedback in two ways: Set the property status to Interested or Rejected, or Leave comments in the property chat. This keeps decisions explicit, searchable, and eliminates messy WhatsApp/email threads.When to use this
- After reviewing a new property in a shared portfolio
- When narrowing down options before scheduling viewings
- When rejecting properties to avoid revisiting them later
- When clarifying why a property is (or isn’t) a fit
Step-by-step instructions
Option 1: Change Property Status (Best for fast decisions)
- Open the shared portfolio.
- Click on a property to open its details.
- Set the status to one of the following:
- Interested → The buyer wants to explore this further.
- Rejected → The buyer is no longer interested in this property.
- The status updates instantly and is visible to the agent.
Why this matters:
Status is the fastest signal. It tells the agent exactly where the buyer stands—no interpretation required.
Option 2: Use Property Chat (Best for nuanced feedback)
- Open the property details page.
- Scroll to the Chat section.
- Write a comment such as:
- Concerns (price, layout, location, renovation needs)
- Likes (light, terrace, neighborhood, potential)
- Questions for the agent
- Send the message.
Why this matters:
Chat captures context. Status says what, chat explains why.
Common issues & tips
- “I forgot to explain why I rejected it.”
→ Use chat alongside status changes. Rejections without reasons slow the agent down.
- “I just commented but didn’t change the status.”
→ Best practice: always pair comments with a status update.
- “I don’t want to hurt the seller’s feelings.”
→ Feedback is private between buyer and agent. Sellers never see it.
- Accuracy check:
- Interested ≠ booking a viewing
- Rejected = remove from active consideration
- Performance tip:
Clear buyer feedback reduces back-and-forth and speeds up shortlisting dramatically.
