The postings and replies to the ads are stored in a database thereby making it easier to track and respond to replies.

In order to build interactivity into the real estate web solutions and to provide value added services to users various additional tools and components can be added to the solution. Some of the tools/components that can be integrated with the solution include the following:

• Virtual Tours: Real estate agents/sellers can create and upload virtual tours of the property that they wish to sell. This enables buyers to get an idea of the property.
