🏘️ Creating & Managing Community Pages

As an Admin, you can create beautiful Community Pages to feature new builders and master-planned developments. These pages act as a "hub" on your website where visitors can explore local neighborhoods, learn about builders, and connect with your team. 🏠✨

🔨 Step 1: Add Your Builders

Before building a community page, you must add the builders associated with them to the system.

  1. Navigate to Listings: On the left-hand menu, go to Listings ➔ Communities.

  2. Open the Builder Tab: At the top of the dashboard, select the Builder tab.

  3. Add New: Click the + New icon ➕ in the upper right.

  4. Enter Details: Input the Builder’s name and a description of their work.

  5. Save: Press Save 💾 to add them to your master list.

    Tip: You can edit or delete builders anytime using the three-dot action button



🗺️ Step 2: Create the Community Page

Now, let’s build the actual page for the development.

  1. Start New Community: Under Listings ➔ Communities, click + New in the upper right.

  2. Capture Leads: 🎣 Click the Green Plus (+) next to the Lead Source box to attach a custom lead form to the page.

  3. Sync the MLS: Select the Green Plus (+) next to MLS Community to pull in active data from your MLS.

  4. Assign Agents: Click Add Agent to feature the specific experts associated with this community. 

  5. Fill in the Details:

    • Community Description: The full story and details for the landing page.

    • Contact Info & Directions: Essential details for the Sales Office and how to get there. 

  6. Save & Enhance: Once you press Save, new tabs will appear at the top! You can now upload:

    • Logos & Images 📸

    • Model Homes & Site Plans 📐

    • Attachments (PDF floor plans, brochures, etc.)

The Landing Page is the "front door" that displays all your individual community tiles in one beautiful gallery.
