Make use of all the tools and resources provided by Azure, and at a minimum cost, you could move your website to Azure if you have a good standing reputation and cloud consumption owing to your wide user base; you may also qualify for a migration incentive from Azure which can cover all your costs.

Project Background -Property Management Website
Ultimate Property Solutions discussed about their business and how they wanted to create Property Management Website development with search filters on their existing website to make it more user-friendly for their clients.

- The listings should lead them to contact the property manager for that particular building.
Website Management:

Implementation

Security:

Backup and Recovery
As part of our standard process website backup was scheduled to be automatically saved every 2 weeks or after any major feature go live which helped them to ensure the site can be restored easily.
We perform a Restore recovery testing once every 45 days,
Scalability
Website is designed to scale up to 10X times the average load received in the 1st 6 months of its usage and was modifable with just a few clicks.
Cost Optimization
Since the client had a fixed budget so we preferred to go with our Hosting Partner GoDaddy
Code Management, Deployment
Code for the app is handed over to the client through a Repo which we created for the client.
CI/CD was implemented to automatically add, build and deploy any code changes
Reporting
All leads being generated can be seen easily on the website using the contact form which was loaded on each page.
Ongoing Management
Website is developed in a user friendly mannger to help team members to understand how to manage properties from backend. easy to Use Interface which starts showing the listing as soon as it goes live.
features of a Property Management Website Development
- User would be able to add filters to search a property based on their requirements
- Admin can manage the availability of the existing properties and allows to add new property listings along with adding amenties like Bedroom, Bathroom and others which were fully configurable from backend.
- User can immediately fill forms to contact the agent on the property management website
- Admin and team member can see a consolidated view about the leads which have come over from the tool
- Website was Secured using SSL and had backup taken every 15 days
Challenges
- In order for us to load the initial data we had to manually load close to 100+ property listing which made the site slow and loading speed not so optimum
- We reduced the image size to 400KB each image instead of 2.5 MB and more which was provided by the client. This helped to ensure the speed can be faster
- As per our SEO time the listing page was not something which could be SEO listed or optimized and was also not the right page for running Ads
- To ensure the website can have more conversions and user can land on the website we created a seperate landing page for tenants and owners.
- We mostly got a lot of tenant applications and not so many owner applications. Client was keen to get owners as they are the drivers for business gain but with each listing we did and the website pages ranking with Ads we just keep on getting owner as the lead
- It was decided to launch ad copies which specifically mentioned offers like 1 month free, lowest management fees for owners.
Project Completion
Duration
Feb 2020 – May 2020 ~ 3 months
Deliverables
• Website modification with a property management custom module was implemented and published with existing content on the site, Fully responsive web and Mobile pages.
• Handover to the client with an In Person screen sharing sessions and a User Guide for the client’s team member to start managing the listing and getting the details of the leads.
• Setting up Social media, Ad Management and creating Ad Copies and promoting ad pages

Testimonial
- We got 40 such interests on Website and around 12 more on the different Social Media channels who were mostly tenants but a few owner inquiries.
- A new Facebook page was created and we had Facebook likes of 101 Users in 3 months with just 100$ spent,
The property management website designed by Peritos has helped to show the property listings on the website has led to saving of time and resources of our team members to send this individually to all users instead of we now just direct them to the site.
