The Notifications Page in Brevitas serves as a centralized area where users can view all system notifications related to their activity on the platform. This page provides essential updates regarding saved searches, listings, deal statuses, document requests, and more. Notifications are presented in a chronological list format, helping users stay on top of important changes, new opportunities, and relevant actions.
Structure of the Notifications List
Each notification is listed with the following key elements:
• Message: Describes the content of the notification, such as property updates, document approvals, confidentiality agreements, or new listings matching saved criteria.
• Date: Displays the timestamp of when the notification was generated, helping users track when important events or changes occurred.
Types of Notifications
1. Market Activity Notifications
• These notifications inform users about significant market actions, such as when a listing is removed, restored, or archived. For example:
• “Listing has been removed from the market and archived” – This informs the user that a property they are interested in is no longer available.
• “Your listing for 2150 Post Street has been approved and published” – Signals when one of your listings has been successfully published.
2. Saved Search Updates
• Users who have set up saved searches receive notifications when new listings match their criteria. For instance:
• “3 new listings for California Multifamily” – Alerts the user that new multifamily listings in California have been added.
• These notifications appear frequently, allowing users to stay updated on newly listed properties that fit their search preferences.
3. Deal and Document Activity
• Notifications related to deals or documentation processes keep users informed of any key developments. Examples include:
• “Sierra Crest Center | Mixed-Use Investment Opportunity is pending sale with another buyer” – Alerts the user when a property is no longer available because it’s under contract with another buyer.
• “Sign the Confidentiality Agreement for Sierra Crest Center” – A prompt for users to sign necessary documents to proceed with a deal.
4. Report and Listing Actions
• Notifications related to reports or listing-related activities help users stay informed about deal room activity or reports:
• “7.8% Cap | Shopping Center | Reno - Call for Offers 10/17 Report Finished” – Indicates that a report or document has been completed and is available for review.
Pagination and Navigation
At the bottom of the notifications list, there is pagination allowing users to browse through older notifications. Each page contains a set number of notifications, and users can click the arrows or specific page numbers to navigate:
• Pagination: Allows users to move between pages to access older notifications. This ensures that users can track important updates even if they missed them when they first appeared.
• Link to Recent Notifications: A clickable link at the bottom of the page allows users to jump directly to the most recent notifications for quicker access.
Practical Use of the Notifications Page
• Stay Updated on Listings: Regularly checking this page ensures you don’t miss any new listings that match your saved search criteria, allowing you to act quickly on potential deals.
• Track Deal Progress: The notifications also keep you informed about ongoing deals, ensuring you are up-to-date on any document requirements or changes in the deal’s status.
• Document and Confidentiality Agreement Updates: When working on confidential deals or when accessing gated listing information, this page ensures that you are notified of document updates or necessary actions like signing confidentiality agreements.
Additional Features
• Search and Filter: While not visible in the current screenshot, many notification systems include search or filter functions, allowing users to find specific notifications quickly (e.g., searching for notifications related to a particular property or saved search).
