Property Matching (Settings)
Within Street you can run property matches as well as applicant matches, for both sales and lettings, allowing you to send suitable properties to your applicant database.
To get started, head to Settings (on the left side panel, at the bottom) > Branch Settings > Property Matching.
Note - You will need to be a Branch or Company Admin to access the Property Matching settings.
Fuzzy Matching
Firstly you can enable the Fuzzy Matching feature. Fuzzy matching allows you to match an applicant to a property that is slightly above or below their price range. If enabled, you can choose what percentage above and below the property price you want to include in the matching.
For example, if you have 10% enabled, on a property listed at £200,000 it will be matched to applicants with a minimum budget of £220,000 and a maximum budget of £180,000.
Include Low Profile Properties
Next you can choose to include low profile properties in matches. Low profile properties are ones that are being hidden from the portals, for more information see this help article.
If enabled, any properties that have been marked as low profile in their listing will be included in matches and can be sent to applicants. This applies to both regular matching as well as PerfectMatch.
You do have control to manually remove a property too if required?????/
PerfectMatch - Include properties from other branches
The next option applies specifically to the PefectMatch feature and when enabled will allow properties in other branches to show when doing a PerfectMatch.
Website Settings
Finally under website settings you can choose where you want to direct applicants on the match email they receive.
By default property match emails sent from Street have a link to the Street public page for the relevant property. However you can edit this to link to your agency website instead, to boost traffic and maintain brand consistency.
Note - It is important to highlight, if you are not using the Property Feed API to feed to your website you will not be able to use this feature.
To enable this option, tick the box labeled 'Link property match emails to my personal website' and enter the URL pattern that Street will use to generate links to your website.
The URL pattern will most likely need to be arranged by you and your web developer and must include the property's 'UUID'. The UUID is Street's identifier for the property and appears in the property feed, which is why you need to be using the property feed API to feed to your website. It will appear in the API like this.
"type": "property",
"id": "UUID",
Examples of URL patterns
The exact format of the URL will vary but some examples are below.
https://www.yourwebsite.co.uk/property/{UUID}https://www.yourwebsite.co.uk/redirect.php?property={UUID}
Note - If this is not tested and links are wrong, match email will send with incorrect links.
If you use a 'custom' URL for example 'https://www.yourwebsite.co.uk/1-bedroom' you will need to setup a redirect to this page using the property's UUID.
