BUILT FOR SOUTH AFRICAN ESTATE AGENTS
Most SA estate agencies are losing business to the wrong phone system
If any of these sound familiar, your current setup is costing you commissions — every single day.
Business number stays with the agency
When an agent leaves, your number and client call history stays with you — not on their personal mobile.
Every agent reachable from any location
Show houses, client viewings, OTPs, site meetings — agents answer professionally from wherever they are.
All branches on one system
Transfers between branches, shared IVR, shared reporting — one dashboard for your whole operation.
Every client conversation recorded and stored
POPIA compliant and searchable by agent or date. When an OTP dispute arises, you pull the recording in seconds.
FEATURES FOR ESTATE AGENTS
Every feature your agency needs — nothing you don't
Built around how SA estate agents actually work — always mobile, often between properties, managing multiple clients and listings simultaneously.
Mobile app — answer from any show house
Every agent's iPhone or Android becomes a full business extension. Calls ring on their phone wherever they are — show house, viewing, coffee meeting — and clients see your agency number, not a personal mobile.
Ring groups — first available agent takes the call
A property inquiry calls your main line. Ring groups ring all available agents simultaneously — whoever answers first handles the lead. No inquiry sits unanswered because one agent was busy.
Call recording — every conversation documented
Record all client calls — OTP discussions, mandate negotiations, price feedback. POPIA-compliant storage, searchable by agent or date. Essential for dispute resolution and agent training.
IVR — route callers to the right department
"Press 1 for residential sales, 2 for rentals, 3 for commercial." Your auto-attendant handles the routing so every caller reaches the right team without the receptionist manually transferring each call.
Time conditions — after-hours handled automatically
Show day on Saturday? After-hours calls route to an on-call agent's mobile, a custom message or voicemail-to-email. Time conditions switch automatically — no one needs to remember to change anything.
Call analytics — know which listings drive calls
See which numbers get the most calls, when your peak inquiry times are, which agents answer the most and least. Real data to improve your marketing spend and agent accountability.
