Eugene, OR -- (SBWire) -- 05/15/2009 -- IDX, Inc. is excited to welcome its newest addition Fred Lutes, to the rapidly growing database of real estate professionals choosing to use their primary product, IDX Broker. Visitors to Lutes’ site in Kennewick, Washington and its surrounding areas, now have access to thousands of property listings and details, provided by the Tri City MLS (TCMLS). This unique IDX solution takes raw listing data from the TCMLS, and formats the information to be displayed as a seamlessly integrated part of Lutes’ website.

Search categories such as: basic, advanced, map, address and listing ID, give clients the tools narrow their search results to as little or as much detail as they desire, in efforts to find their ideal home. Throughout each listing page, home seekers may be easily and quickly linked to contact the listing agent for more information, schedule a showing, view large photo galleries, email property details, print flyers, pinpoint their chosen location on an interactive satellite, road or terrain map, and calculate likely mortgage payments. Visitors to Lutes’ site may also save their search preferences, and opt to receive automatic email updates when a property matching their specifications becomes available on the TCMLS.

Access to an administrative login page enables Lutes to customize his website to best fit both his and his clients wants and needs. He is given the capabilities to edit his CSS and global wrappers, creating a unique branding throughout each page of his site. He has access to traffic reports, detailing which pages and listings on his site are being view most frequently. And Lutes also has the ability increase his listings visibility by creating custom XML codes and dynamic title tags, all of these resources aiding in Lutes managing his business more efficiently, and in turn generating more revenue.
