Default Contact icons for every listing

Hey guys,
what do you think of this idea. Of course this is regarding the REW IDX.

On the listing details page, have 3 icons/links that will present a user with different ways of finding out more information.
  • Property Inquiry
  • Schedule a Showing
  • Call Me

The 'Call Me' link/icon, would basically allow a user to ask the agent to give them a call regarding a specific listing. I've seen this feature on other REW sites, but I couldn't find where it's used on the actual listing details page.

What do you think of this idea and is anyone currently using that?

Certainly would not be a big deal to add - like an hour tops. Some people may want it, others may not - seems like one to many buttons to me, but if that is your thing, not a problem we would stick it in there for you.

Incidentally here are the standard out of the box REW IDX buttons that go above each listing. What is missing is "Map" which is a tab if mapping is available in your area.

Thanks Morgan. I just think it might make a visitor feel good if they know that there are multiple ways of finding out more information.

I'm meeting with my broker to discuss what REW can offer. I'll keep my fingers crossed. Wish me luck.

Good luck bro

In terms of extra buttons, there are always other options in terms of "Contact me" - Such as northcountyluxuryhomes.com details page where Bob has a nice business card type call to action with his photo at the bottom, or jimolenbush.com where we have the cantera contact information on the left hand side of the details page.
