Feature Requests
Welcome Rex Users!
Let us know what you really want out of the system you use in your businesses every day!
Please include as much detail as possible about what the feature is and how the feature would make your life easier – this will encourage other rex users to vote for your request rather than creating a duplicate idea. The more votes you get the quicker your idea will come to our attention :)
How it works:
- You can add as many new ideas here as you like but each new idea that you add will cost you one of your votes.
- You have ten votes to use. You can distribute these however you like with a maximum of 3 on any single item. You can remove a vote if you change your mind and put it elsewhere.
- If you have voted on an item that is then implemented, you will get those votes back to use again.
Remember – no request is too small :)
Happy voting!

Under Newletters the order of listings needs reversal - new to old
When creating Newsletters when we put in the current listings the drop box lists the listings with the oldest listings first. This means scrolling/uploading pages and pages before getting to the latest and new listings. To save time this should be reversed so that the most recent listings come first.

ability to add a track from the contacts/properties/listings pop out box
It would be great to be able to add a track without having to necessarily click in to the associated file and have the ability to do it from the pop out box.
The fact that you can currently send an email, add note, add reminder, or add email suggest that it shouldn't be to hard to add this feature

Commercial Parking
Can you please add a drop down box for parking ie Onsite parking available, Free on street parking, No parking available etc. Entering in the number of car spaces isn't really applicable for all Industrial/Commercial listings and if you leave the car spaces field blank it uploads to internet sites as no parking available.

OFI LIST - Order alphabetically by suburb
OFI lists are best created in alphabetical order by suburb. Our receptionists find it difficult to have people holding on a call to filter through 2-3 pages of property addresses to advise the open times. Having the OFI report in alphabetical order by suburb would assist our administration staff greatly in being able to answer questions quickly and efficiently. The current reports work great for sales staff but not as practical for other situations, for the above reasons.

Activity Reports
Could the vendors email address and price be put on these as it would save time looking them up and price is a moving target so it confirms where price is at.

AUTOMATED EMAIL TRAIL:
You have a new client.
Perhaps they're a buyer for one of your new listings.
So Rex has a box where you've got numerous email trails set up and you tick the correct one for this particular property allowing you to automate your communications with the buyer to some extent.
There'd be a first email that perhaps thanks that person for registering and provides an extra detail about the property that's not been revealed to the public yet.
Email 2 might be a snapshot of the queue waiting to get in at your first open house.
Email 3 might be…

The ability to navigate to contacts related to listings via a lead OR feedback
at the moment there's no way to get to contacts who have only submitted a lead making future follow up (particularly in the context of similar listings) difficult, we need to be able to have a report that brings up everyone that has either inquired or inspected regardless of whether feedback has been entered.

Recommend an agency nominate at setup up if residential or commercial or both. If residential when adding a property the default would be residential, saving ket strokes on set up

Auction Reports and Listing Stock Reports - More filter options
We would like the Events List to filter by the event date in ascending order. This way we will be able to see easily which properties have events coming up. We would like it to only come up with Auctions/Set Date of Sale.
Listing Stock Reports - we would like a filter on this so that it will order by Listing Agent so that we can run 1 report for our office.12 votes -
Upcoming OFIs in Newsletter
All upcoming open homes should be listed under a listing on the newsletter, not added by date order as you may have an open on the Saturday & Sunday so the property comes up twice with one open for Saturday and then further down again for Sunday (would be better to have all opens included per listing).

Displaying Appraisals in Dashboard Stream
We find sharing details of the appraised properties between agents is a very handy tool as quite often an agent will have a buyer for a property that another one of our agents has appraised.
But they often don't get the time to actually sit down together and chat about it, it is an opportunity that gets missed.
I know you can perform a reverse match on the appraised property. But I think it would be much better if the appraisals showed on the stream so all of our agents are instantly aware of anything that has been appraised and…

sort listings after status: current - sold - settled
Have the ability to see the status of listings by adding an extra list into 'listings':
For Sale (shows all of your agency's listings for sale)
Sold (shows all listings that are sold but not settled)
Settled (shows all settled listings)
- it's easier to track upcoming settlements
- you could also connect the settlement date automatically to be a calendar entry
- you are aware of outstanding commissions/advertising costs12 votesHi Lena (and others who have voted on this suggestion),
Thanks for taking the time to log this. We’ve reviewed your suggestion and the associated comments and we’re a bit confused. It could be that your suggestion is asking for a few different things, or something is just going over our heads, we’re unsure.
Would you mind providing some more examples or some screenshots of what you mean to clarify for us and any other users that might be interested in this feature?
Thanks in advance!

Add Contact/property feature to be improved to be able to "Select/Change/Read/Add"
e.g. when prompted to "add a contact/company/property we should have the option to add the contact in, in its entirety, for example postal address, phone number, ability to add more than one person etc. We should be able to have an option to change/read a contact record and make sure the record we are applying is correct and make changes if we need to instead of having to go to the plus button to add a contact/company properly or to change it. There is a lot of doubling up with this feature currently and its easy to apply incorrect data…

Limitations when emailing all contacts linked to feedback for a listing
When we want to send an email to all contacts linked to feedback we can use a template but we are unable to:
1. have these emails show on the stream for the property listing record, which would be good to see when you would like get an overall picture of all correspondence relating to the listing
2. attach a brochure as an attachment (which is the case for all emails unless you email it from when you've generated the brochure)6 votes -
VENDOR REPORT - Comment section
I can see that there is a comments box to free write some text which then appears above the photo when you generate the pdf report.
If you then want to go back to the property, make a change and re-generate the pdf, it doesn't retain the free text from before. That's fine, and you can always copy and paste the text if you remember to.
Can we instead have somewhere within the property details where you could add some text which would then pull through to the report each time?27 votesThank you for the suggestion. We agree that vendor reporting as a system has a few areas of potential improvement. We’re looking to try and revisit our approach to vendor reporting in the near future.

The ability to add more than 1 type of valuation for a property.
Giving users the ability to add more than 1 type of property valuation under the more info tab would be fantastic.
Currently you can only add one type of valuation, for instance in NZ we could use RV. However, many offices, including ours use other types of valuations for marketing materials such as Land Value (LV).
Giving us the ability to add more than one type of valuation would fix the issue of having to create a seperate custom tab for this information, and would make the property information much more accessible and practical, by having all the valuations in…
1 voteHi Heinrich, thanks for your suggestion.
Does the land valuation and property valuation normally occur on the same date, or would it make sense to include an extra land valuation date and amount field?

When creating a 'Sold' list of properties from the listings tab, can we add the asking price and sold price to the report?
This will show our potential clients the recent sales we have made along with the asking price and sold price. This helps generate our competency.
9 votesHi all,
Thanks for the suggestion – we’re not entirely sure what you mean by creating a “Sold” list of properties however.
Are you exporting or producing some other kind of report? If you could provide some clarification both for us and for other users who might want to vote on this feature, that would be great.
Thanks in advance!

OFI LIST - OFIs to show even if listing is in draft mode
when properties are entered into rex and waiting for photos etc we still need to add them to the open for inspection list so that the scheduling of opens is made easier. We have almost double booked agents for opens because unpublished properties dont appear on the list.

Different ’Listing Alerts’ to send to potential buyers
When I send a mail merge to contacts attached to feedback on a listing, it is sent as a plain email and is not recorded on the listing.
It would be great if we could send updates to contacts attached to feedback - like we do with price changes or match alerts but for OFI time or Auction times.
Say if I wanted to send them an alert about an auction, it would come through like the price change emails or match alerts, with a blurb, photo and info about the listing.
