New Updates Being Released December 29th, 2008

We have been hard at work these last few months making tons of updates to FillMyProperty.com.



Here is a quick overview of the new releases being released:

New quick search for properties on control panel (great for users with 5 or more properties)

  • A new frequently asked questions page
  • Improved picture upload process
  • New External marketing improvements that will ensure ads are released on time and stick longer.

We also have a major change happening in some markets as we begin to charge for our services. We wanted to remain a free service for as long as possible but the demands of keeping the quality of external marketing has forced us to add more personnel than we anticipated.

Our pricing will be broken down by State and will include two choices on how to list properties.


First is to post as a single listing for one fee with a listing time frame of 30 days depending on market. Your listing fee will include all feeds, external marketing, and all websites.


Your second option is to purchase a listing package. A listing package allows you to have a certain number of active properties at any given time. Listing packages will be billed every 30 days and will include all feeds, external marketing, all websites, and will include some enhanced features for power users with more than 10 properties.

We will have the price for both single listings and listing packages updated here in the next few days. You can view these on Our Fees page.

We do have some great new features in the coming weeks that we will be releasing that have been in development for a while now. We are hoping to get those released well before the spring market.

New Picture Upload Page and Weekend Updates

We made some modifications to our picture upload page. We are now limiting the size of images to 200K as well as checking for valid file types. We also added a loading indicator and are working on having this information relay the exact progress on your upload as well.

We are currently testing an automatic picture resizer that should solve 99% off all problems when uploading pictures to our site. Almost all problems when uploading forms is due to large file size. This causes the connection to time out on most uploads of files over 500K.

This weekend we are releasing a minor update but will have a drastic change on your external advertising. We are adding a new entery item for properties called 'search cities'. You can use this field to input cities that are close to your property.

On most of our external marketing we include these cities but this is system generated and not always as accurate as we would like. Some regional areas simply have too many cities located within and cause our ads to get flagged or frustrations with users searching for properties.

This new input will be on the property details section of the site and expect to see this live by this Sunday, November 2nd, 2008.
