This component solved my real estate database problem. Here are the reasons why:

1 - It's well-built. There are some errors as far as server compatibility (I had trouble with wamp error-reporting) but after that was addressed, it seems to run smoothly. Simple code, and by far THE BEST database table setup. Other open-source programs and some commercial products use poor database structure that make cross-integration impossible or too heavy on the server. I am working on a website for my commercial real estate company, and this is built where I can modify as necessary.

2 - To further the cross-integration point, using the component Fabrik, I can pretty much modify this and create custom modules. I also now have the ability to integrate my properties database with other databases for property management, tenant management and accounting. Again, simple-but-effective table structure goes a long way.

3 - Clean look, little customization needed. I am not a fan of the non-tab view, but the view with tabs is great. I'll be replacing the default icons with my own, but that and simple css changes are easy enough. The tabbed view really is a good way to present property listings.

4 - Great support. There was a fast, simple response by este8an to my error. My fault was that I didn't search for an answer to my problem hard enough. Instead of blasting me for not searching thoroughly through the forums, este8an simply added a link to my post to find what I needed. Too often people like me are blasted for this. Kudos este8ban.

Obviously the program was not written by a native english speaker, but it's not too far of a stretch to figure out what you need, correct a few spelling errors, etc. Don't let that stop you.

I'm impressed enough with this that I'd be willing to help with simple things (like cutting out the icons more cleanly, etc) that are within my bounds. Heck, if este8an gets a 'donate' module here by the time I finish my site, I'd definitely donate. 'Nuff said.
