Iproperty is a excelent component for the serious users.
It has many functionalities and the support information is enough.
They are always developing new functionalities and making the current functionalities better.
The only poor thing is that you can't use the template override for extensions.
This only works on the first view default.php file and after that the other views are loaded with hardcoded path declarations.
When you want to edit you have to do this in the component folder and when you update the extension to a newer version you have to do it again.
The same thing happens when you want to disable some fields for the search functionality, then you must edit the helper file in the component folder.
Overall it's a good extension

Hi - thanks for the review. Just to be clear for others, it is possible to use template overrides. If you have questions, please ask in our forums and we'd be glad to help. Thanks.
earlier this week I was at a top local real estate agents, who was showing me his shiny new website, I was impressed and so I should of been because it was costing him 500€ a month,
on closer inspection apart from front end log in and some cool analytic reporting I realised IP feature set was on a par with this top end software,
out of the box It beats everything in the joomler line up for real estate hands down, I think it is excellent value for money, the customer support is excellent, so its a glowing review from me,

Excellent component for the serious estate agent with any sort of web presence, I would totally recommend Iproperty, it is worth every penny and im really glad i went ahead and made the purchase.
A great deal of ongoing thought and effort has been put into the development of Iproperty.
Support is second to none and once subscribed, you have full access to a busy forum with lots of useful information, modifications and online guides where posts are always answered.
A small team of busy developers are always there to help, they even go out their way to help you.
I have been developing websites for over 10 years, i have tried and tested all other real estate components here within the JED and others php scripts outside..
This is without a doubt, the most complete package around, im very happy!
Keep up the great work guys.. Justin

Easy to install, with a perfect support like never seen before, a really clean and powerfull extension that does what you expect and more !
Don't regret one centime of the cost of this component it really is worth it. It does what it says and the backup is very, very good. Now has the DPE plugin for those who need!
Well done iProperty team.
Well done iProperty team.
Hi, I am firstly a real estate agent, not a web developer and from the first standpoint this is a great extension for real estate agents delivering a great number of practical features that I expect will provide me with a competitive edge in my busines. The guys at I Property have patiently helped me out with some pretty dumb questions with support that could probably be classifies as above and beyond the call of duty. With the help of the crew at I Property and Rockettheme for that matter I have been able to build my own site and have found it to be a rewarding and satisfying if at times a bit of a frustrating experience. I believe that by using a quality product with quality backup ultimately offers the best value for my money as opposed to using a cheaper alternative that simply wont do the job. Cheers to the guys at I Property, its a pity some other vendors dont provide the level of assistance that they do, it might encourage more people like me to develop the confidence to have a go at projects themselves which would be a rewarding excercise for everyone involved
Iproperty is a five star, top-notch Joomla extension and product. I'm new to Joomla but not new to real estate or complete software apps, and it is very well thought out. Out of all of the extensions in the vertical market of Real Estate, this one stands waayy above the rest. With all of the available native modules and plugins, as well as the third party plugins, you have many options for helping your site visitors navigate through your property offerings. The support and feedback is also top notch. Look no further if you need a Real Estate extension! You've found it! Thank you Tim and the Thinkery team.
Really nice program, I look forward to their next. The google map function was the major selling point for me but getting deeper into the program and it's customisations... It's far more then I had hoped for. I did pay for the license and I feel that was worth it as well. Tim and Vinny have been a wealth of knowledge giving details as to how to change their program to better fit their customers, and they respond quickly.
Keep up the good work!

We build and own several Real Estate and hotel directory websites both in US and Europe, the platform I used was either our own software or Joomla with a Real Estate component. Since I downloaded iProperty, I lost the freedom of choosing the most suitable platform. iProperty is killing the competition!
There is a considerable gap between iProperty and the second competitor on the "Best Real Estate component for Joomla!" toplist ...

I have installed and tested 3 other components with the most votes. IProperty is easy to install, use and performs exactly as advertised. Test it out with the demo!! The support forum & staff are excellent. My clients are very pleased with the speed, ease of use, mapping features etc. Very importantly, the back button remembers custom searches. Which is a key feature most people want.
The layout and color changer is the absolute best I've seen 'out of box'. Thanks to The Thinkery, nice work.

I have used this software almost 1 year. Support is great but development is weak. There are only 2 developers behind this software. There are lot of bugs and issues witch are slowly determined. If you need more advanced Real Estate software with ability to add listings from front-end and where is also a payment system - try google search "real estate script", you will find better solution quickly. This is my opinion only.

Hi--
I'd like to point out that it's a bit unfair to provide a negative review based on product features that we didn't claim. It's understandable that you'd like payment features etc.-- but those are not part of the core product and were never advertised as features. So this is pretty pointless to criticize us for.
Thanks
Intellectual Property is a solid extension with many powerful features. It also plays well with Joomla! and produces attractive front end output. It's very intuitive to set up and the support from the developers has been both responsive and helpful.
One of the features which I found to be very useful is the capability to have properties included in several categories, including nested categories. This allows you to create menu links to various categories and category groupings.
Currently the component lacks IDX capability, and has only limited ability to link menu items to searches, but The Thinkery says they are working on these features for future releases. In my opinion, they will then have a truly top-shelf product.

I have used this component for almost 1 year now and have had great results. The support is terrific. This comes from a non-web site designer nor a technical person. They have been very helpful and quick with all my questions. I usually have an answer to my questions within 15 minutes if I use the forum.
From the standpoint of an owner of a Property Management Company, this is the best component on the market, and it has the best support team and staff. I have tried other products, and nothing comes close to comparison.
I just wish all other programmers spent the time and effort on their product as these people do. If you are looking for a return on your investment, go no further!

This was my first Joomla website and first complex extension installed but I had experience doing one real estate internet applications before and found this one very adequate and a lot easier than doing it by myself again.
The extension is very complete at this time v1.5.4 and the support is outstanding.....I recommend it.

I was hired to build a Commercial Real Estate site for a local company and was not too sure how I was going to approach the project. I knew I was using Joomla! so my quest started for the best RE components. I tested all of them and decided to go with iProperty. Without a doubt, the best decision I made.
They offer a lot of great features and the code is extremely easy to make changes to. BUT the most important aspect of this company is their support. Hands down the best and most efficient support I've received on ANY Joomla component. These guys do a great job answering all the questions people have and are extremely receptive to feedback and future features.
So I want to say thank you to the guys over at the Thinkery. You've made MY job a heck of a lot easier.

IP 1.5.3 did 90 percent of what we wanted -- amazing. The other 10 percent was simple to add due to:
1. Clean, easy-to-follow, easy-to-edit code
2. Practically instantaneous developer support
3. Excellent forums
Then, 1.5.4 came out. It does 95 percent of what we wanted. We could see our feedback implemented in the new release. Very gratifying!
I heartily recommend this product. We evaluated and even purchased several other real estate website platforms -- but they didn't come close. IP is best-of-breed by a mile right now, and I don't think that's likely to change anytime in the near future.

I have never paid for a piece of software before testing it.. Let alone bothering to set an account up to send a review.. BUT something about these guy's made me do it! And it’s great, even a local property agent said he paid over 3,000€ for his site, and it’s not as good.
Hat off to you guy’s job well done, keep up the good work
Recommendation… BUY it
Product Great
Support Great
And it does what it said on the tin
