Frequently Asked Questions

How are Agents assigned when a User creates a Saved Search?

When a User creates a Saved Search in Propertybase CRM, the "Contact Owner" is used to automatically assign the corresponding agent in your Propertybase Website. If the Contact Owner is not available (e.g. not synced to the website or the user role is set to "employee"), then the default Lead Agent will be used instead.

When exactly are Saved Searches sent to a Contact?

Saved searches are sent depending on individual frequency settings, selected by the user at the time of creation. Use the table below to learn more about these frequencies.
