Guides

Practical workflows for listing, verifying, and evaluating property evidence.

Agent Resources

Operational habits that keep listings verified, current, and easy to trust.

Verified listing checklist

  • Upload original photos before any chat-app forwarding.
  • Accept the photo GPS suggestion when it matches the property.
  • Use the map picker only when the exact buyer navigation point is different.

Trust and review signals

  • A far GPS override is held for admin review before it becomes buyer-facing.
  • Duplicate-photo and stale-photo checks run before public visibility.
  • Drone GPS is retained as evidence in the same verified-location pipeline.

Lead handling basics

  • Keep contact threads inside the platform until identity and listing trust are clear.
  • Record viewing intent and update listing status quickly after serious engagement.
  • Use buyer questions to improve captions, missing categories, and location clarity.

Seller Guides

Practical listing guidance for phones, professional cameras, and aerial shoots.

Listing with a phone

  • Turn on location services for the camera before taking property photos.
  • Upload from the original gallery, iCloud, Google Photos, USB, or direct browser file picker.
  • Avoid screenshots and chat-app downloads when you want the verified-location badge.

Using pro cameras

  • Pair Canon, Sony, Nikon, or Fujifilm cameras with their phone app when possible.
  • In Lightroom or Capture One, export with location metadata preserved.
  • If the pro batch has no GPS, add one phone snapshot at the property as the geo witness.

Using drones and aerial photos

  • DJI Mavic, Mini, Air, Phantom, and similar DJI files usually include GPS automatically.
  • Upload originals from the SD card or DJI app export instead of social-media copies.
  • Aerial evidence is strongest when the drone photo is above 30 meters and inside the Addis service area.

Buyer Guides

How to read trust signals before requesting a viewing or making an offer.

Location badge meanings

  • Verified location listings support directions after sign-in.
  • Drone evidence means a trusted drone photo also supports the property location.
  • Seller-provided location means the seller supplied the listing location. Sign in for directions.

Safer viewing habits

  • Prefer listings with current photos, clear verification evidence, and complete contact context.
  • Ask for listing-specific details instead of relying only on copied social posts.
  • Use platform contact and offer flows when the property moves from browsing to negotiation.

Price and area checks

  • Compare price per square meter with nearby active and recently changed listings.
  • Check whether the listing is sale, rent, project, or under-construction before comparing price.
  • Use the same currency and area unit settings across your search session.

Photo GPS Workflows

The platform verifies photo location from the original private proof file before the public image is compressed.

Usually preserves GPS

  • Direct browser upload
  • USB or SD card reader
  • AirDrop
  • iCloud Photos
  • Google Photos
  • Dropbox or Drive file upload

Often strips GPS

  • WhatsApp photo send
  • Telegram compressed photo send
  • Facebook Messenger
  • Instagram Direct
  • Screenshots
  • Lightroom export with location removed
