App store GlueDog revolutionises agents integration & workflows
Made Snappy 360 proudly announces its integration with GlueDog, the new PropTech app store designed to streamline operations for estate and letting agents. This strategic move positions Made Snappy 360 as the first supplier to leverage GlueDog’s innovative platform.
GlueDog is a comprehensive app store tailored specifically for the property industry, enabling seamless integration of suppliers into customer relationship management (CRM) systems. With plans to connect with 15 leading CRMs and over 60 suppliers, GlueDog aims to revolutionise how agents manage their workflows. Made Snappy 360’s integration marks the beginning of this transformative journey.
The initial phase of this integration sees Made Snappy 360 collaborating with Apex27, a leading CRM platform. With a simple click, agents can create property listings in Made Snappy 360 directly from their Apex27 dashboard, eliminating the need to re-enter addresses in multiple systems.
Completed tasks such as floor plans, images, and 360 tours are automatically synchronised with the CRM, reducing manual downloads and data entry. Additionally, leads generated through Made Snappy’s prospecting tool will be seamlessly pushed into Apex27, enhancing lead management efficiency.
James Wright, CEO and Founder of Apex27, highlighted the significance of this collaboration: “There is a universal desire to achieve seamless integration across all Proptech platforms, but the reality is that both time and resources are often in short supply.” This integration is projected to save Made Snappy 360 customers over 15 minutes of administrative time per property, allowing agents to focus more on their core activities and improve overall productivity.
Sian Hemming Metcalfe analysis on Labour’s Lettings policies
Sian Hemming Metcalfe is Operations Director of InventoryBase & Property Inspect UK, and acts as Advisory to ARLA Propertymark and Ambassador for Propertymark Trust. An expert in her field and hugely regarded in the industry, Sian also shares her wisdom to get people to stop and think about the important things in her sector, this month (first posted in her Linkedin Post), she gave her thoughts on what the new government means for the industry.
‘The Labour victory in the general election signals significant changes for the rental sector. As inventory professionals, it’s crucial that we understand and prepare for the potential impacts and opportunities of the proposed policies on our industry.
Policy Changes and Implications
Section 21 – Labour’s pledge to end “no-fault” evictions will likely lead to longer tenancies. This change could significantly impact and enhance our role. Increasing demand for comprehensive initial and end-of-tenancy reports. Greater emphasis on interim property inspections to ensure compliance and support proactive maintenance, and a need for more detailed documentation to support eviction proceedings
Housing Construction – Labour’s ambitious plan to build 1.5 million new homes over the next parliament presents both opportunities and challenges. Increased inventory and snagging report opportunities as new properties enter the rental market. Specialisation in new-build inventories, and a surge in demand for inventory professionals in high-growth areas
Leasehold Reform – The push towards commonhold ownership for flats and apartments may require, adaptation of inventory practices for commonhold properties, enhanced knowledge of commonhold specificities and their impact on inventories, and new inventory requirements for communal areas.
Letting Agent Regulation – Proposed new licensing for letting agents could have positive knock-on effects. Standardised inventory practices across the industry, opportunity for professional recognition of inventory clerks, and possible inclusion of inventory expertise in agent licensing requirements.
