Any Real Estate website requires different user roles, e.g., Agency, Developer, Owner, etc., for a good user experience. In RealHomes, we introduced User Role and User Approval Management features, which provide an easy way to assign, manage, and approve users. In this article, we will look at how these features will help you optimize user access for a better property management experience.
User Role Management
User Role Synchronization allows role assignments for proper capabilities for agents, agencies, property owners, buyers, and sellers to perform Real Estate tasks accordingly.
Key Benefits
Automated Role Assignment
You can assign predefined roles (Agent, Agency, Owner, Buyer, Seller, etc.) to any registered users as needed. These roles are also available in the registration form so that users can select a desired role during registration.
Controlled Access
You can modify the permissions for each user role to prevent unauthorized access to certain features and entire sections of the frontend user dashboard. This will ensure controlled access with limited capabilities.
Implementation in RealHomes:
- Enable User Role Synchronization in settings to link roles with site functionality.
- Enable or Disable specific user roles as needed and show the user role option in the profile.
- Manage permissions for property submission and management, profile edits, agency management, agent management, bookings and reservations, etc.
- You can also control the auto-assignment of the user role if the user role synchronization settings are disabled.
- Manage the capabilities of the default WordPress user roles, e.g., Subscriber, Contributor, Editor, or Author.
These features in User Role Management provide website administrators with a great way to handle different roles properly. You can find more details about it in the documentation.
User Approvals for a Secure Real Estate System
Over the years, we have received a tremendous number of requests to provide a way to manage user registrations to avoid spam and improve security. With User Approval Management, you can ensure only legitimate users get access to the platform.
Why It Matters in Real Estate
Prevents Spam Registration & Fraudulent Listings
Only real and legitimate people can sign up and submit their properties once their registration requests are manually approved. This will avoid spam registrations and fraudulent property listings.
Maintains Quality Control
Your visitors will have real properties to explore without clutter, spam, or unnecessary content. This will boost the quality of your platform, allowing you to maintain quality for overall website ranking and control.
Implementation in RealHomes:
- Set New User Approval Status to Pending or Approved by default.
- Customize login error messages for pending or denied users.
- Admins can manually review the user registration requests from a single dashboard to approve or deny them.

This feature acts as a gatekeeper to ensure genuine users can contribute to your Real Estate portal. The platform can’t be accessed during pending registration. For more details, please consult the documentation.
Conclusion
We are confident that you will like both of these features. Implement these settings today to improve security, control user access, and enhance the overall efficiency of your real estate platform.
