Custom Templates
Create reusable proposal templates that include property-specific sections, optional service line items, and pre-approved legal language to ensure uniformity across agents and transactions.
Using a unified quote-proposal format reduces back-and-forth with clients, clarifies fees and deliverables, and shortens time to signed agreement while keeping records auditable and exportable for team workflows.
A Listing Agent needs templated proposals that present commission breakdowns, staging services, and timeline expectations in a clear format. They benefit from pre-filled contact data, mobile signing for on-site client approvals, and a reliable audit trail for contract dates and signatures.
A Transaction Coordinator manages document assembly, signature sequencing, and deadline monitoring across multiple listings. They require automation for reminders, secure storage that meets compliance requirements, and integrations to import/export documents to MLS and broker systems.
Real estate professionals adopt quote-like proposals to standardize offers and collect signatures electronically before showing, listing, or closing processes.
Teams use these documents to reduce administrative overhead and to maintain consistent records across multiple transactions.
Create reusable proposal templates that include property-specific sections, optional service line items, and pre-approved legal language to ensure uniformity across agents and transactions.
Auto-fill client names, property addresses, dates, and pricing directly from CRM records or intake forms to reduce manual editing and maintain accuracy within each proposal.
Define signer order so sellers, buyers, and agents sign in a controlled sequence, ensuring approvals occur in the intended workflow and timestamps are recorded.
Show or hide parts of a proposal based on selected options, allowing a single template to handle different service levels without creating multiple document versions.
Maintain complete, timestamped logs of document access, delivery, views, and signatures to support dispute resolution and regulatory recordkeeping.
Ensure proposals render correctly on phones and tablets so clients can review and sign on-site or remotely without format issues.
Import client contact details and use Google Docs templates to prepare proposal text before merging into the signature workflow, keeping content editable and collaborative for teams.
Bi-directional integration with CRMs ensures that client records, signature status, and executed documents update automatically, reducing duplicate data entry and preserving client history.
Automate saving executed proposals to cloud folders such as Dropbox or Google Drive to centralize records and provide consistent backup and access control across the brokerage.
Link proposal deadlines and signing dates to team calendars to ensure reminders and follow-ups are visible to agents and coordinators, helping meet contract timelines.

Ensure the devices and browsers you use meet minimum requirements so proposals render correctly and signature functions operate reliably.
For mobile and tablet usage, test templates on target devices and verify identity verification flows such as SMS OTP and camera-based ID checks work as expected; ensure apps or browsers are up to date to avoid compatibility issues and to preserve the integrity of signature capture and document rendering.
A listing agent assembled a single proposal that detailed staging services, marketing fees, and the commission schedule in a clean layout suitable for clients.
Resulting in faster listing approvals and a clear digital record for the brokerage to reference during the sales period.
A buyer's agent created a concise offer summary outlining price, contingencies, and earnest money deadlines so clients could review before submitting to the seller.
Leading to a reduced review time, fewer questions from clients, and a clean audit trail for the transaction file.
