Automated Property Alerts Guide

Manual property checking is a losing game. You check websites daily. Properties get listed at 2 AM. Competitors find them first. You miss opportunities.

Automated alerts solve this. Properties come to you. You're first to know. You're first to enquire.

The Problem with Manual Checking

Most property seekers check websites manually:

  • Visit 5-9 different sites
  • Check daily (or every few days)
  • Miss properties listed overnight
  • Find out about listings days later
  • Lose deals to faster competitors

The result: You're always behind. Someone else finds properties first.

The IndiFind Solution

Automated alerts notify you instantly when new properties match your criteria. No manual checking. No missed opportunities.

How it works:

  1. You build routes and set preferences
  2. IndiFind monitors all properties 24/7
  3. New listings are checked against your criteria
  4. You get notified instantly when there's a match
  5. You're first to enquire

Alert Best Practices

Start with Instant Alerts

Begin with instant alerts to see how many matches you get. If it's too many, switch to daily digest.

Review and Refine

After a week, review your alerts:

  • Are you getting relevant matches?
  • Too many? Narrow your preferences
  • Too few? Broaden your criteria

Act Quickly

When you get an alert:

  • Review immediately
  • Enquire within hours (not days)
  • Being first matters

Use Multiple Routes

Set up alerts for multiple routes:

  • Primary supply chain
  • Expansion markets
  • Backup locations

Each route gets its own alerts.

Common Questions

Will I get too many alerts? Start with instant alerts. If it's overwhelming, switch to daily digest or refine your preferences.

What if I'm on vacation? Alerts still work. You can review them when you return. Or pause alerts temporarily.

Can I pause alerts? Yes. Pause and resume alerts anytime from your dashboard.

Do alerts work for all countries? Yes. Alerts work across all 9 European countries IndiFind covers.
