They switch between each other automatically.\nClean Menu Design The default menu design is a simple & minimal one.

There is a versatile top menu on the desktop version, and the template replaces this with an off-canvas menu on mobile devices (small screens).

SP Property Component

For every new template, we build necessary relative components and extensions to make it work perfectly. Empire also gets a special component, SP Property.\nTotal Property Management The SP Property component has every individual feature that you would expect to add, manage and show properties. Site admins need to input some specific data (measurement, facilities etc.) about the listable assets and all of these create a property post.\nVisit Request Registrar Once a property post goes live, an interested party can place a request to visit the asset. When a visit request is received, the SP Property component automatically creates an entry in the ‘Visit request’ category on the backend. It’s very competent.

Organized Property Display

Using Empire, one can organize and display a collection of properties with ease. The template has built-in slider and content organization features to make it happen.\nStylish Slider Having a top slider is a very popular trend nowadays. Empire also offers the facility to place a stunning slider on a site built with the template. The slider has a unique thumb-style design to open a slider frame by clicking it on the thumb area shown on the slider’s bottom side.\nRich Single Pages Single pages for property posts are very informative and rich. Admins can display each and every possible details (e.g. photos, maps, layout etc.) about a property using Empire. It’s like a visual tour, where potential customers can experience the property virtually.

Agent Management

Agents are a very important part in real estate deals. They explore real properties and provide information to interested parties. Empire knows this.\nAdd Agents With Empire, real estate site admins can add agents to their site along with information related to them like their portfolios, contact details, contact forms etc.\nLocation Maps While adding a real estate property, you can add a map of the property location. The location map is shown on each single property post item. Each property is listed under an agent. So there can be several properties under each agent. When a visitor visits an agent’s profile, all of the property locations are identified by pins in a single map frame.

Exclusive Search

For the Empire template, we’ve developed a new type of searching system to help your site visitors explore and find desired properties.\nQuick Search The Empire template has a quick search option for users who want to find a property with least efforts. The search module can be placed on any page using SP Page Builder and then visitors can search listed properties applying some basic filters.\nAdvanced Search With the advanced search option of the SP Property Search module, users get a wide range of criteria and filters to perform a deep conditional search through the entire property site. The module provides the advanced search option right under the search box to let people use it easily.
