Cross Checker
Cross checker in Inmovilla: understanding why a demand does not match a property
When a property does not appear among the matches of a demand, the cause usually lies in a seemingly minor but decisive detail: the price, the area, the presence of an elevator, or some specific condition of the operation. The Inmovilla cross checker is an advanced tool that allows a direct and detailed comparison between a demand and a property, precisely identifying which criteria are preventing a match from being generated.
This feature is especially valuable for analysing real estate demands with multiple filters, optimising the process by avoiding extensive manual searches, and correcting or updating data in the records when necessary to improve the quality of matches.
What is the cross checker?
The cross checker is a utility designed to evaluate the compatibility between a demand and a property. Unlike systems that simply indicate the absence of a match, this tool offers a detailed analysis that specifically points out which criteria are not met.
Matches are generated automatically, but since a demand can include numerous requirements and filters, a property that seems suitable at first glance may be discarded for not meeting some of the established parameters.
Its fundamental purpose is to answer a key question: why does this property not match this client?
When is it recommended to use the real estate cross checker?
It is recommended to use this tool in situations such as the following:
• When a property should fit a client but does not appear among their matches.
• If a demand shows fewer properties than expected.
• To confirm which filter or criterion is excluding a property.
• Before reviewing or modifying the search profile of a demand, to better understand its current parameters.
• To verify that the data recorded in a property’s record is correct and complete.
This tool effectively helps distinguish between a real absence of a match and a configured data point that requires review or adjustment.
Where to find the cross checker in Inmovilla
The main access to the cross checker is found in the Inmovilla side menu. To access it, follow these steps:
• Go to the Utilities section in the left sidebar.
• Navigate to the Resources tab.
• Select the Cross Checker option.
When opening the tool, you will see two separate spaces to select the demand and the property you want to compare.
How to perform a check to understand why a property does not match a demand
The procedure to use the checker is simple and consists of loading both records and analysing the comparison result:
• Select the demand you want to evaluate using the integrated search.
• Choose the specific property that is not generating the expected match.
• Examine the main data shown for each record.
• Review the criteria that the tool identifies as incompatible or blocking the match.
• Decide whether it is necessary to update the demand, correct the property record, or maintain the discard as appropriate.
The demand presents relevant information such as areas of interest, price range, and other specific requirements involved in the search. The comparison confronts these values with the data recorded in the property.
The highlighted criteria allow for precise identification of the reason why the demand and the property do not match.
Main criteria that can prevent a match
The checker thoroughly evaluates the fields defined in the demand and the data available in the property. Below are the most common reasons why a property may be discarded:
Price outside the requested range
The property price must be within the interval established in the demand. For example, if a client is looking for properties with a range of 165,000 to 283,000 euros, a property for sale at 69,100 euros will not generate a match, even if it meets other requirements.
When analysing a negative result, it is essential to review both the sale price of the property and the minimum and maximum limits established in the demand.
Incompatible search area or zone
The selected zones constitute a decisive criterion. A property located outside the search area indicated by the client will not be considered, even if its price and type of property seem suitable.
It is advisable to verify that the zone is correctly assigned in both records and that the demand includes all the areas that truly interest the client.
Specific property features
The features required by the demand are also analysed. A common example is the need for an elevator: if the demand requires it and the property does not have one or it is not registered, the match will not occur.
This type of incompatibility shows that it is not enough to compare only location, typology, and price to ensure a correct match.
Special occupancy conditions and operation mode
Demands may include specific requirements related to the occupancy status of the property. For example, a search may be exclusively oriented to occupied properties or sales linked to illegal occupation.
These conditions are also carefully evaluated. If the demand includes this requirement, the property must reflect a compatible condition for the match to be generated.
How to interpret the results of the cross checker
The main objective is not to force a match but to clearly understand which criterion is blocking the match. Once identified, it is important to analyse the context before making any changes.
• If the price is outside the range, confirm that the client’s budget is still correct and up to date.
• If the incompatibility is in the zone, verify that both the area assigned to the property and the desired zone in the demand are well defined and updated.
• If a feature is missing, validate that the data recorded in the property record is correct before editing it.
• If the conflict is due to occupancy or operation conditions, ensure that this requirement was intentionally included in the demand.
This analysis can reveal filters added during the initial configuration of the demand that later went unnoticed. Therefore, it is advisable to review all the demand requirements, not just the main fields.
Quick access to the checker from demands, properties, and matches
It is not always necessary to start the query from the Utilities section. The cross checker is also accessible from different work areas, which speeds up the review of specific records.
From a demand
If you are viewing a demand, open the Actions menu located at the top right and select Cross Checker. The demand will load automatically to facilitate the comparison.
From a property
Similarly, from a property record you can access this tool via the actions menu. When opening the checker from there, the property will be preselected, and you only need to choose the demand you want to compare it with.
From the matches section
It is also possible to access from the matches section through the actions menu. This option is very useful when reviewing matches or detecting the absence of one that was expected.
Common errors when reviewing matches
Limiting the review only to price
A property may be within the established budget and still not match due to the zone, absence of an elevator, or other requirements. Therefore, it is essential to review the complete list of indicated incompatibilities.
Forgetting filters added during demand creation
Specific requirements may have been incorporated during the initial profiling and are not obvious in a quick review. Occupancy conditions are an example of fields that can significantly modify the result.
Modifying a record without validating the information
It is not advisable to edit a property just to force a match. Before making any changes, confirm that the actual data of the property differs from that recorded in the record.
Assuming that the lack of a match is a system error
In most cases, the system is correctly discarding a property because it does not meet the defined requirements. The checker is designed to verify this logic and allow informed decision-making.
Checklist to resolve a missing match
• Select the exact demand and property for comparison.
• Review the price and established budget range.
• Verify the matching of zones or search areas.
• Check mandatory features, such as the presence of an elevator.
• Consult the special requirements defined in the demand.
• Validate the operation mode and occupancy condition when applicable.
• Correct only data that has been verified as incorrect or incomplete.
• Run the check again after making the necessary updates.
Conclusion
The Inmovilla cross checker is an essential tool to accurately identify why a demand and a property do not match. By comparing in detail aspects such as price, location, features, and specific conditions, it avoids assumptions and facilitates a reliable and precise review of records.
When an expected match does not occur, select both records, identify the incompatible criterion, and evaluate whether it is a valid condition or data that should be updated to improve the effectiveness of the match.
