The problem
Castles & Weathers has valued and sold property in Malawi since 1996. They needed their listings online in a form their own staff could keep current, with prices that make sense to a buyer in Lilongwe and to one abroad.
What we built
A listings site with an admin panel behind it. Staff add a property, upload the photos, set the price and publish it. A price can be shown in kwacha, in US dollars, or both, since a lot of property in Malawi is quoted in dollars.
From any listing a visitor can send an enquiry or ask to book a viewing. Each of the firm’s services has its own page, so the site works for valuation clients as well as buyers and tenants.
