Professional handling here builds trust and moves the deal forward.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">The Notification &amp; Acceptance Flow<\/h4>\n<ol start=\"1\">\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Alert:<\/strong>\u00a0You will receive a notification and see a new card in your &#8220;Inspections&#8221; tab under\u00a0<strong>&#8220;New Requests.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Review &amp; Act Quickly:<\/strong>\u00a0Open the card. It shows the property address, seeker&#8217;s name, and proposed inspection date\/time. You must\u00a0<strong>Accept or Decline<\/strong>\u00a0promptly. A fast &#8220;Accept&#8221; signals professionalism.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>If You Accept:<\/strong>\u00a0The inspection moves to the\u00a0<strong>&#8220;Pending&#8221;<\/strong>\u00a0tab. The date\/time is now confirmed for both parties. Use the contact details provided to send a quick confirmation message (e.g., &#8220;Looking forward to showing you the property on [Date]. The address is&#8230;&#8221;). This small step is highly appreciated.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>If You Must Decline:<\/strong>\u00a0Only decline if absolutely necessary (e.g., property just became unavailable). Decline courteously and promptly to free the seeker to book another inspection.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">Coordinating the Inspection<\/h4>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">In the &#8220;Pending&#8221; tab, you have tools to manage the appointment.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Reschedule:<\/strong>\u00a0If you need to change the time, use the &#8220;Reschedule&#8221; button to propose new slots directly through the platform.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Cancel:<\/strong>\u00a0If the inspection cannot proceed, cancel here. Excessive cancellations can affect your account standing.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Contact Seeker:<\/strong>\u00a0Use the provided button to call or message the seeker directly for logistical details.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">Post-Inspection Completion<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">After the viewing, either you or the seeker can mark the inspection as\u00a0<strong>&#8220;Completed.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">This moves the card to the\u00a0<strong>&#8220;Completed Inspections&#8221;<\/strong>\u00a0history.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">Once here, the system will prompt you to\u00a0<strong>Rate Your Experience<\/strong>\u00a0with the seeker. Provide honest feedback on their punctuality and seriousness. This community feedback system helps maintain quality for all users.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">Professionalism is Key<\/h4>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">Treat every booked inspection as a serious business appointment. Be punctual, prepared, and respectful. A positive inspection experience, even if the property isn&#8217;t a perfect fit, leads to good ratings, repeat business, and referrals. Your inspection management is a direct reflection of your brand.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space empty_h=&#8221;5&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row unlock_row_content=&#8221;yes&#8221; row_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; h_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; top_padding=&#8221;0&#8243; bottom_padding=&#8221;4&#8243; back_color=&#8221;color-xsdn&#8221; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; content_parallax=&#8221;0&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;208888&#8243; back_color_type=&#8221;uncode-palette&#8221;][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;0&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; radius=&#8221;sm&#8221; [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":251,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-250","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-for-agents-property-owners"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/properti.ng\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/250","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/properti.ng\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/properti.ng\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/properti.ng\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/properti.ng\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=250"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/properti.ng\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/250\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":252,"href":"https:\/\/properti.ng\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/250\/revisions\/252"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/properti.ng\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/251"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/properti.ng\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=250"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/properti.ng\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=250"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/properti.ng\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=250"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
