Here are some updates and changes to the RPR website that are now live:

Property Details

• In the Property Summary of a Commercial lease listing, we are no longer rounding the $/Sq Ft value to the nearest dollar (to the right of the lease price).
  
• An information bubble has been added to the Financial Details section on Commercial properties, which will now include a brief description and directs members to a recent knowledge base article explaining each term.
  

Reports

Some of the language in various RPR Reports has been updated.

• The disclaimer on the Seller’s Net Sheet has been updated to:
  “The seller's net proceeds are estimated using available information. These are not the actual costs that would be incurred if a sale is consummated. Seller's net proceeds are not guaranteed in any way.”
  
  
• The disclaimer on the Estimated Equity report has been updated to: “Estimated equity is a calculation of the property value minus the estimated loan(s) payoff amount, which is based on the loan term, loan interest rate, loan start date and using a standard amortization schedule. The payoff amount is not guaranteed
  to be accurate.”
  
  
• The disclaimer on the Estimated Mortgage Report has been updated to: “The estimated mortgage amount is calculated using down payment amount, loan term and interest rate. The prevailing interest rate is supplied by default as available.”

Market Trends

• The Twitter logo shown when sharing Market Trends to Twitter has been replaced with their new logo, X.
  

The biggest news for the RPR app is that we now have the capability to send our users in-app messages! 

A Message Inbox has been added to the Menu page so users can access messages from RPR. For example, we might send an in-app message informing members that new Market Trends are available for the month. The member can dismiss the in-app message and view the information later in their Message Inbox.

This new capability is powered by Iterable, the software RPR uses for marketing communications.

Search

• The map pins have been tweaked to make the price easier to see. The price is shown in a white oval below the map pin (but still attached to the pin).
  
  
• We have made the following aesthetic changes to the search filters:
  • The filter count, which shows how many filters have been applied, now shows against an orange background.
  • Dividers have been added to the Property Types and Listing Statuses rows.
  • Beds and Baths now have Min/Max fields instead of buttons. This change was based on observations made during usability testing.
  • Min/Max fields are highlighted when in use.
