The Outcome
The new website has made a big difference. Customers now have one place to buy, sell, rent, or let properties. The site is simple to use, quick to load, and full of accurate information. Visitors can easily find what they need and contact the Shanta team directly.
Behind the scenes, things are smoother too. The Shanta team can now manage listings and update content without waiting for technical support. Automated data syncing has cut down admin work and helped keep everything accurate.
Since the launch, engagement and enquiries have increased. Clients have shared positive feedback about how easy the new site is to use.
For our team, this project was a real pleasure. Shanta’s focus on community and service inspired us to create a digital platform that truly reflects who they are — professional, helpful, and trusted by their clients.
The Brief
Shanta wanted to make life easier for both their team and their customers. They asked us to combine their three websites into one modern, reliable platform. The new site needed to support all areas of the business — from buying and selling to renting and letting — without feeling cluttered or complex.
The project also needed to include live property listings. Customers had to see accurate, real-time updates, and the site had to be fast, easy to navigate, and mobile-friendly.
Key requirements
What we did
We started by bringing all three websites together into one new platform. Using Craft CMS, we built an easy-to-manage website at shantaresidential.co.uk. The system allows the Shanta team to add new properties, edit pages, and post updates without needing technical help.
To make sure property data stayed up to date, we integrated SME Professional and Expert Agent through APIs. This setup syncs property information several times a day, keeping listings accurate and reliable. Customers now see the latest details every time they visit.
We also focused on creating a clean and simple design. The new site is modern, fast, and easy to use. Visitors can search for homes, browse services, and contact the team in just a few clicks.
