Compare Properties

FW Real Estate tutorial for WordPress

The Compare Properties addon lets visitors select multiple listings and view them side-by-side in a structured comparison table. Fields are aligned in rows so differences in price, area, bedrooms, and other attributes stand out at a glance.

How It Works on the Frontend

Once the addon is active, a Compare checkbox or button appears on each property card in the listing view. Visitors tick the properties they want to evaluate — typically between two and four — then click the Compare action to open the full comparison table.

The comparison table displays all standard property fields and any custom fields you have configured, with one column per selected property. Where a property has no value for a given field, the cell shows a dash or is hidden, depending on your active design template.

The visitor's selection is stored in the browser session using a cookie, so chosen properties remain selected as the visitor navigates between listing pages within the same visit.

Settings

This addon has no configurable settings. The compare controls appear automatically on listing pages as soon as the addon is enabled. The maximum number of properties that can be compared at once — typically three or four — is determined by your active design template's layout.

Use Cases

  • Buyer decision support — a visitor shortlists several apartments and compares price, area, bedrooms, and amenities in one table before contacting an agent.
  • Rental platforms — help tenants evaluate properties on price, location, and other key criteria side-by-side.

To install this addon, open the Add-ons panel inside FW Real Estate. See Getting Started → Add-ons for details on free addons, paid addons, and site verification.
