Dashboard Tour

The ListHouze dashboard is the first screen you see after logging in, and it is designed to give you a real-time snapshot of your entire business at a glance. Every widget on the dashboard is interactive, customizable, and updated in real time as activity occurs across your account. Whether you are an individual agent tracking listing performance or an agency administrator monitoring team productivity, the dashboard surfaces the metrics and updates that matter most.

This guide walks through every section of the dashboard from top to bottom, explains what each widget displays, and shows you how to customize the layout to match your workflow. The dashboard was completely redesigned in January 2026 with a modular, widget-based architecture that lets you rearrange, resize, and hide any element.

ListHouze Dashboard Tour — Full Walkthrough

Top Navigation Bar

The top navigation bar is a persistent element that remains visible on every page of ListHouze, not just the dashboard. It contains several important controls that you will use frequently.

On the far left, the ListHouze logo serves as a home button — click it from anywhere in the platform to return to your dashboard. Next to the logo, the global search bar allows you to search across listings, leads, contacts, and documentation from a single input field. Type a property address, client name, or keyword and results appear in a dropdown organized by category.

On the right side of the navigation bar, you will find four elements. The notification bell displays a badge count of unread notifications. Click it to open a dropdown showing recent alerts — new lead inquiries, listing status changes, social media post confirmations, and system updates. Below the bell, the quick create button (the "+" icon) opens a dropdown menu with shortcuts to create a new listing, schedule a social post, add a lead, or create a task. Next is the help icon (the "?" symbol) which opens the documentation search overlay and provides a link to the AI support assistant. Finally, your profile avatar in the far right opens a menu with links to your profile settings, account settings, billing, and the sign-out option.

Summary Cards

Directly below the top navigation bar, four summary cards span the full width of the dashboard. These cards provide high-level metrics that give you an immediate sense of your business status. Each card displays a primary number, a comparison to the previous period (shown as a percentage change with a green upward arrow or red downward arrow), and a subtle sparkline chart showing the trend over the last 30 days.

Active Listings — The total number of property listings currently in Active status on your account. This includes listings published on ListHouze and syndicated to your MLS. Draft listings and closed/withdrawn listings are not counted. Click the card to navigate directly to your Listings page filtered to show only active listings.

Total Leads — The number of leads currently in your pipeline across all stages (New, Contacted, Qualified, Showing Scheduled, Offer Made, Under Contract). Closed and Lost leads are excluded from this count. The percentage change compares your current pipeline size to the same period last month. Click the card to open your Lead Dashboard.

Pending Tasks — The count of open tasks assigned to you, including follow-up reminders, document requests, open house preparations, and custom tasks you have created. Overdue tasks are highlighted in the count with a red indicator. Click the card to see your full task list sorted by due date.

Revenue This Month — Your estimated commission revenue for the current calendar month based on closed transactions. This figure is calculated from the sale prices and commission percentages entered on your closed listings. Click the card to open the Revenue report in the Analytics module.

Customize Summary Cards

You can change which metrics appear in the summary cards by clicking the gear icon in the upper-right corner of the summary card row. Available alternatives include New Leads This Week, Listings Views Today, Social Media Engagement, and Showings Scheduled. Choose the four metrics most relevant to your daily workflow.

Activity Feed

The Activity Feed occupies the left column below the summary cards and displays a real-time, chronological stream of events happening across your account. Think of it as a unified timeline that keeps you informed without checking multiple screens.

Each entry in the Activity Feed includes a timestamp, an icon indicating the event type, a brief description, and a link to the relevant item. Common event types include:

  • New Lead — A buyer submitted an inquiry through one of your listings. Click to open the lead detail view.
  • Listing Published — A listing you created went live on ListHouze and began MLS syndication.
  • Social Post Published — An auto-post or scheduled post was successfully published to a connected platform. Click to view the post.
  • Price Change — You or a team member updated the price on a listing.
  • Open House Reminder — An upcoming open house is within 24 hours.
  • Document Signed — A buyer or seller completed an e-signature on a document in the Document Vault.
  • Task Due — A task assigned to you is due today.

The Activity Feed shows the 50 most recent events by default. Scroll to load older entries, or use the filter dropdown at the top of the feed to show only specific event types. You can also mute certain event types if they generate too much noise — for example, some agents mute social post confirmations to keep the feed focused on lead activity.

Quick Actions Panel

The Quick Actions panel sits to the right of the Activity Feed and provides one-click shortcuts to the tasks agents perform most frequently. Each action is represented by a large, clearly labeled button with an icon.

The default Quick Actions include:

  • New Listing — Opens the listing creation wizard.
  • Schedule Post — Opens the social media scheduler with a blank post composer.
  • View Leads — Navigates to the Lead Dashboard Kanban board.
  • Create Task — Opens a task creation form where you can set a title, description, due date, and priority.
  • Generate Report — Opens the report builder with a list of pre-built templates.
  • Open Calendar — Displays the full-screen events calendar.

You can customize which actions appear in this panel by clicking the Customize link at the bottom. Drag actions to reorder them, remove actions you rarely use, and add new ones from the available options list. Your Quick Actions configuration is saved to your account and persists across sessions and devices.

Performance Chart

The Performance Chart is a large, interactive visualization in the center of the dashboard that tracks your key business metrics over time. By default, it displays three data series on a single line chart: Listing Views (total page views across all your active listings), Inquiries (the number of lead inquiries received), and Social Engagement (combined likes, comments, shares, and clicks across all connected social platforms).

The chart header includes a date range selector with preset options (Last 7 Days, Last 30 Days, Last 90 Days, Year to Date, Custom) and a metrics selector that lets you add or remove data series. Available metrics include listing views, unique visitors, inquiries, showings scheduled, offers received, social impressions, social clicks, email opens, and revenue.

Hover over any point on the chart to see a tooltip with the exact values for that date. Click on a data point to drill down into a detailed breakdown — for example, clicking a spike in listing views shows which listings drove the most traffic on that day.

The Performance Chart supports two visualization modes: Line Chart (default) for tracking trends over time, and Bar Chart for comparing discrete time periods. Toggle between them using the chart type buttons in the upper-right corner of the widget.

Recent Leads Table

Below the Performance Chart, the Recent Leads table shows your ten most recently acquired leads in a compact, scannable format. Each row includes the lead's name, email, phone number, the source listing (which property they inquired about), the lead score (displayed as a color-coded badge — green for hot, yellow for warm, red for cold), the pipeline stage, and the date the lead was created.

Click any row to open the full lead detail view, where you can see the lead's complete activity history, send messages, schedule follow-ups, and move them to a different pipeline stage. The table header includes a View All Leads link that navigates to the full Lead Dashboard.

The Recent Leads table updates in real time. When a new inquiry comes in, the table refreshes and the new lead appears at the top with a brief highlight animation to draw your attention. This is particularly useful during high-traffic periods like open houses or after publishing a new listing, when inquiries tend to arrive in clusters.

Enable Desktop Notifications

For immediate lead alerts, enable desktop notifications in Settings > Notifications > Desktop. When a new lead comes in, you will receive a browser notification with the lead's name and source listing, even if you are on a different tab or application. This ensures you never miss a time-sensitive inquiry.

Upcoming Events Calendar

At the bottom of the dashboard, the Upcoming Events calendar displays a week-at-a-glance view of your scheduled events. Events are color-coded by type: blue for open houses, green for showings, orange for follow-up tasks, purple for meetings, and gray for personal events. Each event block shows the time, title, and location (if applicable).

Click any event to see full details, edit the event, or cancel it. Click the + New Event button in the calendar header to create a new event directly from the dashboard. Events created here are synced with your ListHouze task list and, if you have connected a Google Calendar or Outlook Calendar through the integrations panel, they are synced bidirectionally to your external calendar as well.

The calendar view defaults to the current week but can be toggled to show today only, the current month, or a custom date range using the view selector buttons. The month view is particularly useful for planning ahead — seeing all your open houses, showings, and follow-ups laid out across the month helps you identify overbooked days and gaps in your schedule.

Customizing Your Dashboard Layout

One of the most powerful features of the redesigned dashboard is full layout customization. Every widget described above can be rearranged, resized, or hidden to create a dashboard that matches your personal workflow.

To enter customization mode, click the Customize Dashboard button in the upper-right corner of the dashboard page (the grid icon). In customization mode, each widget shows drag handles and resize controls. Drag widgets to reorder them, pull the edges to resize, or click the X button to hide a widget entirely. Hidden widgets can be restored from the Widget Library panel that appears on the right side in customization mode.

The Widget Library also contains additional widgets that are not shown by default, including a Market Trends chart (showing median prices and inventory levels in your service areas), a Commission Tracker (visualizing progress toward annual goals), a Team Leaderboard (for agency accounts), and a Social Media Calendar (a compact view of scheduled posts). Drag any widget from the library onto your dashboard to add it.

When you are finished customizing, click Save Layout. Your configuration is stored in your account and will be consistent across all devices where you log in. You can create up to three saved layouts and switch between them using the layout selector dropdown — for example, you might have one layout optimized for daily lead management and another for end-of-week reporting.

Reset to Default

If you want to start fresh, click the Reset to Default button at the bottom of the Widget Library panel. This restores the standard dashboard layout without affecting your data or settings.
