How do property listing posts handle high-res photo galleries?

VeloCMS's TipTap editor includes a Gallery block that accepts bulk image uploads. Drop 20–50 high-res JPEGs or PNGs — they upload to Cloudflare R2 (zero egress fees), auto-convert to WebP thumbnails for fast loading, and display in a full-screen lightbox on click. Images lazy-load below the fold, so even a 40-photo listing post scores sub-1s LCP. The original full-resolution files are always stored; the WebP thumbnails serve for browsing, the originals serve for the lightbox view. Sold listings keep their photos permanently — your portfolio grows with every deal you close.

Why is Curator the recommended theme for agents, and when does Tropicalia fit better?

Curator was designed for creators and agencies with a portfolio-first aesthetic — clean card layouts, generous white space, high-contrast typography, and image-forward presentation that makes listing photography look intentional rather than functional. It signals 'premium agent' rather than 'mass-market portal.' Tropicalia is the better fit when your market is vacation rentals, short-term luxury villas, or coastal resort properties — it has a warm-light, resort aesthetic with sun-toned accents and a layout that feels immediately right for a Tulum casita or a Key West cottage listing. Both themes are free on every plan.

How do paid off-market listing tiers work with BYOK Stripe?

In Admin → Settings → Membership, connect your own Stripe account via OAuth. Create a membership tier — give it a name like 'Off-Market Early Access,' set a price ($5–50/month is typical), and pick a billing interval. Any post or page in VeloCMS can be gated to that tier: pocket listings, coming-soon previews, estate sale announcements, or your full comparable-sales database. When a buyer visits a gated post, they see a paywall with a Stripe Checkout button (your Stripe account, your branding). After subscribing they get member login access. VeloCMS charges 0% platform fee — the only cut is Stripe's 2.9% + $0.30.

Can I import my brokerage's CRM contact list to VeloCMS members?

Yes, via CSV import. Export your contacts from Follow Up Boss, LionDesk, kvCORE, or any MLS-integrated CRM as a CSV with at minimum an email column. In Admin → Members → Import, upload the CSV — VeloCMS maps columns and creates member records. Imported members are flagged as 'imported' rather than 'subscribed via signup,' so you can segment them separately if needed. You should get explicit re-confirmation from imported contacts before sending newsletter blasts — most agents do this with a welcome email ('I'm moving my market updates to my own site — confirm below to stay on my list').

How does VeloCMS rank for '{neighborhood} real estate agent' searches?

Domain authority for location-specific real estate queries builds through volume and relevance of published content. Each market commentary post (neighborhood guide, quarterly market update, zoning analysis) is a standalone page indexed under your domain with the neighborhood name in the URL, title, and content. Over 12 months of weekly posts, Google's crawlers see your domain as the authoritative source for that neighborhood's real estate content. The JSON-LD Article schema VeloCMS emits on every post marks each piece as content from a real estate expert — this is the structured data signal AI answer engines (ChatGPT Search, Perplexity, Google AIO) use to decide whose market commentary to cite.

Will my listings still appear on Zillow / Realtor.com / Redfin?

Yes — MLS syndication to Zillow, Realtor.com, and Redfin is handled by your MLS or your brokerage's IDX feed, not by your personal website. VeloCMS is your owned publishing surface for your portfolio and market commentary, sitting alongside (not replacing) syndication portals. The listings that appear on Zillow are MLS data pushed by your brokerage's IDX. The listings that appear on VeloCMS are your long-form property posts — richer, more narrative, with full photo galleries, neighborhood context, and your personal analysis. Zillow drives mass eyeballs; your VeloCMS listing posts convert the serious buyers who've already decided they want your specific expertise.

Can my brokerage stop me from running my own site?

Most brokerage agreements restrict agents from advertising listings on personal sites without proper disclaimers (Equal Housing logo, brokerage name) and prohibit poaching brokerage clients via personal platforms. You should check your specific independent contractor agreement before using VeloCMS for active listings. What's generally unrestricted: your personal blog, market commentary, sold portfolio (your own closed transactions), neighborhood guides, general real estate education content, and building a personal email list of prospects. The safest approach when still with a brokerage: use VeloCMS for market commentary and sold portfolio, funnel active listing inquiries to your official brokerage profile.

Does VeloCMS take a cut of my closing commissions?

No. VeloCMS is a publishing platform — it has no involvement in your real estate transactions whatsoever. You pay VeloCMS a flat subscription fee ($0 free, $9/mo Pro, $29/mo Business). For paid membership tiers (off-market listings, premium market reports), VeloCMS charges 0% platform fee on subscription revenue. Stripe's 2.9% + $0.30 is the only transaction cost — there's no percentage of your GCI, no referral fee, no brokerage-style split on anything you sell through the platform.
