Developer management
The developer book your whole team works from.
Who to call at a developer usually lives in one realtor's phone, and leaves with them. Key Deal keeps one row per developer for the whole agency: the people in the order you call them, the groups, the portals and what was agreed, all for the team and never on the public site.

For the developer's people
People at a developer keep their projects' prices, plans and units current, through the agency's approval when it is switched on.
Contacts in the order you call them
Every person at a developer is kept with their role and their place in the call order, so a new realtor knows who to ring first. Owners and admins keep the list; every member reads it.
- Roles from a shared list, plus your agency's own
- WhatsApp opens on "Hi Imran, this is Sara from your agency, about Creek Gate"
- Developers that sell through a master agency show that agency's people
- Download the whole book as Excel to share inside the agency
- Switch off realtors' access to the contacts if your agency prefers

Everything the team needs from a developer
Beside the people, each developer keeps what the team reaches for during a deal. It shows on the developer's page and in the team box on each of their listings, never to a client.
- Types and tiers, to filter the list
- The developer's WhatsApp groups and broker portal, one press away
- Which payment methods they accept, including payment links and crypto
- Their availability sheet, as a link or a PDF, with the date it was last replaced
- Profile PDF, documents and links, and the registration number from the official register

Agreed commissions and meeting notes
Record the commission each developer pays, per project or as their standard rate, with the dates it applies. Owners and admins also keep a dated log of meeting notes that only they can read.
- A percentage or a fixed amount, valid from and until the dates you set
- The agreed commission shown on each listing it applies to
- Excel and PDF of every commission, marked confidential
- Realtors can read commissions, or you can switch that off
- Notes signed with the writer's name and marked when edited
- Sara82%
- Khalid64%
- Mona41%
A login for the developer's own people
Invite people at a developer by email or with a link, which you can limit to their company's email domain. They keep their company's listings at your agency current from their own dashboard, and never see your team, your clients or your private listings.
- Prices, payment plans, unit types, handover and status, photos and documents
- Their changes to a live listing wait for your approval, or go straight in when you switch approval off
- They suggest their company profile and EOI guides; you decide what to use
- They send new projects to you as drafts, and later changes arrive as updates you apply or keep

Questions
What people ask about developer management.
Anything else? Search the help centre or ask us.
Who can add and change developer contacts?
Owners and admins add contacts, import them and change any of them. Every member of the agency reads the book, unless an owner switches off realtors' access to the contacts in Settings. A realtor can still change a contact they added before that rule.
Is any of this shown to clients?
No. Contacts, groups, portals, payment methods, availability sheets, commissions and notes are for the team. They show inside the dashboard and in the team box on a listing page, never on the public website, in the API, the embed or a client's PDF.
What if a developer's name is spelt differently on different listings?
Key Deal matches developer names however they are written, so a developer's contacts show on every listing that names it, whether the listing says the short name or the full company name. You can also give the developer one spelling for the whole agency.
Who can see the agreed commissions?
Owners and admins always see and change them. Realtors read them, read-only, unless an owner switches that off in Settings, in which case they see no commissions anywhere, including the downloads.
What can a developer's login change?
Only the parts of a listing a developer knows best: prices and currencies, unit types, payment plans, handover and sales status, photos, documents, videos, description, amenities and building details. They cannot change a listing's title, location, developer or who can see it, and they never see private listings.
Can Claude keep the developer book?
Yes. Through the connector an owner or admin can add, change and import developer contacts, update a developer's details and record commissions, and every member can ask who to call or what was agreed.
