Introducing GURU’s Configurable Tabs Feature: A Smarter Way to Showcase Properties

In today’s competitive economic development landscape, how you present available properties matters just as much as the properties themselves. Prospects don’t want to dig. They want clarity, speed, and relevance.

That’s exactly what GURU’s new Configurable Tabs feature delivers.

A More Intuitive Way to Explore Opportunities

GURU’s Configurable Tabs transform how users interact with property data by organizing listings into customizable, prefiltered tabs. Instead of asking your most important web visitors to scroll through long, unfocused lists, you can provide your prospects with simple, one-click navigation to the properties that matter most to them.

Whether it’s:

  • Industrial vs. commercial vs. office
  • Target industry sectors
  • Rail-served properties
  • Certified or shovel-ready locations
  • Region-specific sites

…you can guide users directly to the right properties—instantly.

Built for Strategy, Not Just Display

The Configurable Tabs feature isn’t just about organization. It’s about intentional storytelling.

With fully customizable tabs, GURU users can:

  • Highlight priority properties in groups
  • Segment listings by target industries
  • Align property presentation with marketing campaigns
  • Create a more curated, user-friendly experience

This means less time searching and more time evaluating.

Designed Around Your Users

Every community and organization has different priorities. That’s why Configurable Tabs are completely configurable by the GURU user.

You control:

  • Which properties appear in each tab
  • How tabs are labeled
  • The filtering logic behind each category

The result? A tailored experience that reflects your strategy and speaks directly to your audience.
