"A real estate investment decision is too important for the website to be the barrier."
— Raíces & Horizontes
Why a real estate website thinks about accessibility
Most real estate websites are designed for an ideal user: perfect vision, steady hand, no eye strain, no distractions. That user doesn't always exist. There's the 60-year-old evaluating where to invest their retirement who needs larger text. There's someone with colorblindness who can't distinguish a low-contrast button. There's someone using a screen reader because they can't see the photo gallery, but still needs to understand the property specifications.
None of these people are a rare exception. They're simply part of who's evaluating where to put their capital — and they deserve the same quality of information as any other visitor.
That's why Raíces & Horizontes includes a real accessibility panel, not a decorative one: tools that anyone can activate, whenever they need them, without asking permission or sending us an email.
What you can adjust
The panel lives in a wheelchair icon — in the lower right corner on desktop and in the footer menu on mobile. You can also open it with Alt + A from your keyboard. Any changes you make are saved in your browser for your next visit.
Text size, line height, and spacing
Three levels of magnification so you can read without strain, even property specs with lots of numbers.
High contrast and reduced saturation
For those with low vision or sensitivity to highly saturated colors.
Dyslexia-friendly font
Switches the site's typeface to one designed to reduce confusion between similar letters.
Highlight links and headings
Makes it much easier to distinguish between regular text and clickable links.
Pause animations and large cursor
For those who get dizzy with on-screen movement or have trouble locating the cursor.
Read aloud
The site reads page content aloud (Alt + R) — useful if you don't have an external screen reader installed.
None of these options excludes the others. They combine: someone can activate high contrast, large text, and pause animations all at the same time, and the site remembers that combination each visit.
It doesn't replace human contact
The panel solves digital friction. It doesn't replace an advisor. If at any point in the process — viewing a property, reviewing investment analysis, scheduling a visit — the site's accessibility falls short, there's always the same solution: reach out directly to a real advisor on WhatsApp. No digital tool substitutes for a person explaining something with patience.
✦ In summary
- Real accessibility panel, available on any page of the site
- Opens with the wheelchair icon or with Alt + A
- Text, contrast, motion, voice reading and more — all combinable
- Your preferences save automatically for your next visit
