Know when your property PDFs have been seen
Sending a listing pack, offer summary, or disclosure document and waiting for a response is a common frustration in real estate. WeTransfer shows you when a PDF has been previewed in the browser, when it has been downloaded, and by whom, so you can follow up at exactly the right moment.
Keep count of who views your transfer
Real estate professionals share high-stakes PDFs every day, from comparative market analyses to contract addenda, and knowing whether a client or counterpart has actually looked at the material changes how you manage the next step. WeTransfer lets recipients open and read a PDF directly in the browser without downloading it, and that preview activity registers as its own engagement signal in your Transfers panel, distinct from a full download event. When you enable download tracking, every access is tied to a verified email address and recorded with a timestamp, giving you a named log of who engaged with each document you sent. For deals involving multiple parties, such as a buyer, their solicitor, and a mortgage broker, you can see each person's activity separately and know exactly where attention has or has not landed. Your PDFs arrive unchanged, with no alterations to layout, resolution, or content.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
Yes. WeTransfer lets recipients preview supported PDFs directly in the browser, and that preview activity is recorded separately from a full download in your Transfers panel. This means you can tell whether a client has looked at a document even if they never downloaded it, giving you a clearer picture of their engagement before you follow up.
When you enable download tracking on a transfer, each access event is tied to the verified email address of the person who opened it, along with a timestamp. If you sent a contract or disclosure PDF to a buyer, their solicitor, and a lender simultaneously, you can see each person's activity as a separate record in the transfer details, so you know exactly who has reviewed the material and who has not.
Tracked downloads allow anyone with the link to access the PDF after verifying their email address, and you receive a notification with their details each time. Restricted downloads go further: you define a specific list of email addresses, and only those people can open the file. Restricted access is useful for confidential documents like offer summaries or client financial profiles where you need to control distribution tightly.
Yes, password protection and access tracking are independent settings you can use together. Adding a password means recipients must enter it before they can reach the file, while tracking records each verified access with a name and timestamp. For sensitive real estate documents this combination gives you both a barrier to casual access and a clear log of who got through.
WeTransfer sends files exactly as uploaded, with no re-encoding or modification at any stage. Floor plans, brochure layouts, contract templates, and disclosure forms all reach recipients in their original condition. Recipients can review the PDF in the browser preview at a slightly lower display resolution, but the file itself downloads at full original quality.
