You'll find out, if you stay with us, that about any question about 
TYPO3 flexibility has "yes" as an answer.

 From what I understand, you want "custom records" to be displayed in 
the  FrontEnd (FE).

First have a look at the 2500 extensions to TYPO3 in TYPO3 Extension 
Repository(TER): http://typo3.org/extensions/

Looking for "estate" already gives me 3 choices!

Then you can modify any of them or create a brand new with the 
Kickstarter and add ext:auxdataviewer so you can generate easy view to 
your extension.

You can also watch this serie of video:

Look for: Frontend Plugin Development

And my friend, remember to first look at 
http://typo3.org/about/new-to-typo3/ before diving into TYPO3 !

BTW, we don't mind so much about language but we usually answer to 
people using real name in the mailing list. I suggest you change Zenonx 
to something as friendly as us.  :)
