foo(properties_url) is being executed in the context of the describe
block and not in the instance of an example being run. For example:

describe FooController do
   it "has access to routing methods here" do
      properties_url
   end

   # it doesn't have access out here though, this fails
   properties_url

   # your example will fail to
  foo(properties_url)
end
