A design built for your brand
A look built around your market, photos, and voice, not a theme other agents in town already use.
The Problem
Your Listings Get Views but Not Leads
Agent sites rarely fail on looks. They fail on slow search, a sign-up wall at the wrong moment, and inquiries that wait until morning.
01 · Heavy photos
Every listing photo loads at full size on a buyer's phone.
Map search and light photos get tested on mid-range phones before launch.
02 · Early walls
A registration wall blocks the price before buyers see it.
Contact details get asked for when a buyer saves a search or books a showing.
03 · Portal leakage
Buyers finish their search on a portal that sells the lead.
IDX listing search keeps buyers browsing homes on your own site.
04 · Slow follow-up
Form leads sit in a shared inbox until tomorrow.
Every lead reaches your CRM with its source, and an agent gets an alert.
A buyer spots your yard sign and pulls up your site on their phone. Every listing photo loads at full size. They tap a home they like and hit a registration wall before they see the price. So they close the tab and search the same address on a portal, where the inquiry goes to whichever agent paid for it. The forms that do reach you sit in a shared inbox until tomorrow. You paid for the site, the sign, and the photos. The portal got the lead.
We start with the lead plan: where buyers register, where sellers ask for a valuation, and which agent gets each inquiry. Then we design search for phones first and keep photos light. We ask for contact details when a buyer saves a search or books a showing. Every lead lands in your CRM with its source, and the right agent gets an alert. The portal can keep its traffic. You keep your leads.
Search that works on phones
Map search, big filter buttons, and light photos, tested on mid-range phones before launch.
Sign-up at the right moment
We ask for an email when a buyer saves a search or favorites a home.
Every lead reaches an agent
Forms and registrations reach your CRM with their source, and an agent gets an alert.

What Our Clients Say
What Clients Say After Launch
Feedback from teams we have built websites for.
We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.
The mobile experience is probably my favourite part of the new site. We had spent a lot of time making sure the desktop version looked right, and the team kept pushing us to think about how everything would actually feel on a phone too. They were right. The navigation is clean, the interactions feel natural, and everything we’ve tested so far works exactly as it should. They also went through the links, forms, integrations, and other details more than once before launch, which I really appreciated. And even after going live, we could still reach out when something came up. The whole process felt friendly, organised, and surprisingly straightforward.
What I appreciate most is that the website is actually easy for us to manage now. We can update content ourselves instead of sending a developer a message every time we need to change something small. They also paid attention to the technical SEO side, which mattered to us because we didn’t want a new website to create problems for the traffic we already had. I’ve probably asked more questions than I should have since launch, but every question has been handled patiently and without any fuss. The team is easy to work with, they explain things clearly, and when we need something changed, they focus on getting it done rather than making the process complicated.

Why Agents Trust Our Website Team
Our real estate website designers also write the code. So the design you approve is the site that ships. These habits shape every build.
Leads before looks
We plan where buyers register and sellers ask for a valuation before we pick a font. A beautiful site that doesn't fill your CRM is just a brochure.
MLS rules built in
We build your MLS display rules in from day one: broker attribution, disclaimers, and refresh timing. Your listing feed stays live instead of getting pulled over a compliance miss.
Fair housing in every page
Area pages describe homes, amenities, and market data, not who should live there. That keeps your copy on the right side of fair housing advertising rules.
Tested where buyers search
We test search and listing pages on mid-range phones, not just a laptop. Buyers browse from the car outside a showing, so that's where the site has to work.
Straight answers first
If your IDX provider's own template covers what you need, we'll tell you before we quote. You shouldn't pay for a custom build you don't need.
Your site moves with you
The domain, hosting, code, and lead data sit in your accounts from day one. If you switch brokerages, your website and contacts come with you.

Good fit
Solo agents leaving a brokerage template
You're on your brokerage's template site, and every inquiry it gets goes into a shared pool instead of your own pipeline.
Teams paying for portal leads
Your team pays a portal for most buyer leads, and you want your own WordPress site to start producing registrations on its own.
Independent brokerages recruiting agents
You run an independent brokerage and need agent pages, lead routing by area, and a recruiting page that makes joining you look easy.
Developers selling new construction
You're selling a new development and need floor plans, unit availability, and a reservation inquiry form before the model home opens.
Agencies with realtor clients
Your agency just signed a realtor or brokerage client and needs a build partner who already knows IDX approvals and CRM routing.
Not a fit
Buyer app with alerts
You want a buyer app with push alerts and saved homes on iOS and Android. Our Real Estate App Development Company service is built for that.
Software for other agents
You're building software to sell to other agents, like a CRM or a property management platform. Our Real Estate Software Development Company page covers it.
Nightly rentals
You rent homes by the night and need direct bookings with calendar sync. Vacation Rental Website Design is the page for hosts.
Portal profile covers you
Your budget is under $1,300, or a portal profile covers you for now. Your IDX provider's template site is a cheaper start, and we'll say so.

A custom agent website starts at $1,300, with IDX search, lead forms, and a CRM connection. Lead capture sites with map search and 8 area pages start at $3,100, and brokerage builds with agent routing start at $6,700. Your IDX provider's fee is separate. You get a fixed quote after a free call.
An agent site takes 3 to 4 weeks, a lead capture site 5 to 7 weeks, and a brokerage site 8 to 12 weeks. MLS approval for your listing feed can take longer than the build. So we start that paperwork in week one and design with sample listings meanwhile.
Saved searches, favorites, new-listing alerts, and showing requests turn searchers into registered buyers. Each gives the visitor a reason to share an email. The best real estate website design asks at that moment, not on the third listing view. For sellers, a valuation request and a recent sales page do the same job.
A custom site wins on a brand no one else in town has, faster search, and smarter lead routing. Placester and Wix cost less up front and can launch within days, which may be enough for a new agent. Once you manage several agents or pay for portal leads, a custom build makes sense.
We run search through your MLS-approved IDX provider or a RESO Web API feed, then design it for thumbs. That means a map view, big filter buttons, and galleries that load as you scroll. We compress listing photos and test on mid-range phones against a 90+ mobile PageSpeed target.
Local depth and speed to lead win, not listing count. Portals show every home, but their inquiries often go to the portal's own agents or paying partners. Your site can answer local questions with area guides, recent sales, and agent pages. Then each inquiry reaches one of your agents the moment it arrives.
Yes, once your MLS approves the feed through your broker. We use the IDX provider you choose or connect a RESO Web API feed directly. We also follow NAR's IDX policy and your MLS rules. That means the listing firm on every listing, required disclaimers, and data refreshed at least every 12 hours.
Yes, every form and registration reaches your CRM with its source tagged. For Follow Up Boss we use its events API, which files each lead as a registration, property inquiry, or seller inquiry. That starts your action plans. Other CRMs take leads by API or email parser, and we test every form before launch.
We describe homes, amenities, commutes, and market data, not who an area suits. The US Fair Housing Act bars ads that state a preference based on race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national origin. Your broker approves the final copy, and we add the Equal Housing Opportunity notice to the footer.
Yes, everything sits in accounts you control from day one: domain, hosting, code, analytics, and every lead in your CRM. If you move to another brokerage, the site moves with you. Each plan includes 30, 60, or 90 days of fixes, and a monthly care plan can cover updates after that.
