Real estate

Websites for real estate agents and brokerages.

Buyers and sellers look you up to see your listings, so the IDX search has to work and the photos have to load on a phone. We can set up a new site with the search built in, or take over the one you have now.

What we look after

What a real estate website has to do.

Show current listings

Listing search comes from an IDX provider such as IDX Broker or Showcase IDX. An update can break the plugin, so we run a search each time we update the site.

Get leads to the agent

Showing requests and home valuation forms bring in most of your leads. We set each one to send to the agent it's for and set up your domain's mail records so the emails arrive.

Load listing photos fast

A listing page can have dozens of photos. We compress the images and cache the pages so they open quickly on a phone.

Feature your own listings

Your own listings and recent sales can have pages of their own beyond the IDX feed. Send us the details and photos and we build the page.

Give each agent a page

Brokerages need a page for each agent with their listings and contact details. We add and remove agents when you email us.

Cover the neighborhoods

Pages about the towns and neighborhoods you work in help people find you in search. We add them when you send the text and photos.

What we often hear

What usually goes wrong.

  • The listing search stopped loading after an update, and we only found out when a buyer called.
  • Agents who left the brokerage last year still have pages on the site.
  • Showing requests go to one shared inbox and sit there over the weekend.
  • Our listing pages are so slow on a phone that people leave before the photos show up.
A note from Ryan

Listings have to be current

Listing search is where I start on a real estate site, on a phone, watching how long the results take to show up. Then I go through the agent pages, because brokerage sites collect agents who left years ago. Last, I send a showing request and see whose inbox it lands in.

Are your listings and lead forms working?

Send us your site and we'll run a listing search on a phone and send a test through the lead forms, then write back with what we see.

Add-ons for either plan

Common questions

What people ask us.

Yes. Your IDX provider supplies the listing data under its agreement with your MLS, and we keep its plugin or embed running on the site. If it breaks, we fix it or work with the provider until it's back.

Yes. Each agent's page can have its own contact form that goes to that agent, and the general form goes to the office.

Most brokerage sites do. A site with a very large number of listings or a lot of traffic needs more server, and we size a plan to it. Send us the site and we'll tell you which fits.

Yes. Managed + Website builds the site with your IDX search set up in it, then looks after it. New agent pages and featured listings come out of the monthly hour after that.

Hosterr actually has a soul Hosterr is one of the few tech companies that I use that doesn't feel like it's trying to squeeze every last dollar out of you. It works well, easy to switch and the services are fair value for my. A great fit for my marketing agency digital environment
