I will create a real estate IDX website with MLS listings for realtors

About this gig

Get a fast, mobile-friendly real estate IDX website with live MLS listings, map search, and lead capture built for realtors, brokers, and small agencies.

What you get

  • A custom real estate IDX website that pulls live MLS listings into your own domain, so buyers search your site instead of a portal.
  • IDX integration via a vendor feed you already have or one I help you set up (IDX Broker, iHomefinder, Realtyna, RESO Web API, or a regional RETS/RESO feed).
  • A property search page with map view, filters for price, beds, baths, square footage, property type, and neighborhood/zip.
  • Individual listing detail pages with photo galleries, descriptions, key facts, mortgage estimate, and a contact-the-agent form.
  • Lead capture that pushes inquiries to your email and (on higher tiers) your CRM — Follow Up Boss, kvCORE, LionDesk, or HubSpot.
  • Saved searches and favorites so registered buyers come back (gated lead registration where your MLS rules allow it).
  • A clean homepage with your branding, headshot, market areas, featured/sold listings, and clear calls to action.
  • Standard pages: About, Communities/Neighborhoods, Buyers, Sellers, Testimonials, Contact.
  • Mobile-responsive design tested on phones and tablets, where most of your buyer traffic lives.
  • On-page SEO setup: title tags, meta descriptions, schema markup for real estate, XML sitemap, and Google Search Console + Analytics connected.
  • Fast hosting setup, SSL/HTTPS, and a basic privacy policy and required MLS/IDX disclaimer placement.
  • A short training walkthrough so you can edit text, add blog posts, and manage featured listings yourself.

How it works

  1. Discovery: You tell me your brokerage, market area, MLS/board, and whether you already have an IDX feed (IDX Broker, iHomefinder, etc.). We confirm what your MLS allows for display and lead registration.
  2. Setup access: You share domain, hosting (or I provision it), branding assets, headshot, bio, and IDX/MLS credentials or vendor account.
  3. Build: I design the homepage and core pages, wire in the IDX search, map, and listing detail templates, and apply your branding.
  4. Lead + CRM wiring: I connect the contact and registration forms to your email and CRM, then test that a real inquiry lands where it should.
  5. SEO + tracking: I add title tags, meta descriptions, real estate schema, the sitemap, and connect Analytics and Search Console.
  6. Review: You get a staging link to click through every page and search on desktop and mobile. We do the included revisions.
  7. Launch + handoff: I point the domain, verify SSL and the required IDX disclaimers, then give you a short training video and a quick-reference doc.

Why choose this

I build IDX websites specifically for real estate agents, not generic brochure sites with a listings widget bolted on. That means the search feels native, the MLS disclaimers and display rules are handled correctly, and the lead path actually works the first time. I test every feed against the real MLS data so you do not launch with broken photos or stale listings. The site is built to be fast and mobile-first, because a slow listing page is a lost lead. And I keep the scope honest: IDX feeds come from your MLS or a third-party vendor (IDX Broker, iHomefinder, Realtyna, RESO Web API), and I tell you up front what your board permits before we build — no surprises about registration gating, refresh intervals, or which fields you can show.

Who it is for / use cases

This service is for people who sell residential real estate and need their own searchable site:

  • Individual realtors and buyer's agents who want listings on their own domain instead of sending clients to Zillow.
  • Listing agents and teams who want featured-listing and sold-listing showcases plus neighborhood landing pages.
  • Small brokerages that need an agent roster, office branding, and a shared IDX search.
  • New agents launching their first professional real estate website with lead capture.
  • Niche specialists — luxury, waterfront, condos, new construction, relocation, 55+ communities — who want SEO-targeted community pages.
  • Agents switching from a templated platform who want a faster, better-ranking site they actually control.

Common goals: rank for "[your city] homes for sale," capture buyer leads with saved searches, and feed those leads straight into your CRM.

FAQ

Q: Do I need my own MLS or IDX feed? You need IDX access from your MLS or board, usually delivered through a vendor like IDX Broker, iHomefinder, or a RESO Web API feed. If you do not have one yet, I help you choose and set one up during discovery.

Q: Will the listings be live and update automatically? Yes. The site pulls from your IDX/MLS feed and refreshes on the vendor's schedule (commonly every few hours), so new listings, price changes, and sold status stay current without manual work.

Q: Can buyers search by map, price, and neighborhood? Yes. Standard and Premium include a map view plus filters for price, beds, baths, square footage, property type, and area, and Premium adds saved searches.

Q: Does it connect to my CRM? Standard and Premium connect to one CRM such as Follow Up Boss, kvCORE, LionDesk, or HubSpot. Premium adds lead routing and basic automations. Basic sends leads to your email.

Q: Will my site show up on Google? I set up on-page SEO, real estate schema, a sitemap, and Search Console so your pages can rank. Premium adds local SEO and community pages targeting searches like "homes for sale in [neighborhood]." Ranking still takes time and ongoing content.

Q: Is the website mobile-friendly? Yes. Every page and the listing search are responsive and tested on phones and tablets, since most buyers browse listings on mobile.

Q: Can I edit the site myself after launch? Yes. You can edit text, add blog posts, and manage featured listings. I include a training walkthrough and a quick-reference guide at handoff.

Q: What do you need from me to start? Your domain, branding and headshot, bio, market area, and your MLS/IDX vendor credentials. If anything is missing, I will tell you exactly what to request from your board or vendor.

    The IDX feed pulled in our local MLS listings without a single hiccup, and the map search works exactly like the big brokerage sites. As a realtor I've finally got a site that actually generates leads instead of just sitting there.

    Solid IDX integration with our regional MLS. The saved-search and email-alert feature for buyers is great. I had to ask a couple times to get the mobile layout right, but he sorted it out and it looks sharp now.

    He set up the entire IDX search, the featured listings carousel, and lead forms, then walked me through how to manage everything myself. My open house inquiries have noticeably gone up since launch.

    The IDX listings work and the site looks decent. Setup took longer than I expected because of some delays getting my MLS credentials approved on the back end, though to be fair part of that was on my board's side. Functional in the end.

    The MLS sync is rock solid and updates throughout the day. Buyers can filter by price, beds, neighborhood, school district, everything. This is exactly the real estate website I'd been trying to find for two years.

    Listings refresh automatically and the property detail pages look clean and professional. Took about a week from start to finish and he kept me updated the whole way.

    Good value for a working agent. The home search and listing pages render quickly and the design is modern. Communication was responsive even with the time difference.

    I'm a broker with a small team and needed something that could show our active listings plus the full MLS database. He delivered a fast, searchable site with agent profile pages and a lead capture form that ties straight into my CRM. Couldn't be happier.
