Let’s just say I’ve seen more than enough ugly real estate websites. On the other hand I’ve seen quite a few really great ones.

Real estate websites should be about the real estate which is buying and selling. The agent should leave their ego out as the the website should not be all about the agent. Okay, you are some what important and should show the potential client what you can do for them, but never forget that it is about the property.

I highly recommend having great photographs of the house, condo, villa, vacant land, or commercial property When someone is going to be moving to a new area the first thing they’ll do is go on the internet and start searching, and looking at various listings. The ones that will catch their eye (besides a great price) is the photography of the property. There’s nothing worse than gray and dingy looking photos.

It’s certainly not required but I would recommend providing information about schools, shopping, activities and other useful information such as police, fire, and hospitals.

Lastly there are some great tools out there to manage your website and listings. So let’s get started!
