Luxury Presence

Agents who want ads, social media and content run for them

$295–$2,495/mo + $2,500–$3,500 setup · 12-month agreement

What it does well

  • Ad spend is paid separately from the plan.

AgentFire

Agents building a neighborhood brand with area guides and market reports

$165–$215/mo + $800–$6,500 design · No long-term contract

Sierra Interactive

Teams that want an IDX site, CRM and dialer on one login

$299.95–$599.95/mo for 1–5 users, paid upfront · 12-month agreement

What it does well
  • The CRM, IDX website and dialer on one login and one invoice.
  • Lead routing to agents and lenders, and action plans that pause when a lead replies.
  • Several site templates, and support for multiple MLS feeds.
  • Ad management services if you want them.
What to watch for
  • Built for teams: much of the product is routing, accountability and team reporting, which a solo agent may not need.
  • Sites are built on Sierra’s templates, such as Pro, Ace, Pinnacle, Exec and Luxury.

Sierra Interactive is a team platform: the website feeds a CRM with routing, action plans and a built-in dialer. It suits teams, from small to large, with several agents working the same pool of leads.

  • Set up in two weeks or less, by Real Geeks’ own count.
What to watch for
  • Sites start from Real Geeks templates, customized to your brand.
  • Much of the value is in lead generation; an agent working referrals will use less of it.

Real Geeks packages the website, the CRM and lead generation together, and sets them up quickly. It suits agents and small teams who want online leads coming in and one company to call about all of it.

Ylopo

Agents and teams buying leads through ads, with AI follow-up

Quote only; reported from $795/mo, plus ad spend · Covered on the demo, not published

What it does well
  • Ads and remarketing on Facebook, Instagram and Google that bring leads to your site and back again.
  • AI text on every plan, and AI voice that qualifies leads and live-transfers them to you from the Growing Team plan up.
  • Priced on the size of your database, not the number of agents.
  • Listing alerts matched to each lead’s behavior, sent from a branded IDX site.
What to watch for
  • Quote only. AgentAdvice reported a starting price of $795/month in 2026, and The Close reported a $1,500 setup fee in 2025.
  • Ad spend is part of the model: its ROI calculator starts from your monthly ad spend.
  • No CRM of its own; Ylopo works alongside the one you already pay for.
  • Contract and setup terms are covered on the demo, not published.

Ylopo is a lead-generation and AI follow-up system first: the site is where its ads send people, and its AI works the leads until they are ready to talk. It suits agents and teams with money set aside for ads and a CRM already in place. Without ad spend, a site-and-CRM platform fits.

Lofty

Teams that want the site, CRM, ads and transactions from one vendor

Quote only; reported from $449/mo + $500 one-time · Monthly or committed term

What it does well
  • An IDX website, CRM, power dialer and transaction management on one platform.
  • Advertising across Google, Facebook and Microsoft, plus Google Local Services Ads.
  • AI agents that respond to leads and book appointments around the clock.
What to watch for
  • Sold through a demo, with no free plan.
  • A wide platform built around lead generation; an agent working referrals may use a small part of it.

DIY builders (Wix, Squarespace)

Agents who don’t need MLS search and want to build the site themselves

Builder $17–$39/mo + IDX from $60/mo · Month to month or annual

What it does well
  • You design and edit everything yourself, any time.
  • Large template libraries and general tools such as blogs and forms.
What to watch for
  • MLS search needs a separate IDX provider, added and paid for on its own.
  • No real estate CRM built in.
  • Design, search setup and upkeep are your time.

A general website builder is the lowest-commitment way to get online, and it works for a simple profile site. Once you want MLS search and lead follow-up, you are adding an IDX provider and a CRM on top.

Wix, Squarespace and WordPress vs Broker & Agent

How to choose a real estate website platform

Choose by where your business comes from. If most of your deals come from your sphere and referrals, you need a site that looks like you, shows up for your area and sends every inquiry into a CRM. If you buy leads, the site is the landing page for your ads, and the ad engine and follow-up speed matter more than the design.

Then check four things on any platform: whether the MLS search runs on your own domain, whether leads land in a CRM automatically, what the agreement is, and what you keep if you leave.

Bottom linePaid leads call for an ad engine; referral business calls for a custom design, MLS search and a CRM, which every Broker & Agent site includes; Growth adds the local pages.

What a real estate website with IDX costs in 2026

Most agent website companies charge a one-time setup or build fee plus a monthly fee that covers hosting and IDX. The differences are in the terms: some run on 12-month agreements, some quote only after a demo, and lead-generation platforms add ad spend on top.

Broker & Agent is $89/month plus a $495 build on Launch, or $129/month plus a $795 build on Growth, month to month, with Workspace Free included. Over a first year that is $1,563 on Launch and $2,343 on Growth. The other companies’ prices are in the table above, and each head to head works out the first year side by side.

Count the costs outside the website too: a separate IDX provider on general builders, a CRM on platforms that don’t include one, and ad spend on lead-generation platforms.

Bottom lineCompare the first year: the setup fee, twelve months and any CRM or IDX fees on top; ours is $1,563 on Launch, with the CRM included.

Do you need a CRM with your website?

Yes, if you want to follow up on the leads your site brings in. A form that emails you is not a follow-up system: you need the contact saved, the home searches attached and a reminder to call.

Luxury Presence, Real Geeks, Sierra Interactive and Lofty include a CRM. AgentFire and Ylopo send leads to one you already use. Every Broker & Agent site comes with Workspace Free: up to 100,000 contacts, a lead inbox where website leads land automatically, transactions and e-signature.

Bottom lineSome platforms include a CRM and some send leads to yours; every Broker & Agent site includes Workspace Free, with transactions and e-signature.

How we chose

We build Broker & Agent Solutions, so we know this category from the inside. Every other company here is described from its own website, with the date we read it.

We started with the website platforms agents ask about most in 2026, and the ones that come up in search and AI answers for “real estate website with IDX”. We kept those that put MLS search on the agent’s own site, and added general website builders as a reference point.

Every price, plan and feature comes from each company’s own website, read on September 29, 2026. Where a company quotes instead of publishing prices, we give the figure an independent review reported, name the review and label it reported. Where we couldn’t confirm something, we left it out.

We didn’t score the list. Each product gets the job it does best, what to watch for and a short verdict, weighing design, IDX, lead follow-up, terms and what you keep if you leave.

Broker & Agent is listed first. Where we have a full head to head with a company, its price line comes from that page and links to it.

Common questions

What is the best real estate website platform with IDX in 2026?

It depends on how you get leads. Luxury Presence suits agents who want their marketing run for them, Sierra Interactive and Real Geeks suit teams that want the site and CRM together, Placester suits building it yourself, and Ylopo suits agents buying leads through ads. For custom design at a published price and no agreement, Broker & Agent is $89/month plus a $495 build, with a free CRM included.

How much does a real estate website with IDX cost?

Most cost a one-time setup or build fee plus a monthly fee that covers hosting and IDX. Broker & Agent is $89/month plus a $495 build on Launch, or $129/month plus $795 on Growth, month to month. Some companies add a 12-month agreement or quote only after a demo, and lead-generation platforms add ad spend. The table above shows each company’s published or reported price.

What is IDX, and do I need it on my website?

IDX puts MLS listings on your website, so buyers search homes on your site instead of on a portal. You need it if you want buyers registering with you for saved searches and alerts, and listing and area pages that can rank for your market. Every Broker & Agent website includes full IDX search on your domain, with listing pages, maps, filters and saved homes.

Which real estate website companies don’t require a contract?

Broker & Agent websites are month to month, and you can cancel anytime; the monthly starts when the site goes live. AgentFire also says it doesn’t do long-term contracts. Luxury Presence plans are 12-month agreements, and Ylopo covers its terms on a demo rather than publishing them. Ask about the agreement before you pay any setup fee.

Can I build a real estate website with IDX myself?

Yes. Placester is a point-and-click builder with IDX built in, and general builders such as Wix or Squarespace work if you add a separate IDX provider. Building it yourself costs your time for design, search setup and upkeep. Broker & Agent doesn’t offer a do-it-yourself builder: we design the site, show you a free, interactive preview before you pay, and make your edits each month.

What is the best real estate website for buying leads with ads?

Ylopo is built for it: ads and remarketing on Facebook, Instagram and Google bring leads to your site, and AI text and voice follow up with them. Luxury Presence manages ads from its Brand plan, and Real Geeks, Sierra Interactive and Lofty offer ad services too. Broker & Agent doesn’t run ads; agents who buy ads from a specialist send those leads into Workspace like any other.

Does a real estate website come with a CRM?

Some do. Luxury Presence, Real Geeks, Sierra Interactive and Lofty include a CRM, while AgentFire and Ylopo send leads to one you already use. Every Broker & Agent website comes with Workspace Free: up to 100,000 contacts, a lead inbox where site leads land automatically, pipeline, automations, transactions and e-signature. Workspace Pro adds the full AI assistant and Studio’s design tools for $59/month with a website.

Can I move my website to Broker & Agent?

Yes. We build a free preview of your new site first, move your domain on launch day, and help you bring your contacts into Workspace. If you are on an agreement elsewhere, start the build a few weeks before it ends so there is no gap between sites.
