Real estate websites built around how people look for homes

Short answer

I design and build custom websites for real estate agencies, planned around how buyers and sellers actually look: browsing homes by type, comparing floorplans on a phone, and deciding who to trust with a sale. Sunbright Investment’s agency website is live and shows the approach. You get one fixed price in writing before work starts.

No technical brief needed. Bring your current site, or a list of what is not working.

Sunbright Investment: a live agency website

Sunbright Investment (SUNBRIGHT INVESTMENT PTY LTD) is a real estate agency selling new and established homes. I designed and built its website, live at sunbrightinvest.com.au since October 2026.

Live at sunbrightinvest.com.au. Property details come from builder brochures the agency supplied. House images on the site are builder-brochure illustrations, labelled as such on the site.

What the site includes

  • Property search across house-and-land packages and development collections
  • Property pages with image galleries and floorplans
  • A dedicated selling journey for owners
  • The agency’s story
  • Phone-first navigation and reduced-motion support

Property details come from builder brochures the agency supplied. The site is new, so no enquiry, traffic or sales results are claimed.

Built around buyers and sellers

An agency website serves different people looking for different things. Each gets its own path instead of one long list.

Who visits a real estate agency website, what they are trying to do, and what the website gives them.

What a real estate website build includes

Each build is scoped to how your agency sells. These are the parts most agency websites need.

  • Property search and listing pages

    Homes grouped the way you sell them, so buyers can narrow a search quickly.

  • Property pages that answer questions

    Photos, floorplans and key details in one place, readable on a phone.

  • A selling journey

    A separate path for owners thinking of selling, with its own next step.

  • Your agency’s story

    Who you are and how you work, so people know who they are dealing with.

  • Where property details come from

    Agreed during scoping: who adds and updates listings, and how. On Sunbright Investment, details come from builder brochures the agency supplied.

  • Search basics and handover

    Titles, descriptions, structured data and a sitemap, then a written handover your team can follow.

Adding 3D, AI or property management later

A website can stay simple. If you need more, each of these pages explains one option.

The connected tools, permitted actions, approval points, and escalation rules are agreed in writing before access is enabled. Sensitive actions stay behind human approval unless a lower-risk exception is explicitly approved.

How a website project runs

Every stage is agreed in writing before it starts.

  1. Send a brief or book a review

    Share your current site or what is not working. We look at who visits and where they get stuck.

  2. Fixed price in writing

    Pages, property details, features, exclusions and timing, agreed before any build work.

  3. Design, then build

    You see the design first, then a working preview on your own phone.

  4. Launch and handover

    Checked on the live site, then written notes on updating listings and pages.

What a real estate website costs

Agency websites range from templates to custom builds with property search, so published prices vary widely. I do not publish a price list. Send a project brief or book a free 15-minute build review, and you get one fixed price in writing before work starts.

The quote lists pages, features, where property details come from, exclusions and timing. Ongoing support is optional and can be cancelled anytime.

Questions to ask any real estate web designer

  • Who owns the website, the domain and the content?
  • Where do listings come from, and who updates them?
  • Can buyers and sellers each find their own next step?
  • How does the site work on a phone?
  • What will it cost each month after launch?

Questions agencies ask before a new website

Do you build websites for agencies selling new homes?

Yes. Sunbright Investment sells new and established homes, and its site groups house-and-land packages and development collections.

Can my team update listings?

Who updates listings, and how, is agreed during scoping and written into the quote. The handover explains each step.

Can the site include a 3D walkthrough?

Yes, where it suits the property. The 3D demo shows what a visitor can explore; it uses a licensed scene, not a client property.

See the 3D property demo

Will the website reply to enquiries automatically?

Not by default. If you want help with enquiries, replies can be drafted in your voice for a person to approve before anything sends.

What agencies automate first

Do you work with agencies outside the Gold Coast?

Yes. I meet agencies in person on the Gold Coast and in Brisbane, and work remotely across Australia and New Zealand.
