One of the most popular type of business templates out there today is real estate. This niche is very prominent but also lacks from quality templates that are most usually just another WordPress them bundled with a real estate logo. I browsed the web to see which real estate sites stand out and tried to include their best features, simplify them and upgrade to meet usability standards.
I really hope developers who design websites for real estate firms and agents will find this theme usable and as flexible as possible. I will try to mimic code complexity so you will be able to moderate theme files with ease and rather concentrate on content, which really matters. On the other side, theme options panel will allow every rookie WordPress user to set it up in no time.
Planned Unique Theme Features
- Google Maps API integration
- Properties displayed as Post type
- Multi-agent ready
- RSS feed per agent
- Advanced Agent Profile Fields
- Related Properties when browsing single Listing post
- Advanced AJAX search by ZIP (ajax suggest)
- Option to filter listings by categories/tags (price, br, ba, sq ft,…)

Front page concept screenshot bellow will of course evolve through development process, however the idea will stay the same. As this is only concept, some design elements were picked from other sites, however they will change through development process so no worries on stealing other peoples proprietary work.
I hope you’re excited as much as I am and will share some of your own ideas by posting a comment below ;)

i would like to see what the final product looks like. also, keep in mind the search feature should be an add-on from a third party IDX provider.

Maybe a link to IDX provider or any other public search API?
