What should a brokerage look for in a website platform?

A brokerage should look for a website platform that keeps MLS and IDX rules in place, shows agent profiles that stay current, routes leads into the CRM your agents use, runs on your own domain, and lets staff edit safely with drafts and undo. It should also ship clean, fast pages with structured data so Google and AI search can read them.

Questions to ask any platform

  • Who owns the domain, and can the site run on ours?
  • How are MLS attribution and disclaimers kept on listing pages?
  • How do agent profiles and roster changes reach the site?
  • Where do leads go, and is consent recorded with each one?
  • Can staff preview changes and roll back a mistake?
  • What does the HTML look like to Google and AI crawlers?

Compliance is the brokerage's risk

A broker answers for what appears under the brokerage name. That makes compliance the first filter, not a feature to check later. Listings should only show through a licensed display that carries the MLS credit and disclaimers. Lead forms should capture consent before anyone calls or texts. Fair housing applies to every page, including neighborhood and school content. Platforms can help enforce these, but your compliance officer, MLS and attorney have the final word.

How Savvy Studio handles it

Savvy Studio is built for agents, teams and brokerages. IDX display rules, required disclaimers, fair-housing and TCPA opt-in are enforced in the editor. Team sections can follow the team roster so profile changes update the site. Lead forms file leads in the RealSavvy AI CRM and Follow Up Boss with consent recorded. Pages render on our servers as clean HTML with JSON-LD, a sitemap, an llms.txt and FAQPage schema, with nothing for you to patch.

More questions, answered

Can a brokerage site show more than one MLS?

Additional MLS feeds are available as part of the IDX add-on. Each MLS has its own display rules, so ask us about the specific feeds your offices need before you sign.

Can staff edit without a developer?

Yes. Staff can type a change in plain language or open any block and edit its fields. Every change lands in a draft first, and history and undo are built in.

Will the platform keep our MLS disclaimers?

On Savvy Studio, if an edit would remove something the MLS requires, such as attribution or disclaimers, the editor keeps it and explains why.
