Top 25 Real Estate Agent Websites RANKED (+ Tips & Tools)

Have you ever wondered how your website stacks up against the top 25 agents on the Real Trends 500? Well, wonder no more. In this updated article, we ranked the real estate agent websites of the top agents (by volume) in the country. We also give you the best tools and resources to build or improve your website in 2023.

Our Top Picks for the Best Real Estate Agent Websites for 2023

After weighing our own subjective preferences for layout and design with more objective quality measures like page loading speed and domain authority, we came up with our top picks for the best real estate agent websites for 2023.

Best Layout & Design: Tim Allen Properties

Of all the real estate agent websites we tested, we thought Tim Allen’s had the best overall layout and design. The site is a perfect example of just how crucial choosing the right font is for your website. Almost every site we looked at had lush drone videos, but the font choices never quite worked. Tim Allen’s site perfectly meshes great visuals with great typography.

Runner-up: Jade Mills

Since we had an extremely difficult time choosing the best layout and design among real estate agent websites, we decided to also include Jade Mill’s site as a runner-up. Jade’s site has the same flawless layout and design, with a slightly different aesthetic. Both scream luxury, but in different ways. Which one do you think is better? Let us know in the comments.

Best Personal Branding Website: Susan Breitenbach

While personal branding is not technically part of website design, the imagery an agent chooses to represent themselves and their personal brand play a significant role in great web design. While most sites went with lush drone videos of beaches and mansions, Susan Breitenbach chose a friendly picture of herself on the beach. Agents are selling their personal brand, not houses—a crucial difference many Realtors choose to ignore.

Runner-up: Sandro Dazzan

Another almost perfect mix of gorgeous imagery and beautiful typography, Sandro Dazzan also puts his personal brand front and center on his website. While the majority of the agents on our list featured ethereal drone videos on their image slider, we thought Sandro’s were especially lovely, and he leads right into his bio and headshot from there.

Fastest Loading Time (Mobile & Desktop): Tracy Campion

While there were some stylistic choices on Tracy Campion’s website we would have done differently, her site was the fastest loading website by far, scoring an almost perfect 91 out of 100 on Google’s PageSpeed Insights Tool on desktop, and a solid 65 on mobile.

Bonus: Create Your Own (Affordable) Beautifully Designed Real Estate Agent Website

Layout and design: Excellent

Here’s the truth: Competition for leads online will only get fiercer in 2023. That means you need a great-looking real estate website if you want to have the slightest chance of dominating your farm area this year. 

Luckily, you don’t need to spend a ton of money to get one. AgentFire starts you off with gorgeous designs and lets you build a customized tech stack so you never pay for features you don’t need. When you’re ready to upgrade, you can pick and choose only the features you need to scale your business—home valuation landing pages, blog page, logo design, clickmaps, and more. 

Sure, there are lots of other web designers to choose from, but with over 500 verified 5-star reviews and an average rating of 4.9 on Facebook and Google, it’s clear that Realtors who choose AgentFire never look back.

Real Trends + Our Rankings (From Highest to Lowest)

1. Ben Caballero: 4.1 (out of 5)

Ben Cabellero’s homeusa.com website is clean, attractive, and gets the job done. Since this site is likely targeting developers just as much as it’s targeting homebuyers, it does feel a bit more corporate than other brokerage sites. Slow loading times on both mobile and desktop brought the overall score down.

2. Christian Angle: 4.4 (out of 5)

Since he’s a luxury broker, Christian Angle’s website was a little more polished and attractive than homeusa.com. It also loaded faster and had search features more prominently displayed on the home page. The “call us” and “inquire” buttons at the bottom of the mobile view were a nice touch.

3. Ralph Harvey: 4.3 (out of 5)

Ralph Harvey’s website is dedicated entirely to getting listings, so it does not have any of the usual bells and whistles that other agent’s sites have. It won’t win any design awards, but it gets the job done well enough to propel Harvey into the third spot for agents by volume.

4. Andrew Ernemann: 4.6 (out of 5)

Unlike many of the real estate agent websites of the Real Trends Top 25, Aspen luxury broker Andrew Ernemann’s website also loaded fast on desktop. The mobile loading time could improve, but it was still better than most other sites on the list.

5. Craig Morris: 4.5 (out of 5)

Craig Morris’ website won’t win any design awards, but it looks good and gets the job done well. Loading time was fast on desktop, but slowed down considerably on mobile. This is something Realtors need to be aware of as Google changes their algorithm to favor mobile content.

6. Jade Mills: 4.9 (Runner-up, Best Layout & Design)

Our pick for the best-designed real estate agent website of 2023, the Jade Mills site is exactly what you would expect from one of the top luxury brokers in Beverly Hills. It just oozes luxury and prestige, but still manages to offer site visitors easy access to what they’re looking for. The only issue we found with this otherwise perfect website was slow loading time on mobile. While this is probably not going to lead to fewer closed deals for Jade, it is something her web designer should work on improving as mobile-first design becomes more common.

7. Carrie Wells: 4.8 (out of 5)

Another beautifully designed website from a broker in Aspen, Carrie Well’s website scored high in the layout and design category but fell slightly behind with a slower mobile loading time and lower Domain Authority. More proof that mobile optimization should be a primary focus for real estate website designers in 2023.

8. Tracy Campion: 4.7 (out of 5)

While we love the vintage elements of Tracy’s branding that made their way into her website’s design, it did feel slightly cluttered and not quite as put together as some of the other sites on the list. For example, the logo is a little bit blurry, and the mobile layout seemed to compress the logo horizontally on our Android test device. That said, Tracy’s website was one of the only sites to have a fast mobile loading time.

9. Dana Koch: 4.6 (out of 5)

Dana Koch is a new breed (or old breed?) of agent who does not have a website. Instead, we decided to grade Corcoran’s website. As you might expect from a luxury brokerage that cut its teeth in 1980s Manhattan, it’s pretty nice. Surprisingly though, Corcoran’s site was slow to load on both desktop and mobile.

10. David Roberts: 4.6 (out of 5)

David Roberts’ website is nice although a little generic-looking. The drone videos on the image slider are gorgeous, but considering just how expensive the properties they sell are, we would love to see a refresh to make the site feel a bit more luxurious. That said, the site had one of the fastest loading times on the list on both desktop and mobile, so maybe simple is better?
