Design and editing

A website that looks like your agency, and that you can edit.

Start from a proven design or commission a bespoke one. Either way, every page is yours to change, without calling a developer.

Design

Design that starts from your brand.

Each Realist site begins from a design that has already been tested on real agencies: Modern Luxury, Modern Tech, Heritage or one of their colourways. Your logo, colours and fonts go on top. If you want something that is entirely yours, a bespoke design is part of the setup.

  • Colours and fonts set once and used everywhere
  • Designed for phones first, where most visitors are
  • Fast pages with fonts served from your own site

Editing

Change any page yourself, in minutes.

Pages are built from blocks in the WordPress editor. Move a section, change a photo, add a page about a new branch. Property blocks such as search, featured listings, maps, forms and testimonials sit alongside the ordinary text and image blocks, and look in the editor as they will on the site.

  • More than twenty property blocks, ready to place
  • Text that fills itself from a listing’s details
  • Styles that keep every page on brand

Pages

The pages agencies need, ready made.

Team pages for each person in the office, area guides with the properties in that area, developments with their available units, and a testimonials slider. Each one is edited the same way as the rest of the site.

  • Team members with photos, roles and contact details
  • Area guides that show the listings in that area
  • Your logo on the login screen and dashboard

Questions

Common questions.

Do we need to know WordPress?

No. If you can edit a document, you can edit a Realist page. We show you how at launch, and the parts you are likely to change most are set up so they are hard to break.

Can you match our current branding?

Yes. Your logo, colours and fonts go into the design at setup. If your brand is changing, launching the website is a good moment to do it.

Can we have a completely bespoke design?

Yes. A bespoke design is priced into the setup fee rather than the monthly fee, so you pay for it once.

Who can change what?

Administrators can change everything. Staff with the Agent role can edit listings, leads and pages, but cannot change settings, users or plugins.
