Bespoke websites for estate agents who want the leads, not the listings subscription.

1 Week Sites builds bespoke Next.js websites for UK independent estate agents, lettings agents, and small hybrid branches — £1,000 flat, paid upfront, live in seven days, with a full refund within 48 hours if I miss day seven. Most independents are paying £200–£600 a month for a Reapit, Dezrez, or Jupix template website bundled with their CRM — a site that looks identical to every other branch using the same platform. A bespoke build gives you a properly-branded marketing site that ranks on your town name, converts valuation requests, and feeds listings in from your existing CRM via the portal feed you already pay for. Over five years the total sits around £1,300 plus your existing CRM fees. You own the marketing site, the code, the domain, and the brand. Seven days from brief to live.

What an estate-agent-site visitor actually wants

The visitor is usually not browsing listings — they have already done that on Rightmove. They are on your site because they want to know three things: whether to instruct you to sell their own property, whether you cover their exact street, and whether your valuations are honest or theatrical. They want a book-a-valuation button in the header, a clear fee structure (no 'call for a quote' theatre), a recent-sales page with real local streets, and a team page with first-person photos — not stock headshots from the CRM template. Listings search matters but it is not the primary job of the site; the primary job is winning instructions. The best independent agent sites I see are quiet and confident: local, human, priced, and honest about turnaround.

What most estate-agent sites get wrong

• Using the CRM's generic 'portal template' website — looks like every competitor.
• Burying the book-a-valuation CTA below three fold-and-a-half of slider.
• No fee structure published — loses the serious seller who was comparing three agents.
• Stock team photos instead of real, recent headshots of named people.
• No named service area — the visitor cannot tell if you cover their street.
• Listings search slower than Rightmove — so visitors use Rightmove anyway.

What a good estate-agent brief includes

Four things locked on Monday ship the week. One, the exact service area — specific towns or postcode prefixes, not 'Greater London'. Two, fee decision: percentage, fixed-fee, tiered — published or 'valuation required'. Three, team photos and bios for the named agents (headshots taken in the last twelve months, not CRM stock). Four, how listings will land — a direct feed from your existing CRM (Reapit, Dezrez, Jupix, Vebra), an embedded Rightmove widget, or manual for the first month. The brief template sorts the rest.
