An Eye Opening Cost Comparison for Realtors...

In real estate, syndication and an IDX solution are a must-have for your buyers and sellers! However, budget always plays a role in what's decided for your online presence...here's a tip... Point2 Agent Websites

A Professional Membership with Point2 Agent:

$49.95/mo for Syndication, no IDX (extra fees apply), a blog that's not self-hosted and not so user-friendly

__________________________

An IDX Solution, Syndication, "AND" a Self-Hosted Site:

$5/mo for Self-Hosting the Site
$30-$50/mo* for "dsIDXpress" for Blogs
$20/mo for a Standard Membership with Point2 Agent for the syndication

___________________________

With the exception of an *IDX solution that would be out of my price range above, you're looking at around the same monthly cost between Point2 Agent and a mix!

Yeah, but where does all this stop? We all don't make 100K a year!

That's everything you absolutely need for approx. $55/mo...so it stops here...you're getting the strongest foundation you can get and building from there. And there's even free marketing services for capturing viewers in your site, signing up for a newsletter that gets emailed...again, free unless you want to pay for one.

Your IDX, Syndication, and Website are your foundation, and the weaker the foundation, well, it's just the domino effect, you probably "will" spend lots on gimicks to "improve" your online presence and never will fix the problem.

Interesting but I find it confusing because when I clicked on the link you provided there were to many options.

I'm going to take a look at it.

Thanks

James, sorry about that! I always hate to be "partial" and like to provide more than just one, however there is just one when it comes to wordpress and IDX...dsIDXpress...the rest are ones to compare for website platforms because the plugins either are not available or are very limited unliked the dsIDXpress.

Hope that helps clear the confusion James :-)

Nancy, Thanks for presenting all options. I was looking at point2agent and now realize I can get alot more for the same investment. Now all I need to do is figure out what I would get and how I work with it.

Hi Nancy ~ I just signed up for the "professional" Point2 website with IDX and it will cost $110 monthly. It looks like I made a huge mistake. The dsidxpress is a much cheaper and better way to go. Hopefully it is not to late to change!
