I redesigned a luxury real estate agency's website. Here's what most property sites get wrong;
Most real estate websites look like they were built in 2014 and never touched again. Cluttered listings. Stock photos of smiling families. A colour palette that says "we have no idea what we stand for."
But when you're selling £8M penthouses, your website is the first showing. It has to feel as premium as the property.
Here's what I focused on for this build:
Typography first: Cormorant Garamond for display, Inter for body. That serif/sans pairing signals luxury without screaming it.
Restraint over decoration: No gradients, no carousels, no stock photo hero. Just confident negative space, a property card with real specificity, and a marquee that communicates market coverage instantly.
The "off-market" angle: High-net-worth buyers don't want to browse Rightmove. They want access. So the messaging leads with exclusivity and the design reinforces it.
The result: a site that feels like it belongs next to Savills or Knight Frank, not like a WordPress template from ThemeForest.
If you run a property business and your website doesn't match the quality of what you sell, that's a conversion problem. DM me.
This is wild to me!
I have worked so hard to build this profile and it just goes to show that you really do get out what you put in. Work has really picked up since I worked on my discovery score and the right clients seem to be finding their way to me. Couldn't be happier.
Congrats on Top 1% — that's huge! 193 is wild. If you don't mind sharing, what moved the needle most for your discovery score? Was it profile completion, case studies, or just consistent posting? Trying to build mine from scratch right now.
