1. I am looking for an elegant WP theme which must be responsive AND multilingual (English, German, Spanish, Italian) do all those themes above have those functionalities?

   1. Thank you for your comment!

      All themes on this theme collection are responsive and well optimized for smartphones and tablets. And almost all themes are multilingual ready, to make sure if theme is translation and multilingual ready check if it is WPML compatible. WPML is by far the most popular solution to create multilingual websites using WordPress. Like I said, most of these themes are WPML compatible and they clearly state that in their sales pages. If WPML is not mentioned on their page then just move to another theme but most themes does support it.

      Even themes that doesn’t claim to support WPML can be translated using this plugin and I highly recommend it to everyone.

2. HI Airgars – First, thank you for this comprehensive list – great job! I, myself, was sold on the Brooklyn theme – but you mentioned it is not ideal for listings – can you please expand in more detail to this negative? I would like to have a listing page – and I thought the Brooklyn site would be able to support multiple pages – even though it is predominately a one page site…I thought the Listing and Blog pages could be added on as additional pages. Please let me know your thoughts and if you know of live examples of website using Brooklyn with multiple pages. Thank you – appreciate your insight!, Manu

   1. Manu,

      Brooklyn theme does support multiple page setup and there won’t be any issues with it. You can create separate blog, portfolio, various different pages etc. No limits there. The main drawback for this theme that it is not designed as theme for real estate listings. It doesn’t have advanced filtering, ready-made real estate listing pages etc.

      Of course you can create these listings as portfolio items, blog items or even use some real estate plugin but these things aren’t ideal when you can start with theme which is built to support real estate listings and advanced filtering by default.

      Brooklyn is a great theme if you are looking to create business theme but for real estate listings you might have to put some extra effort in it.

      Let me know if this helps.

      1. Thank you for your response, it was helpful.

         I guess my issue with using ‘listing ready’ websites is that they are starting to look typical. I’m looking for something different, hence the brooklyn theme.

         Can you suggest a listings ready theme that has the design elements of something like a brooklyn theme? Also what are you thoughts on the X theme?

         Thanks again, Manu

         1. All themes looks very similar to one to another because they are inspired by popular real estate website there and no one is trying to reinvent the wheel because you can’t sell themes that are completely different from themes and services that are available today. Sometimes creating a completely different theme might become the next big thing but in 999/1000 of the times it doesn’t work that way and developers are not willing to take a risk for that tiny chance to succeed.

            Most modern theme that I can recommend for different listings is Listify theme and you can read more about it here.

            If you want to create a truly custom website you have to either design it yourself or hire an agency that could do it for you. I don’t think that it would be too hard to find some plugin to use with Brooklyn or X-theme. Some tweaking would be required but it would be better than to start with a blank page.

            I am not huge fan of X-theme because it is a multipurpose theme which means that it can be used for everything. But if you are using it for niche market such as Real Estate you will end up using a tiny part of its functionality. However, all those features will be still loaded even tho you are not using them and it will heavily reflect in your website performance. Personally I like niche themes for specific niches with as few scripts included as possible to be sure that it loads fast.

            Reply

      2. Once again, great response. It was right on and agree with you. I have decided against the x theme as per your comments. I am visually stuck on the brooklyn theme and I am in process to make it work with a listing page (working with designer) . Once I am done with the website, I will share it with you. Hopefully you will approve! 🙂 Cheers, Manu

3. Hi, Your list is fabulous! Congratulations..not being experienced myself, I used a web designer for my previous site. I am looking to develop a Rental Property site, with the option of client submissions, payment etc. Also enable comments from tenants to landlords and vice versa. I wish to include the function of downloading all forms..leases etc and signature online. Bespoke order forms for external services..(prop management. Us doing photos/floorplans etc) I really like the look of the WPEstate theme..in your opinion would that work best for my needs?

   Reply

   1. Julie,

      WP Estate is a great choice and it will definitely get the job done. Of course you will still have to do some customizations to implement comments from tenants to landlords and vice versa but since WordPress does have comment form available by default it won’t be a big issue.

      Maybe some other changes might be required but WP Estate is a great theme to start with with great design, functionality and support from developer.

4. Can you add an Action to Call box to keep prospective leads contact info ?

   Reply

   1. The best option for that is to use OptinMonster.com plugin that way you will get much gigher conversation rate and you will also get much more flexibility on how you want to style it.

      If you don’t like plugin solution you can also use theme built in option for that. As you can see in theme demo there is a large phone number section in the upper right corner and you can tweak that section by adding some extra text there or move that section elsewhere in the website where you feel it would fit better.

      WordPress has endless possibilities, so it is up to you what and how you want to use it.

5. I am looking for a rental estate theme where users can subscribe to a membership, open accounts, submit their content to the directory listing, and manage their listings. Any idea? Thanks

   Reply

6. Ralph,

   There are several themes on this collection that does support this functionality by default. For example you can look into Properta, WP Estate, Realocation, vEstate and Real Spaces themes. Paid membership is not a big deal for this type of websites and WordPress in general as you can always use plugins such as Restrict Content Pro to limit access to any type of content on WordPress website no matter which theme do you use. Of course it is going to be so much easier to use a theme with subscription based membership but plugin solution is much more flexible.

   Let me know if you have any other questions related to these themes or WordPress in general.

7. Hi, i am based in the UK and own a sales and letting agency. We use a cloud based system to upload our properties too. This system then uploads these properties based on their status to our website and property portals fo marketing. Do any of these sites support this type of property upload?

   Reply

   1. David,

      Thank you for your question!

      It really depends on how you can get data out of your system. if you can export specifically styled XML file it might be possible to import it back into WordPress by using any of themes listed below. If you want to update data in real time as it is changed in system then you will need to find a way to create a link between your data and WordPress website. Since you are running custom built system which is not built on WordPress then there is almost no chance that you will get synced without spending time on developing this “link” between your platform and website.

      Let me know if you have any other questions about these themes.

8. All of these are beautiful, BUT, I can never understand why non of these offer a search in multiple cities / places?

   Surely you don’t just look in one area? This is why South African sites are way ahead of any of these. Theme designers, please take note. Have a look at property24 – you can search multiple cities or states.

   Reply

   1. Anton,

      Thank you for your feedback.
      Unfortunately, You haven’t looked at this collection close enough. For example themes such as WP Residence and Realocation does support multiple locations. By multiple locations I mean that you can create a global website that includes all countries that there is. If you are not looking to create global website then just use cities or regions. These are custom variables that you can add on your own and you are not limited to default selection. You can implement custom filters for anything, so you can create custom filter that would say: “Unicorns are included: Yes / No.” Or whatever else comes in your mind.

      Most themes with filtering options allow to customize filters as well as add new filters if/when needed.

      Let me know if you have any other question about these or any other WordPress theme listed on Colorlib.

9. Excellent list and lots of information for someone who is looking to build a site for real estate using WordPress. Great collection of themes not only useful to choose from wide range but also someone can take inspiration on how to build theme for real estate site. Thanks for sharing Aigars.

10. My client selected the Realty theme, but is not happy with it (that’s what he gets for ignoring my points). But I think so many themes are looking more and more the same and they all seem to lack that marketing edge. I guess it’s too tall of an order to want to see that kind of level of marketing in a theme built in.

12. Hi Aigars,

    Could you tell me more about regular and extended licenses ?
    Also, as extended license is currently out of my budget, and say my website gets enough traction that I decide to charge users. Do I purchase another license or is there a different pricing model ? And do I have to transfer my database to the new template ?

    Best Wishes,
    Fady

    Reply

    1. Fady,

       Extended license is meant for developers who are looking to build products on top of these themes and then sell them as different product. If you are looking to create a website for your or even your client then regular licence is enough. Even if you are looking to create commercial website you still don’t need extended licence. Like I said, extended licences are for very specific target audience and most likely you don’t need it.

       Let me know if this helps.

13. Hi this site has been such a treasure chest of information and possibilities. Thanks for the epic research. I’m creating a website and it seems like the theme that best suits my needs is the “real homes” theme w/ front end submissions feature . is it possible to find a plugin to add multiple reviews for individual properties. If so which one(s) would you recommend or how else would I best accomplish this feature? Thanks- Mike

    Reply

    1. Mike,

       Unfortunately, there is no section for comments or reviews for Real Homes theme and according to developer he has no plans to implement them in near future either. However, you can always hire someone on oDesk, EnvatoStudio or Freelancer.com that will do this for you. Since WordPress does have this functionality by default it is going to be a very easy task to implement comments. It shouldn’t take skilled developer more than few hours to get this done.
       Otherwise, Real Homes is an outstanding theme, it is also the most popular real estate theme ever released, and you can be sure that you are buying the best theme that there is. Comment section on property pages is a major drawback but no other popular themes has it, so you will still need a someone that could help you with customization.

    1. Sarah,
       Thank you for your question!
       Unfortunately, there is no such theme anywhere on the market because this is a very specific functionality for very specific niche. My suggestion would be to look for some platform which is build for property development as there might be some but they are going to cost much, much more than these $50 worth themes.

       Other options would be to use some membership management or community management plugin and then build property development specific functionality on top of that. This should be relatively easy because there are so many great plugins that will help you to get started and everyone knows WordPress development, so you will be able to hire someone from oDesk or Freelancer.com to make these changes.

       Let me know that you have any other questions about these themes. And sorry that I couldn’t help you with the right theme for you this time.

    I am new to WP, I want to get a domain and start building a website for my real estate office, hosted by godaddy.
    I am currently looking at Real Homes theme because there are more than 6000 buyers. This means this theme must be good.
    My simple requirements are:
    -Chat
    -Translation
    -Blog (updates an feeds social media sites)
    -Real Estate
    -Mortgage
    -Video embedded
    -Social network
    -Fully customization: add more pages, plugins, widgets, etc.
    -Agent page
    -Etc.
    I do both real estate and mortgage brokerage. Can I add Mortgage plugins or widgets or pages for it?
    Is Real Homes theme the best choice for me or you have a better one for me?
    Real Estate and Mortgage brokerage office.
    Thanks Aigars for your prompt response.

       Real Homes theme is popular because it is also the best Real Estate WordPress theme out there.
       Some comments about features you are looking for and are not included by default:

       – Chat – For communication there is contact for under each listing that you can use for communication. For real time chat and communication you can use plugins such as “WP Live Chat Support” it would work as popup and is a really great options to provide instant answers to any questions your visitors might have. There are many other chat/support solutions similar to this one.

       – Mortgage – You means something like mortgage calculator? This functionality is not included in any of above listed themes but it can be easily implemented by using plugins like these.

       Other things such as widgets, customizations options, social network integration, video embeds, blog, agent pages and property listings are available for any theme. Your mentioned Real Homes definitely have everything you would need except my above highlighted things that can be implemented via help from free WordPress plugins.

       Let me know if you have any other question.

       Reply

       1. Thanks Aigars very much for your reply. It looks like the theme has pretty much what we generally need. If I need to add something else, I can download free plugins or widgets. Regarding the customization, how would you range from 1-10? is it near 80% fully customizable theme? I am also looking at Home Land theme, would you recommend it or Real Home? At the bottom of all pages, is there any of your hard coded branding or logo? You were saying I could just add mortgage plugins or widgets to have a site for both Real Estate and Mortgage services right? I don’t see you have theme specifically designed for Mortgage. Can I have godaddy hosting and install your WP theme? Thanks Aigars. B

          1. Brad,

             Both themes has several color pickers included to change color for each and every element that you can see on website. So you can go crazy with color variations as you can use choose between 16 millions color variations. I think it should be enough 🙂
             When it comes to layout, both themes comes with drag & drop page builder that allows to implement any element in any page you want. No limits here.

             It really depends what you mean by Mortgage. There are no mortgage calculators or similar functionality but if you want to promote mortgage service using banners, via dedicated service section, or otherwise promote this service then there is no limitations with that. Use drag and drop page builder to get exactly what you were looking for.

16. Thank you for this extensive review of these themes, I am a complete novice when it comes to creating a website using WordPress. I have study some Lynda lessons and watched some YouTube videos. I am going to try to create my own website using Real Homes. I was just wondering is it difficult to try to create your own WordPress website and I want to do a blog should the blog be separate from the website.

    Reply

    1. Steven,

       If you have studied some basic from Lynda lessons then it shouldn’t e a problem for you to get your website up and running. Also theme comes with detailed documentation that will help you through setup and customization.
       Real Homes theme has its own blog section, so you don’t need a separate website or theme for that. You can mark this sections as news, blog, updates or whatever you want to call it as theme allows to do this kind of customizations.

       Let me know if you have any other questions.

       Sorry for late response. Just returned from vacation.

       1. Yes, you can do that by using Jetpack or other plugin for that as WordPress or any of above listed themes doesn’t have this functionality by default.
       2. Yes, you can integrated it with your local MLS as long as this theme supports plugin called “dsIDXpress”. You will see this clearly stated on theme detail pages for themes that does support this plugin and most of these themes does.

       Sorry again for late response and let me know if you have any further questions.

    1. Search is optional for all of these themes and you need to use it you don’t need it. All specific functionality that you seen for these themes are only optional and you can decide to use or don’t use them at all. You are buying overall design and layout and the rest is customizable via WordPress Customizer, Theme Options and Widget areas.

    1. Daniella,

       I don’t see any reason why Realto theme couldn’t be used for yachts. Wording can be easily changed and the rest of the functionality could remain the same as the only difference is search criteria and content (images, videos, descriptions, features). That would be a really creative use for this theme.

       Let me know if you have any other questions.

       There are over 400 Font Awesome icons integrated in Real Home theme and you can feel free to use any of those icons. Instagram, Tumblr and Youtube are included and you can remove existing services if you don’t need them. So no problems with that.

       Images for this theme is taken from Photodune and Shutterstock and are used for demo purpose and are not included with theme. However, you can purchase theme separately from my above mentioned services or use your own images as slider itself is included with theme but it is going to be empty when you will install theme.

       Let me know if you have any other questions.

    I see that some of these templates you mentioned SEO and others you didn’t. I’m new to WP but I thought all WordPress templates can have an SEO widget or add-on.
    Also, did you research how the property listings were added into these templates? My understanding is that only certain plugins work for each MLS software and that many plugin’s for my MLS are subscriptions – something I am trying to avoid. I want to maintain control over how the listings look and not be tied to a company that could belly up, not to mention that many are expensive!

    I know this is not the clearest comment, like I said I’m new to WP and attempting to make my agent page all by myself.

    Thanks for your work on this guide and any other help is greatly appreciated.

       I mentioned SEO for themes that does their own SEO settings but you can always use plugins such as “WordPress SEO by Yoast”, “All in One SEO Pack” or other plugin. We are using “WordPress SEO by Yoast” for this blog and I can highly recommend it for everyone. It will works with all themes listed above even ones that already have their own SEO settings built-in.

       If you want to get full control over how things are displayed on your website you will have to create every single listing manually and of course there is an option for that. Manually adding listings is going to take a lot of time that’s why most of above listed themes integrates with dsIDXpress plugin that works with most local MLS directories. Of course pricing depends on MLS directory you want to use and that’s entirely up to you.

    1. Agostino,

       Schema and Foundly themes are made as magazine/blog themes and if you want to use them for real estate listing websites you will need to use some plugin for that or heavily modify theme itself. WP Pro Real Estate 3 and LesPaul on the other hand are dedicated property listing themes and you don’t need any plugins. These themes can be still used for a simple blog but I don’t think it would be a wise investment as blog/magazine themes are easier to use and loads faster because they are lighter.

       Let me know if you have any other questions about these themes.

    Thank you for this really informative blog. I am looking to create a maps based web product that could possibly charge users. I looked at a few extended licenses and the prices are pretty expensive. Can you recommend any with a lower price that you would use for this purpose?

    Thank you!

    1. Basically you have two options:

       1. Developer your product from scratch.

       2. Use free or premium GPL licensed theme. That includes every single theme listed on WordPress.org. Here you can find the best examples. There are some 100% GPL licensed themes on ThemeForest and you can find them by searching

       site:https://1.envato.market/c/369282/275988/4415?u=https://themeforest.net/item This item is licensed 100% GPL.

       ThemeForest doesn’t have filtering options to find GPL licensed themes because they don’t like GPL at all and would love to bury this feature as they are losing money on it. They were in talks with Automattic and WordPress community for years before they even introduced this almost invisible feature.

28. I wonder how much time it took for you to create this list. I have tried your approach but it takes days for me. Could you please reveal your secret?

    Reply

    1. It actually takes one whole day to complete list like this. We write unique descriptions to each and every theme and screenshots are also created manually from theme to theme. But it is totally worth to create collections like these because we get up to 20,000 visitors on a single collection. Not all collections becomes very popular and you feel that you have wasted a lot of time and energy but then you remember about all the popular ones 🙂

    Thank you and congratulations for this very complete article.
    I want to build a real estate website for a customer here in France and I was wondering why all the themes company mention dsidxpress in their options? Is it compulsory to install it to make the themes work, or is it only an option ?
    I took a look and the dsidxpress plugin costs $29 a month + installation, I’m ok to buy a full template but I want it to work alone. Does any template works solo ?
    Thanks in advance for your anwser, and best regards,

    1. Julien,

       dsIDXpress plugin and their subscriptions based service is not required to make this themes work It is only optional if you want to pull listings directly from so called MLS directories. If you have no idea what is MLS directories then you absolutely don’t need this plugin and their service. This is for US market specific and there is no such thing in my country and i doubt that there is MLS directories in France.

       All themes will work just fine without this plugin and you will have ability to publish listings manually or allow your users to create their own listings. It is entirely up to you have you structure your website and dsIDXpress is just additional bonus that might help some but most likely not in your case.

       Let me know if this makes things clearer. Thank you!

    1. Tim,

       Thank you for your feedback! Unreal Estate is a really nice theme but I don’t think that it is the best blogging theme out there because it can do much more than that. The thing is that blog is only 1% of what this theme is capable of but you are loading those 99% other percent that slows down your website. If I would look for a blog theme of any kind I would start here instead of using any of themes listed above. The main concern is performance but if you have a decent hosting or don’t care about website performance, then any theme will do the trick for you.

31. Hi,

    I’m starting my career in real estate now as a sales person. I’ve hired a web developer to set up a site for me. He recommended to buy “must see” from “agent evolution”. I’ve bought a few pics that I like to use that would rotate on home page. He has set up the site but the pics don’t cover the entire screen and the site does not look good. I am ready to redo the site. which theme do you recommend that could give me the wow factor, that is capable to show full screen pics and Google street view would be a great option too but not a deal maker!

    Reply

    1. Hey,

       You are looking for a different template just because pics didn’t fit for “Must See” theme by Agent Evolution? If so, you are just trying to make a huge mistake here. Of course my job here would be to recommend you to buy another theme because I will make more money but I am not going to do that. Get a better and higher resolution images and start over with the same template. There are even websites such as these that offers free stock images that you can use for personal and commercial use without restrictions. If designer didn’t know how to use images that you provided just hire another developer/designer on oDesk, Freelancer or other Freelancer websites.

       With approach you have now when you want to switch to another theme just because images didn’t fit you will end up buying all of above listed themes and still won’t get anywhere.

       Let me know if you have any other question.

32. Can I use this theme “Real Homes” that you stated as **Most Popular** as a classifieds theme?

    Reply

    1. Robert,

       It can be used as classified theme as theme does offer free and paid listings by default and you can allow everyone to publish their own listings, publish listings yourself or use listings that are pulled from your local MLS using dsIDXpress plugin.

33. 1. I generally like the home page you recommended showing the usable map of the USA on theme.

    But, I would prefer one that shows the states with the number of properties listed on each while keeping the sort/search function on the homepage as is…little more lively and exciting.

    2. Also, I saw some of the other themes showing Google Maps with properties pinned on the locations (very nice) along with the search function on the homepage. My listings will be nationwide but most of these themes (and maps) look regional specific. Are they or will it show a map of the whole USA once I list my properties?

    3. Can you recommend a theme(s) that have a usable map for nationwide listings and a search function to limit the searches parameters? I do not need Paypal, I will be listing the properties myself.

    Thank you!

    1. Chris,

       1. There is no better ready-made alternative for that. However, it wouldn’t take much time and effort for a skilled WordPress developer to build this functionality on top of this theme.

       2. You can set zoom for these maps, so if you want to show the entire USA you can just zoom out the map and set this zoom by default in Theme Options. These Maps are powered by Google Maps and are very flexible, so no problem using regional specific or country-wide map.

       3. I think I already answered this question with my previous answer. All themes with maps can be zoomed out and this zoom fixed for all visitors to see the entire map without even touching it.

    My website has a properties section but what I am looking for is an option to have a real estate listing post ‘template’ that I can integrate or use with my current WP theme. Is there such an option? I was trying to use WP Listings but it does not integrate well with my theme.

    1. Jason,

       There is very limited selection for a good real estate plugins.The one that you might want to check is this one. The main problem with plugins is that they come with very little styling, so you still have to apply your own styling. If you are not a developer yourself then these listings will look completely different than the rest of your website and that’s never a good thing.

       If my above mentioned plugin doesn’t work for you either then you will have to look for a developer who could help you with that. The best place to start is Upwork. This task is rather easy and any WordPress developer will get the job done for you and it won’t cost you a fortune.

36. Hi there – thanks for the list.

    Which would you recommend for building a property finding site (with a twist!), with a model similar to airbnb? Ie, no agencies – just acting as a middle man between landlords and prospective tenants. I propose to charge tenants, and have no fees for landlords, in order to attract them.

    As such requiring some kind of eCommerce functionality. Also something that looks as classy as airbnb.

       There are only to themes that are worth considering if you are looking for Airbnb style design and functionality. First one is Listify. Both themes uses the same plugins for its functionality which means that both themes are very similar, so all comes down to your personal preference which one you like more.

    I wanted to thank you for writing such an informative article. I am sure over the past year there have been new Real Estate Themes introduced into the market place that you like? I own a real estate brokerage located in Miami, FL and I am in the process of designing my website. I definitely want my site to stand out and separate myself against the competition. I believe a lot of real estate sites today are not user friendly, they are too busy and ultimately distract prospective clients from their overall objective on visiting the site in the first place. I work with majority of investors who are interested in purchasing residential and commercial real estate. I am searching for a classic/minimalist theme for my sophisticated clientele who demand luxury and wanted your feedback on which themes you might suggest?

       Themes that looks minimal yet luxury are Reales WP. Reales WP Is now my favorite theme because it looks more like a web app than just theme.

39. Hi Aigars:

    Thank you for the info that you have shared.
    A few questions here:

    1) I am from oversea and the country that I reside in does not have “MLS”.

    As such if I were to go for Real Homes theme, which contains “MLS” as part of the property specification field, is it possible for me to un-select at the Word press admin area so that the term does not appear in my site, or do I need to engage a Word Press Developer to help me include an option at admin area to un-select/remove this term?

    2) I noticed that Agentpress pro child theme is not listed in your review.

    How would you compare Agentpress pro child theme against Real Homes theme, which would you
    recommend?

    3) One of the benefits of using Agentpress pro child theme, as stated in the link below, is that:

    “…the Listings custom post type is added to the site via the free AgentPress Listings plugin instead of hard coding the custom post type into the theme. This is in accordance with theme design best practice as it allows you to retain your properties data should you switch themes in the future”.

    However in one of your earlier reply you mentioned:

    “…Of course you can create these listings as portfolio items, blog items or even use some real estate plugin but these things aren’t ideal when you can start with theme which is built to support real estate listings and advanced filtering by default”.

    I am confused now whether it is better to use plugin or use a theme which is custom built with real estate listing. Can you clarify?

    What if one day in the future I need to switch theme from a theme which is custom built with real estate listing – eg. Real Homes theme to Reales WP theme, would that mean there will be a lot of problem for me to migrate the real estate listings from old theme to new theme, compared to if I had used Agentpress pro child theme?

    Appreciate your soonest reply.
    Thank you

    1. Choo,

       1. MLS is completely optional for every single theme listed above that even have its support. You are not obligated to use it and most people aren’t using it but it is good to let users know that there is such functionality available. Themes that support MLS needs additional plugin and in your case your setup will be easier as you won’t need to install this plugin.

       2. Agentpress Pro theme is Genesis based Child Theme. If you have used Genesis extensively for other websites then it would be really easy to get started with AgentPress theme. Otherwise there is absolutely no advantages or disadvantages for this theme and it will perform the same as Real Homes or other themes.

       3. There is no “best” solution to use plugins or ready-made real estate themes. If you are going to use AgentPress Pro theme with plugin theoretically you will be able to switch to a new theme. The truth is that this next theme will need to support the same plugin, if not you will either need to develop support or somehow convert all listing to ones that this new theme can support. The same is with ready-made real estate listing themes. Once you decide to switch you are going to have a hard time converting all listings to a new format. In most cases switching to a new theme in very specific niches such as real estate is pain in the arse. It is hundreds of times easier when you change theme for blog, magazine, portfolio or simple corporate website. Your safest bet is to choose the best maintained and most popular theme that will be around for many years to come to be sure that you get the latest updates and functionality. Then you can easily hire a designer which could redesign your website while using existing theme with its functionality. It’s the same process as Facebook, Google and other large websites does. They have never introduced complete overhaul for their websites but instead improves it along the way. These sites looks different now but it’s the same core that was used 10 years ago.

40. Hi Aigars:

    Thank you for your feedback.
    In that case I would prefer to go for a real estate theme which is best maintained and popular.

    Could I get 3-4 theme recommendations from you which fulfill the following criteria:

    1) The theme is very well maintained;

    2) The theme provides strong support (i.e. when I face problem with the theme I could email the theme developer for help and they would reply me promptly, or that the theme developer has a forum that I could post my question/clarify);

    3) The theme is expected to stay for many years to come so that I could get the latest updates and functionality.

    I am a real estate broker in Phoenix, AZ. I have several WP sites setup for real estate that work off the Genesis framework. One of the child themes I am using is Agent Press Pro and another is Winning Agent Pro, both of which I like. I have a 3rd site that I’m considering upgrading to either the Realty, Reales WP or Real Homes theme. My question is do the themes you mention above work off a specific framework such as Genesis or do they have there own framework as part of the theme and Genesis would not be required?

    Please let me know.

    1. Tony,

       Thank you for your question!

       There aren’t any other theme frameworks like Genesis that uses Child Themes so heavily. All other above listed themes such as Realty, Reales WP and Real Homes are standalone WordPress themes. They have their own Theme Options and other functionality included by default and you don’t need to install any Child Themes separately. However, you can create Child Theme as all WordPress themes are compatible with this functionality but this is completely optional and only if you really need to do so.

       Some themes might require some plugins but you will get notified about that and will be guided through installation process as required plugins are already included with theme package and you just have to activate them. It’s even easier than installing Child Theme for Genesis.

       Let me know if you have any further questions about Genesis or any other WordPress themes.

44. Aigars,

    Thank you for your response. One other question, I see a few of these themes are setup to run with dsIDXpress plugin for IDX data. Is this the only IDX vendor supported on these themes? I used to run dsIDXpress plugin on my current Word Press sites but changed it out for our local MLS vendor WP IDX plugin and it works just fine. I just want to be sure that if I purchase one of the themes above, I can run my current WP IDX plugin which in flexMLS IDX Word Press plugin.

    1. Tony,

       Unfortunately, none of above listed themes are compatible with flexMLS IDX plugin and most of them uses dsIDXpress IDX instead. However, flexMLS is widget based and it should work fine with all themes with its default styles. It won’t integrate inside theme and its functionality but it will still work as a standalone widget.

       It depends what you mean by European. Most themes are multilingual and translation ready which means that you can translate them into any language or use it in multiple languages at once. If you want to show map of France or Europe you can easily do that with any theme which have its own map. Most demos showcase US maps because around 80% of sales comes from US and 20% from the the rest of the world. As you can see there is very little market outside US and even more specifically France.

The majority of these themes, though minimal are incredibly bloated (10,000+/90,000+ lines off css minimum) – That’s before stacking on an IDX. Unless that IDX is IDX Broker I guess (runs the listings from on their own servers). Which one would you consider to be the most competitive? -and do any of these themes support HTML5?

       Every single theme with real estate listings have an option to hold submited listings for moderation before they go live. It’s WordPress core functionality and these themes depends on it. Social media logs are not included with any of themes because it is plugin and widget functionality. Each social network has its own official widget that you can use in combination with any theme. If you don’t like those widgets, you can also use free WordPress plugins for that.

       Frontend listing submission is available for most theme as well and my favorite themes are Real Homes, “WP Pro Real Estate 7” and Real Places

       WordPress requires specific cache as it is slow by default but it is possible to speed things up with the right setup. We recommend SiteGround and WP Engine as the best hosting providers for WordPress. They have taken optimization for WordPress seriously. While other hosting providers also advertise that they support WordPress they technically aren’t lying but one thing is to run WordPress another thing is to make it load fast and that’s why there are hosting providers such as SiteGround and WP Engine.

       Real Homes is going to be the right theme for you. You can choose between any currency that there is and also allow users to switch between currencies to provide even better flexibility. You can also use metric system for property size. Theme demo uses sq feet because most theme buyers are from US.

59. Hello Aigars,
    Many of these themes offer mapping with Google or OpenStreetMap. Most IDX plugins have mapping tools of their own. Do IDX plugins map into the Google and OpenStreetMaps built into the themes, or would the IDX vendor’s map override them?

    I ask because I am really intrigued by Zoner, but I don’t know if all of Zoner’s map display options would still be available if the IDX plugin doesn’t “play well” with the map features built into the theme. I would be using an IDX plugin other than dsIDXpress.

    Thanks for your insight!

    Reply

    1. Hello Mike,

       There are certain limitations when using dsIDXpress. Basically what developers can do is to apply CSS styling to dsIDXpress listings but can take them and add inside their own maps or use custom filters that comes with theme. dsIDXpress is on its own, with its own map and filters while taking styling from theme. Here you can read more about Zoner theme and its dsIDXpress integration and limitations. But it is not just Zoner but all themes because it is limitation in plugin itself therefore other themes will act the same way.

Personally I like Real Homes theme more but it is just my subjective opinion as others will prefer WP Residence.

       1. Alright thanks for the answer, I chose WP Residence!

    1. Todd,

       Frontend listing submission is available for most theme as well and my favorite themes are Real Homes, “WP Pro Real Estate 7” and Real Places. Payment integration is also there for all of my mentioned themes.

       For commercial appraisal and review business you might want to use some multipurpose theme such as these.

64. Hi Aigars,

    Thank you for your time in creating such an amazing post.

    Question, what theme would you recommend to be the best fit to link to an XML feed. We currently use RealFeed.com to post our listings, we would like to showcase any listing posted there our my WP theme.

    They said they will provide us with an XML feed so we can get their listings and it should continuously update on our site.

    Is this possible with any of your 3 recommendation? Real Places has integration of “WP All Import Pro Edition”. Will this do the trick?

    Thanks,
    Gar

    1. Gar,

       Real places theme has an Add-On for WP All Import and you can download it for free from WordPress plugin repository. You still need WP All Import Pro edition to use this add-on but it is specially built for the theme and will make your life much easier.

    1. Carolynn,

       Tracking location is a bit tricky. There are basically two ways how you can do it.
       1. Check user IP and determine location based on that. This kind of location check is not very accurate/
       2. Use “The Geolocation API” that creates notification like this:
       

       It will accurately determine location but there are two major drawback and that’s also the reason why so very few themes has this functionality.
       a) User must agree that their location will be used. In 90% of cases users just ignore this notification.
       b) This kind of setup requires SSL/TLS connection which will cost more as you will need SSL/TLS certificate and hosting that can handle these secure connections.

       Theme developers don’t want to deal with all the support and complains from two of my above mentioned things and therefore they just leave The Geolocation API out of their themes.

69. Hi Aigars,

    We want to move away from a hand coded website now, and while I can see most of the features we will need to replace all the functions we currently have, I haven’t seen mention of an xml feed ‘export’ (rather than xml import). Is there a plugin available to work with the best themes here (Reales for example) ?
    Also the admin control of a user log in (for agents) is great, but can this be adapted to be a customer log in area to save favourite properties etc? but of course without them adding new properties! How adaptable are the fields?

    Reply

    1. Laura,

       XML import and export is possible for all themes because WordPress has a built-in functionality for that. But format is different form theme to theme so you can’t export listings from one theme and move them to another.

       You can create different user levels regardless theme because it is a WordPress default functionality.

       Reply

70. Hi Aigars,

    I like WP residence’s function which allow us to set an expiration date for listings. However, I prefer the look of Reales, but I don’t think Reales has the same function. Is it possible to add the function by adding a plugin or doing some simple coding (by a non web developer)?

    Reply

    1. Unfortunately, Reales theme doesn’t offer have option to set expiration date for your listings. It is going to be much easier to choose some other theme than trying to implement this functionality yourself.

I would be really thankful to your help in this regard . My questions are :

    1) Starting from scratch, how do I start after taking/installing wordpress ? (i am a novice,so i know it would be annoying for you , apologies 😛 )
    2) How will I manage the database/listings submitted by my customers/subscribers to my site ?
    3) Does Real Homes have the feature of package subscriptions for real estate agents so that I can charge those agents who would like to post properties on my website. If Real homes doesnt have this feature , can you suggest a theme which has it or how do I cucstomize real homes for it ?
    4) In REAL HOMES I would like to have the option of booking of a property in which is available for rent and once the customer does that after paying 20% of the rent value amount , I want the remaining money to be transferred to the agent who has the property listed (after the customer meets and takes the property after meeting the agent) . How is that possible to do ?
    5) Can I integrate other Payment Gateways apart from paypal like CCavanue,2checkout,etc ?

    That is it for now , Sorry if these many questions are annoying to you 😛 . Would really appreciate your help with answers .

80. Aigars, thanks for being so responsive to people’s questions in the comments. I’m trying to build a real estate website for a local real estate agency that is focused on providing hyper-local search data based on RETS data provided by my local MLS mixed with my own, more defined neighborhoods (based on geographical boundaries that I define), additional property details from data I have collected, as well as relevant data that I use from public records, etc. Do you know of a theme that is robust and flexible enough to handle these requirements? I have many other requirements, but I’m not sure if they are going to be factors that involve the theme decision, or just plugin decisions, etc. — such as being designed with a “mobile first” design theme, desktop and phone push notifications (e.g., Roost), creating robust and highly visual reports, CRM integration, contextual user experience based on referring source or user behavior, ability to save any search or property, track how much time is spent by each user on each property detail page (back in my CRM), etc.
    I’d love to get your assistance, if possible. I’d be willing to pay for a custom theme to be created based on another theme. If your response is better served in a direct email, that is fine as well. I’m also looking for a good WordPress developer and UX designer to help me with it. Thanks again.

       WordPress is also built on PHP but you can’t use WordPress themes directly to other PHP based platforms. These themes as specifically made for WordPress and tweaking them for other platforms is not as easy as it might sound it it. Much easier solution would be to take some HTML templates such as these and convert for your platform.

83. Will this theme work with Godaddy’ s Basic WordPress hosting completely?

    Reply

    1. Yogesh,

       There themes will run on Godaddy’s Basic WordPress hosting but hosting itself is very slow even when using a simple WordPress theme. Godaddy is famous for overselling their server space meaning that you are going to share the same server with hundreds of thousands of other websites. With hosting it is generally true that you get what you pay for. Your hosting costs $4/month while we pay $1,200/month to host Colorlib. It clearly reflects in performance and reliability. For most websites our setup is an overkill but there are many great WordPress managed hosting alternatives such as ones offered by WP Engine and Pagely. Their prices starts at around $30/month but your website will load so much faster and uptime will be much better as well.

        None of the themes has this functionality. But for this kind of functionality, you should look for plugins. Themes are all about design and plugins are what provides functionality. Therefore some booking plugins would be the best bet and they also work with every single theme listed above.

     2. Thanks for this is a great selection, Aigars. I want to say add that buying a good template its very responsible but small part of the establishment of new online business. Everyone can buy paint and brushes, but not everyone can draw a great picture. Someone should adjust your template qualitatively – hosting, set professional site style, edit pictures, make minimum SEO optimisation. For example, when I decided to start my own real estate website I thought that theme is all I need)) Luckily I’ve found guys from the Bold web agency – they are a new company so, for now, they do services at very affordable prices. They set up a Jevelin theme for me, gave me basic instructions so I start working during one week. Without their help, it would take a very very long time.

     3. I actually use the Enfold theme for my customers and for my own I’d use generatepress theme – BUT – for real estate plugin I use RETS PRO since it literally integrates into any theme so the theme doesn’t even have to be a crappy RE theme since it simply adds RE templates into any them.

        The other reason I use that plugin is due to Dynamic SEO – hands down the most dynamic SEO options of any RE plugin out there – check their youtube shortcode playlist to see what I’m talking about.

        Any theme can be easily translated. In fact, many things are translated once you chance the WordPress language. For example, comment section, dates and all that is translated using WordPress itself. From there you will need to translate very few strings if any. Here you can learn more about translation.
        If you are looking to create a multilingual website we highly recommend WPML for that.

        1. I disagree. I have purchased Houzez theme, installed and have been fixing bugs on my own more than i should. Modern design (cosmetic) is one thing, performance and maintenance is another. I value latter two because any designer can help you make your site look pretty but not everyone can help your site perform better nor fixing bugs. It’s added cost and time you have to take into consideration.

           I would recommend once purchased and installed a theme, run it against GTMetrix and install WP Debug Queries. GTMetrix give you an overview on how your site/theme performs out of box and WP Debug Queries tells you how many database queries executed per page. You will be surprised.

        There is absolutely no mention of “free” in the title of this post. If you are looking for free themes you might want to start your search here.

114. Hi Aigars,

     We are a Real Estate developer in India. We are in the process re-designing our website and wanted to do it in WordPress. What theme would you suggest would be best for us?

     Thanks,

115. Hi, I was hoping someone with more experience can make a recommendation for me. I’m an investor and don’t need to integrate with the MLS. I would like to require my site visitors to either register or perhaps create a fee account before they can see my properties. I’d also like the site to be easy to use from a mobile and tablet. And finally, I need to be able to assign a “type” or “category” for each listing which is also a field that the user can search by; i.e. restrict the results to listings of type “A”.

116. Hi Aigars,
     I don’t have any experience with creating websites. I need your suggestions.
     I have registered domain with GoDaddy and also subscribed to WordPress ULTIMATE hosting for a year. Couldn’t find any good free themes over there.
     I would like to have site for selling and renting, with multiple dashboards for different agencies, agents and physical persons. Up to 10 languages translations. Subscriptions. Leads via email, etc.
     1. Real Homes – you think its for me? Any other suggestions?
     2. What is your thoughts about this one (why they are so expensive?)
     3. All these themes will work fine with GoDaddy ULTIMATE hosting?
     4. What hosting do I need to handle up to 10 000 properties. 100 000?

     Thanks in advance

117. Hi,

     I am going to start with WordPress. We have a small builder company. We are going to build one to four houses at the same time and sell them to families. At the beginning we have a real estate agency but later we may sell them by ourselves.

     Is the Real Estate theme too complicate for this. I woud prefer more theme like Pinnacle or Enfolf. And at the beginning make just a portfolio for the houses. But can I get later a widget for real estate if needes? Where I can see all those widgets witch are possible within the theme. Or can I do it with Real Estate theme a little bit more simple at first?

121. Do you know if Real Home theme can filter the neighbourhood and cities when it selected a state in the search box? for example if I select California the dropdown menu for city only displays the cities that belong to California and when I select San Francisco the dropdown menu for neighbourhood just displays the neighbourhoods belongs to San Francisco?

     Thanks in advanced.

123. Hi Aigars

     Great and helpful post, thank you. Love the minimal approach from Hemma – do you know any similar real estate agency template? I’m looking for something modern, clean, minimal, light and simple, only the most needed information displayed and “light coloring” (similar style template: Yonkers) – I’m sure there’s a modern and simple term for my explanation, but I don’t know it (yet). At best, it would be multilingual ready and has an easy to use admin backend.

     Thank you in advance for your help.

     1. Sam,

        If you couldn’t find the right theme on this list you might also check these. All themes are highly customizable and you can choose to remove most of the elements that you don’t need to make them look clean and light. Also, themes has unlimited color schemes, so the sky’s the limit. Demos are created to showcase all the functionality of the theme but you are not obligated to use 99% of it unless you need those things.

124. I wouldn’t recommend for any reason to use any theme of WpCasa. I have had too much problems with the themes, add-ons and custom developments.
     They don’t care about customer support. It seems to be just one person behind WpCasa, so I assume this is the reason of the lack of reply from their part to my several requirements to customer support (…more than two and a half month waiting).
     After more than a year of experience with WpCasa the best recommendation I could give to anyone is to look for a true settled company and with real customer support.

     1. Thank you for your feedback! In fact, we have already removed it from our list of recommendations. They used to be a great theme provider but after ownership change it all went has gone South.

125. Hi Aigars,

     How are you doing?
     I have purchased a domain with godaddy, they will host my site. I am new to wordpress, I want to purchase a real estate theme from your company and log into godaddy, go to wp dash board to install this new theme to start building my own real estate site. Can you recommend a theme for me? I don’t want complicated theme. Something that looks professional and modern, easy to manage.

     Thanks

     1. Brad,

        It depends what functionality your site needs but themes you can’t go wrong with are Real Homes if real estate listings are what you are after. If you are building a regular business website in real estate niche you might also consider Divi.

126. It’s worth pointing out that a lot of the themes above heavily feature Google Maps. With the changes in Google’s API pricing, you may find that you’ll blow past their free limits and end up paying for usage. Be careful!

     Reply

     1. Ombush,

        Google Maps are highlighted heavily on the demos but you are not obligated to use maps at all unless you really need them. But if you decide to use maps, some additional costs might come from Google’s API.

127. Hi Aigars,
     Thanks for this compilation. I’m a first time buyer of a website template so I have a big learning curve ahead. I saw the comments about google map costs and I was wondering, aside from my domain name and hosting, as well as the cost of the template, what other costs would I have to be concerned with once my site is up and running? I’m strongly considering using WP Pro Real Estate 7 as my template, and know the cost of IDS through my MLS. Any insight would be so appreciated!

     Reply

     1. Themes are one time purchase which means that you won’t need to pay one you purchase it. Yearly payments are going to be for your domain name, hosting and MLS in your case.
        For Google maps you get 25,000 requests a day for free and after that you pay $0.50 USD / 1,000 additional map loads. Which means that it is very unlikely that you will be paying for Google Maps anytime soon. Other costs depends on what services a d plugins you will use but you can easily avoid using any of them because there are so many great free plugins out there.

128. Any templates which would include 360 VR tours?

     Reply

     1. You won’t find a theme anywhere that has this functionality built in. You need a plugin or some 3rd party solution for that. However, any of those solutions can be used with any of themes listed above.
        Themes are all about design and functionality like VR is always done by plugins or other services.

129. I’m looking for a theme that is more tailored towards property management for landlords.

     So, in brief, landlords can register/login and add rental properties to the site. Prospective tenants can view properties and contact the landlord about them re any maintenance issues and the like. Is there anything out there that would achieve this, whether it is a theme or plugin?

     Reply

     1. It is way too specific use case yo have a ready-made WordPress theme or plugin for it. You will need to look into developing a custom solution.

130. Hi, Aigars

     What templates would you recommended me if I have a business that rent and sell warehouses and offices?
     Because I need to personalize things like “numbers of bedrooms, numbers of bath”, etc.

     Do you thing Real Estate 7 or Houzez would work? Or what theme would you recommended me?

     We already have a website. Is it possible to import all properties with a Feed XML with a plugin with one od these templates?

     Reply

     1. Your mentioned themes will work perfectly fine for what you need. Regarding XML important. It really depends on what platform your current site is built and how your data is structured. I don’t think it will work perfectly without tinkering around or losing some data along the way.

        Reply

131. does houzez allow easy export of feed to right move and other sites?
     If not can you recommend a similar theme?

     Reply

     1. WordPress by default does allow to import and export all the posts/data but since data on custom posts types (not regular posts, pages etc) are structured differently from theme to theme it might not be a straightforward process to transfer data. However, if both sites use the same theme or you know how to adjust exported data it shouldn’t be a problem.

132. Amazing post. Your blog post is the best I’ve read so far. Finally, someone that really knows what they are saying.
     Currently, I’m using Divi and I must admit I’m not finding the child theme very real estate friendly.
     I’m looking into HomePress, Eiddo, Residence Real Estate and RealHomes.
     My main concerns are customization, SEO and functionality.
     May I ask which one you’d recommend?
     Thank you so much for this.

     1. Melisa,

        Since you already have Divi and a child theme I would recommend sticking with it. Just make sure to install some SEO plugin such as Yoast SEO or other and take care of all the SEO related aspects. Theme itself is nor helping nor helping with SEO and even if there are some slight disadvantages with your theme those are minor that you can easily fix with SEO plugins. Since we sell WP themes I should be trying to sell you one but in your case you already have a very good foundation with Divi but just needs some tweaks using Yoast SEO or other plugin. That will save you a lot of money and time. I hope that helps.
