Who it's for

The problems we see every time in the real estate agencies industry

If at least one of these sounds familiar, custom web applications is the right lever.

    Total dependence on the portals, with rising placement costs
    Site listings not synced with Immobiliare.it/Idealista
    Property pages with few photos, no floor plan, no virtual tour
    No lead magnet (free valuation, local market report)
    Single anonymous contact form, no tracking of lead source
What you take away

Frequently asked questions

custom web applications for a real estate agencies: how long does a project typically take?

It depends on the scale, but for most cases we're talking about 2-4 weeks from sign-off to going live, content included. For complex cases (many languages, integrations with industry software) it can take 6-8 weeks.

Can I start even if I don't have all my content (text, photos) ready?

Yes. We offer copy support and image selection as a separate package, or we proceed with placeholders and swap them in along the way. The important thing is to nail the positioning before the design phase.

Can I update the site on my own after delivery?

Yes. We deliver with a simple editorial panel (organised by content type) and 2 hours of training included. For structural changes (new sections, new templates) we step in.

Does the site comply with real estate agencies industry regulations?

Yes. For this industry we take into account: Mandatory EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) visible in every listing under Legislative Decree 192/2005 and the Ministerial Decree of 26/06/2015. Mandatory indication of the energy class and EPI. Law 39/1989 on real estate agents registered in the Roll (today the Business Register). GDPR applies to prospective buyers' contact data, with separate marketing consent. We always start from compliance, we don't add it afterwards.

Why does a real estate agencies project cost more than a generic site?

The real estate agencies industry requires specific features, regulatory compliance and an architecture that works for its audience. What's optional on a generic site is included by default here — and it's cheaper to do it right from the start than to fix it later.

What does a custom application really cost?

It depends on the scope, and any serious quote comes after a 1-2 day discovery where we map processes, users, and integrations. Realistic ranges: €5-10k for a simple client portal, €13-20k for an industry-specific management system with workflows and roles, €20-30k for platforms with multiple integrations. Below €5k the risk is an underestimated scope and an incomplete project; above €30k we move into enterprise scope with a dedicated team. Be wary of anyone who quotes you by email without a scoping call: the price is either inflated for cover, or it's low and the project overruns.

Why Next.js and not Bubble/Retool/other low-code?

Bubble, Retool, FlutterFlow work perfectly well for prototypes and MVPs up to 50-200 users. Above those volumes the limits show: performance, rising platform costs, customisation constraints, total lock-in (you can't 'export' a Bubble app). Next.js + Postgres is a stack that handles millions of requests, runs on any hosting, and the code is yours. If the use case is simple and temporary, low-code is fine. If the software becomes core business, custom is the right investment.

How are the sprints structured?

Two-week sprints. Sprint start: planning and priorities with you. During: development, internal testing, async daily updates via Slack/email. Sprint end: live demo of what's been built plus a retrospective (what's working, what we change). You have full visibility on progress and priorities: no surprises at go-live. The code is available from day one on GitHub, accessible to you.

Do you maintain the app after go-live?

Yes, with a dedicated Care contract. Maintenance covers: dependency updates, security patches, uptime monitoring, bug fixes within SLA, minor enhancements. The fee starts at €290/month for small apps and rises based on complexity and the SLA required. Alternatively, if your in-house team feels ready to handle it, we do a full technical handover and stay available on call.

Does it integrate with Odoo / my management system?

Yes, it's one of the most frequent use cases. Odoo exposes complete JSON-RPC APIs; we connect to sync contacts, orders, products, invoices. For other systems (SAP, Zucchetti, TeamSystem) it depends on the available APIs: some have modern REST APIs, others require file export/import or dedicated connectors. We check during discovery: if your system exposes reasonable APIs, we integrate natively; if it doesn't, we build a sync layer.

Can I hire another supplier later, if I need to?

Always. The code lives on GitHub under your account, the technical and functional documentation is delivered, and the stack (Next.js, Postgres, Tailwind) is mainstream and known to any competent developer. No proprietary lock-in, no code held hostage. If tomorrow you want to bring the project in-house or switch agencies, you can do so without rewrites.
