WordPress + IDX Broker

The cheapest way to show MLS listings on a site you fully own.

$60 WordPress is free; IDX Broker feed ~$60/mo (Core) to $149 (Elite) + ~$99 setup, hosting, and MLS pass-through fees. Verified

Pairing self-hosted WordPress with IDX Broker is the cheapest route to displaying live MLS listings on a website you completely own and control. You trade convenience for flexibility: there's no vendor lock-in and no ceiling on customization, but you're responsible for hosting, setup, and upkeep. It suits agents comfortable with a bit of tech who want a durable asset rather than a monthly subscription platform.
