Goals and Challenges
The agency’s previous website no longer matched the way the business needed to present properties online. The rebuild focused on clearer browsing, stronger mobile templates, and a technical base that could support a live property data workflow.
The main technical challenge was connecting the website with the agency’s property management software. That integration needed to keep listings current, reduce duplicated admin work, and make sure property information stayed accurate for visitors.
The Solution
I rebuilt the site around structured property templates, advanced search, saved-property behavior, and responsive layouts that make listings easier to compare. The work balanced presentation with utility, because property websites need to support repeat visits and specific search intent.
I added user accounts backed by a custom database schema for saved properties and alert preferences, plus a multi-field search (location, price range, bedrooms, property type) that filters server-side rather than hiding/showing DOM nodes client-side, so results stay accurate as the listing count grows.

The finished site handles both sides of the same problem: a public search-and-browse experience for buyers, and an internal content workflow for staff listing and updating properties, without the two pulling against each other in the same admin.
