Real Estate web development in Melbourne: FAQs

How much does a real estate website cost in Melbourne?+

In Melbourne, a business website typically costs A$5,000 – A$20,000, while a custom web app runs A$20,000 – A$120,000. Agency day rates of AUD 85-165/hr are the main driver, followed by integrations and how much custom functionality you need. Tecklogist quotes real estate projects from from A$799 at a fixed price.

How long does it take to build a real estate website?+

A business website usually takes 3–6 weeks; a custom web app takes 8–20 weeks. Delays almost always come from late content, unclear scope or third-party integrations, so agree those before work starts.

Which platform is best for real estate websites?+

The usual options are Custom Next.js + property API, WordPress + Custom Post Types, Reapit API / AgentOS integration and Virtual tour embeds. The right one depends on how often your team edits content, which systems the site must connect to and your budget, so be wary of any Melbourne agency that recommends the same platform for every client.

What should I ask a real estate web developer in Melbourne before hiring?+

Ask about rightmove or Zoopla OAD data feed integration experience; property search with map integration (Google Maps or Mapbox) and polygon or radius-based filtering for postcode-level searches; cRM integration with the client's existing property management system. Then ask for two or three live real estate websites they built, who will actually work on yours, and what support looks like after launch.

Why is Tecklogist ranked first on this list?+

This list is published by Tecklogist, and we rank ourselves first because real estate websites are core work for us: fixed prices, fixed timelines and code you own. The other Melbourne agencies are ordered by the real estate evidence in their public profiles, and none of them pay to appear.
