The best real estate portal software in 2026.
A property portal, where many agents and owners list homes, can run on a hosted platform or a WordPress real estate theme. Here are the options worth a look, what each costs in its first year, and who each one suits. We make Yclas, so it comes first; every other row says when that product is the better choice, and Yclas doesn't import MLS.

4 options, and who each one suits.
Year one means what a working site costs in its first year, from each product's own prices. Hosting for self-hosted software depends on the host you choose, so it is left out.
