IDX Plugin for WordPress

It probably sounds complicated. You're thinking about tens of thousands of listings, large images, search filters, fast performance, SEO, and everything else that goes into a modern real estate site. It seems like the kind of setup that would require expensive software or a fully custom build.

But with IDX Broker and the IDX Plugin, it's surprisingly easy — and affordable.

This setup doesn't require installing anything inside WordPress. The IDX Plugin is a lightweight tool that lets you embed ready-made widgets directly into your site using simple copy-and-paste code. Everything is powered by your IDX Broker account, so your site always shows accurate MLS data without syncing or manual updates.

It works with all major page builders — including Gutenberg, Elementor, WPBakery, Divi, Beaver Builder, Brizy, SiteOrigin, Thrive Architect, Oxygen, and Themify. If your builder supports adding custom code blocks or HTML — you're ready to go.

And since your IDX setup isn't tied to a specific plugin or theme, you stay flexible. You can change your builder, redesign your site, or even move to another platform like Squarespace or Wix — and still keep your IDX tools and layout. That means you preserve your structure, SEO, and investment over time.
