I am very pleased to announce that AgentPress has officially launched! The AgentPress theme is an ideal solution for real estate agents looking to market themselves and rise above their competition while being fully optimized for the highest search engine results.
Another element that I am very excited to share is that AgentPress has teamed up with Reggie and Nicole Nicolay, as well as Chad Johnson – who together form the team at My Tech Opinion. They will be handling theme customization and consulting – and can be hired to help take your real estate site to a much higher level. This will include graphic design work, additional search engine optimization, social media integration as well as real estate listing integration.
Here’s a video of Nicole Nicolay talking about AgentPress:
The 411 on the AgentPress Theme
The AgentPress theme provides the best opportunity to showcase your real estate listings as well as personal info. Why bother having two separate real estate sites, when you can have a powerful and amazing site that is search engine optimized, running on WordPress, which the Search Engines, like Google, LOVE?
Here are some features that the AgentPress theme includes:
- 4 Color Schemes
- Custom Write Post Panel
- Search Engine Optimized
- Custom Property Template
- Theme Options Page
- Auto-sized Thumbnail Management
- Widget-Ready
- Developed for Localization
- Header PSD Files Included
Other Important Things to Know
Believe it or not, this project has been in the making for over 6 months – I’ve been very busy with a lot of great things that have been happening over at StudioPress, which took higher priority over the launching of the AgentPress site. Speaking of which, I do want to point out that AgentPress is completely independent of StudioPress – they are two separate entities, but we’ll certainly be extending the 25% discount that we always give our theme users for repeat purchases.
In other words, the AgentPress theme(s) is not included in the StudioPress All-Theme package. But don’t worry, we are very busy working on some more themes that will soon be released on StudioPress as well as upgrading our support forum/tutorials.
Now to the Good Stuff
If you have previously purchased a Revolution/StudioPress theme package, and would like the 25% discount on the AgentPress theme, feel free to contact us and we’ll be happy to extend that to you.
You can also follow AgentPress on Twitter – we’ll be announcing theme updates, as well as publishing relevant articles for agents that include WordPress tips, how to maximize use of the AgentPress theme as well as other real estate industry news and events.
So what are you waiting for? Go on and take the AgentPress Demo site for a test drive!
Congratulations Brian on your newest adventure. It’s a sharp looking theme
Thanks so much Scott – appreciate it! It’s been a theme in the making for some time, and I’m very happy to finally be making it available!
This is absolutely brilliant, you are a master at cornering markets and destroying the competition. Is this included in the StudioPress all theme package?
Dan
Hey Dan, thanks – certainly appreciate the kind words. Per the post, you’ll see “In other words, the AgentPress theme(s) is not included in the StudioPress All-Theme package.” Because this is a niche-focused theme that will have its own unique templates, future enhancements, support, & niche-related articles, it won’t be included in the StudioPress theme package.
Congratulations! Very nice new design/Theme. and AgentPress as a whole. The real estate agents will be well served.
Wish you the best in the new venture!
Steve
Thanks Steve, I’m sure there are plenty of agents out by you who might be needing a website!
Beautiful looking theme, but would expect nothing less from you, thats why I purchased the ‘all-theme’ package. Looking at this new separate site them, would this theme be easily adapted to the UK market? i.e, change $ to £ and add/amend property details, example from site below.
Listing Price: $799,000
Address: 60 Edgewater Drive
City: Coral Gables
State: FL
Zip Code: 33133
County: Miami
Status: Open
MLS #: 872347
Square Feet: 3785
Bedrooms: 5
Bathrooms: 3 1/2
Basement: Full, Finished
Could these be adapted to within the code?
I presume this theme would come as a zip file like studiopress’s theme.
Thanks
Steve
There is such a need for this in the real estate space. You picked outstanding partners too with Nicole & Reggie. I’ve already referred the theme off to several agents. I expect you have a big hit on your hands here!
Hey Stacey – thanks so much for the kind words, and already for the referrals! I certainly agree that Reggie, Nicole and Chad are outstanding partners, and look forward to growing the Real Estate market within the WordPress community.
Woohoo Stacey! Thanks for the support ! Glad you like the new theme as much as we do….& with Brian you know it’s a win-win!
Hi Brian
We will be launching ZooProperty.com shortly and this would be a great theme to add to the list of WordPress Themes that will launch with it. We already have http://www.rwm.com.au and a few others. Would love to include this for sale as well. How will this theme be released and will it be possible for us to do this?
Regards Peter RIcci
Hey Peter – the theme has the GPL license. I would suggest somehow building in the cost so your customers can have their own support accounts. If you want to discuss a volume license, let me know!
congrats brian. excellent theme. i like how you integrate the google maps to locate the property.
WOW Brian, this is a beauty!!!!! I am drooling and thinking of who I know in the real estate industry.
Wish List – it would be so cool to have a theme with this sort of format for our PRODUCTS and/or services!!!! Something like an “Affiliate” or “Featured” products theme.
Sending good thoughts your way!

Hey Brian – nice to see you’ve expanded your Agent theme with it’s own “Press” site and suite. And love the company of folks you’ve chosen to work with you. Reggie, Nicole, and Chad run a solid business and sure know what they are doing. I will definitely be sending people your way.
Keep up the good work!
All the best,
Eugene
Hey Eugene – long time no speak, eh? Good to hear from you and thanks so much for the comment. Hope things are going well with you, and check your email as I sent you a reply back from the submission you made.
This is great…I have a friend who does real estate here in Cincinnati and she just uses a simple wordpress blog. This is the upgrade she has been looking for, Thnx for the great post.
Hi Brian, would I be able to use your theme to run a private property listings? Through my travel and tourism blog, I receive daily enquiries from private property owners seeking to list their homes for the expected soccer fans next year. So that means I would be running a vacation rentals marketplace (where home owners would have direct contact with their clients) with me charging them a once off fee to list on the property.
My role would be getting these homes listed on the portal and getting international visitors coming into South Africa to book these homes.
Would your theme suits such a service?
Amazing theme, really great for a R.S Agency, it could come in handy one of these days,
Fantastic post, I have visited the section on wordpress theme on your blog, it has really nice looking themes. I have a client who currently have over 150 wordpress blgs, can I use one of your theme on my blog?
Thank you Brian for sharing!
Looking nice!!
Sorry to go off topic, but what are you using for the video? I see it is AgentPress branded.
The video is being hosted on Blip.tv
Congratulations on the launch!
Nice theme. Is this under GPL or commercial?
The theme is GPL licensed, but can be purchased at http://www.agentpress.com
I just wanted to give you a shoutout Brian. You are a remarkable blogger and a role model to me! Thanks so much!
Sincerely,
Ben Lang
Thanks Ben – certainly appreciate hearing that!
This is going to be good. I have a few agents that will be interested in this.
Cool theme Brian. Is this optimized for mobile phones, etc.?
It’s not optimized per se, but it should display fairly well.
Wonderful! Ive been looking for a decent wordpress estate theme, how does the search work, are the different price band different wordpress categories?
Yes – the search is made up of WordPress categories/sub-categories…
Very clever idea Brian, Agentpress could be utilised to targed specific suburbs as thats where clients would be searching. Would be interesting to see in the Australian market as a current house hunter I would definately subscribe to a suburb blog through agentpress , Simon
I recently got tossed into the real estate genre, and I like the expansion you’ve got here. Been reading your posts for a while now sitting on the fence with this one. Looks good and now seems like a perfect time for me to do this
Also I know a few real Estate agents I know would like this sort of upgrade. Thanks Brian for a great blog!
Anthony
Hi Brian,
I’m conducting a research about http://www.familyrelationships.org.uk/... My boss liked your theme and he wants to have your email address and phone no.. Don’t worry, he won’t ask for your service.. We understand that you are very busy right now, we just want to have your no. and email address for future reference and also so we can finally complete our spreadsheet..
I would really appreciate your help..
Advance Merry Christmas..
God Bless!
Thats kind of a big deal!! Not so long ago i spoke to a real estate friend of mine who had to spend stupid amount of money on what he wanted. I pretty sure this would have done the trick!
Thanks for sharing the info. By the way the video of Nicole did not play so you may want to check into it. I have heard great things about Nicole!
It looks great… thanks
Nice theme Brian. Can “notarypress” be far behind ?
hey brian…i have to say that i am very impressed with your new theme. looks great and i will consider purchasing the theme when i start my new blog.
