A Real Geeks alternative for the solo agent

What Real Geeks costs in year one

As of September 2026, per published pricing. First-year total is the entry plan for twelve months plus any published setup and IDX fees. Real Geeks's higher tiers cost more; SiteCurb has one tier.

That is 11.6× the cost for the year. Every SiteCurb plan also comes with a 14-day free trial, and you build the whole site before a card ever comes out — you pay only to publish.

Where Real Geeks hurts a solo agent

Real Geeks is a lead-generation platform: IDX search, a CRM, and a website to hang them on, priced at $399 a month plus a $500 setup fee plus $10 a month per MLS board for IDX, on a 6- or 12-month commitment. It earns its keep for teams that feed it traffic and work the leads daily. For a solo listing agent it is a lot of machinery.

• $500 up front, then $409 a month once one IDX board is on the bill. Year one is $5,408 — more than eleven years of SiteCurb.
• You are paying for a CRM and a search engine whether or not you use them. If your leads come from listings, referrals and your sphere, most of that bill is dead weight.
• A lead-gen platform is built to be fed. The site is the top of a funnel that expects you to keep sending it traffic; without that, it is an expensive brochure.
• Every enquiry on SiteCurb emails you instantly with reply-to set — you answer from your own inbox, no pipeline to manage.

What you give up with SiteCurb

The honest list. None of these is hidden in a footnote, so you can decide with them in view.

• No IDX or MLS feed. SiteCurb shows your listings — you add them yourself, with your photos (auto-optimized) and your words. That is what makes the $39 possible: there is nothing to license, so there is nothing to mark up. If your site needs to search the entire MLS, this is the wrong product.
• No CRM.Contact and per-listing enquiry forms email you instantly with reply-to set, and a “get new listings first” block collects subscribers. Pipelines, drips and lead scoring are not here; keep a CRM if you run one.
• No custom domain yet. Your site lives at yourname.sitecurb.com, with a TLS certificate, the moment you publish. Connecting a domain you already own is coming.

Who should stay with Real Geeks

Fair is fair. Real Geeks is the better choice if:

• You run buyer lead generation and need IDX search plus a CRM in one system — that is what Real Geeks is for.
• You have a team or an assistant working the CRM daily, so the $5,408 is producing closed deals.
