Commercial real estate sites are often ahead of residential not only because of budget resources, but because the product is often more consistent and easier to convey in full screen. Not always, but in many cases.
As you look at your own site compared to the top sites around today, you may consider a redesign, or at least leveraging the features of the most modern sites. What do most of these sites have in common? They’re responsive, they’re minimalist, they’re image based, and they take advantage of the big screen.
Recently, inMotion Real Estate Media launched their coveted Top 45 Commercial Real Estate Web Designs list, broken down into three categories – company sites, property websites, and real estate platforms.

Many are still using their website from 2007 and it’s simply out of date. Ask yourself – is that holding back your conversion ratios? Possibly.
