Companies Using iHomefinder IDX

I pulled iHomefinder IDX from our October 2026 crawl because it looked out of place. It ranks 7th of 58 in our Site Search table, 53 domains behind Site Search 360, yet nobody installs it to search their own blog posts. A domain counts here when a page loads a script from idxhome.com or sets iHomefinder's ihfJquery variable. That gives 4,816 live domains, 2,688 matched to a company, and a market of real estate offices that happens to sit in a search category.

Two versions on one host

iHomefinder serves two generations of its IDX from the same domain. The older one loads from www.idxhome.com. The newer one, Kestrel, loads from kestrel.idxhome.com, and iHomefinder's Partner API documentation has a setting for it: off, Kestrel on listing detail pages only, or Kestrel everywhere. On the 3,796 domains where we logged which host the script came from, 2,553 load Kestrel. 646 of them load nothing else, 1,907 load both hosts, and 1,237 still run the older script alone.

Sales signal: the 1,237 older installs are offices that haven't moved yet. For a web designer or an IDX rival, that's the group most likely to be rethinking its site, because a platform migration is when an agent reopens the listing-feed question.

Reading the chart

The usage chart reads 3,666 in June, 4,432 in July and 4,816 in October. I wouldn't sell that as growth. The set of domains we crawl turns over every month, with dead sites dropping out and new ones found, and our detection widened over the summer, so most of the June to July step is on our side. Exits are clearer. 667 domains dropped iHomefinder on at least one hostname since we began tracking it on 16 March 2026, and 136 of those still run it on another hostname, which leaves about 531 that left it entirely in seven months.

"Our catalog calls iHomefinder a site search tool. Its matched customers include 2,542 American companies, nearly all real estate offices that want MLS listings on their own websites." - Elif Arslan, CMO & Co-founder at TechnologyChecker.io

Sales signal: treat this as a stable base of about 4,800 sites rather than a fast-growing one. The movement worth tracking is the 531 leavers, since an agent who drops IDX search usually rebuilt the site or changed brokerage.

Who the customers are

72.56% of matched companies with a known size have 1 to 10 employees and 24.17% have 11 to 50. Only 20 list more than 200 staff. The largest group was founded in the 2010s (38.76%), with 26.94% from the 2000s. The names on our list are local offices: Downing-Frye Realty in Naples, McGrew Real Estate in Lawrence, Kansas, Ewing & Clark in Seattle, The Realty Association in Nashville. Franchise offices run it under their own domains, as CENTURY 21 Advantage Gold and Weichert Realtors Saxon Clark do, so the buyer is the office, not the franchisor.

Sales signal: sell to the broker-owner. In an office of ten or fewer, the person who signed the IDX contract also signs for the website, the CRM and the ads.

One country, one industry

2,542 of the 2,643 matched companies with a known country are American, 96.18%. Canada adds 62, Mexico 14 and Puerto Rico 10. Industry is as narrow: Real Estate is 90% and Real Estate Agents and Brokers 2.73%, so 92.73% sit in one trade. iHomefinder's pricing page says it covers more than 95% of MLSs in the United States and Canada, and the map follows those feeds.

Sales signal: you can't segment this list by vertical, because there's only one. Segment by MLS market and office size, and treat Canada's 62 companies as a separate, small campaign.

Leaving and switching

We found no rival that sites moved to or from in numbers worth reporting. The overlap tells the same story. Our crawl finds IDX Broker on 3,018 live domains and Showcase IDX on 388, and only 16 domains run IDX Broker and iHomefinder together. Agents don't layer listing feeds; they run one, and it changes when the whole website changes.

"Only 16 domains run IDX Broker and iHomefinder together. An agent picks one listing feed and keeps it until the website changes." - Elif Arslan, CMO & Co-founder at TechnologyChecker.io

Sales signal: for a rival IDX vendor, the opening is the website rebuild, not a feature comparison. Watch for the hosting and builder changes in the stack below.

The stack around it

Across the 4,879 live domains in our stack analysis, WordPress runs on 87.29%. Elementor is on 12.5% and Divi on 10.64%, and iHomefinder's Optima Express plugin is how a WordPress site connects to its IDX. GoDaddy hosts 35.54%, Flywheel 8.22% and WP Engine 6.03%. Agent Image, a real estate web design firm, appears on 5.37%, and its hosting accounts for 18 domains that returned errors when we crawled them. Google Analytics is on 63.41%, while outside CRMs barely register: HighLevel is on 1.35% and Zoho on 0.61%.

Sales signal: these are self-managed WordPress sites on shared hosting. Managed WordPress hosts, real estate web designers and SEO agencies will find the clearest fit here. A CRM vendor will struggle, because iHomefinder already sells one in the same plan.

What it costs

iHomefinder doesn't list plan prices. Its pricing page (checked 14 October 2026) describes Lead Essentials (one agent, one MLS, up to 1,000 leads), Lead Maximizer (up to seven agents, up to 5,000 leads) and Growth Pro (ten agents and unlimited MLSs), and asks for a 10-minute call to quote. The add-ons are priced: a hosted website on Lead Essentials is $50 a month plus $500 setup, a second agent $30 a month and an extra MLS from $25 a month.

Sales signal: quote-based pricing means each office negotiated its own deal. Renewal dates, not list prices, decide when an account can move.

Key takeaways

1. 4,816 live domains, 7th of 58 in Site Search, but the product is MLS listing search.

2. 2,553 of 3,796 domains with a logged host load the newer Kestrel platform; 1,237 run the older script alone.

3. 72.56% of matched companies have 1 to 10 staff, and 96.18% of those with a country are American.

4. About 531 domains left it entirely since March 2026, and only 16 run IDX Broker beside it.

5. A WordPress base (87.29%) with GoDaddy hosting on 35.54%.

How to use this list

Filter by state and office size, then dedupe by brokerage, since some offices run many domains. For the full list of 4,816 iHomefinder IDX domains with company, size and stack data, explore TechnologyChecker.io.
