IDX Coverage

Bright MLS IDX for Real Estate Websites.

Add live Bright MLS listings and property search to your website with iHomefinder IDX.

Yes — iHomefinder provides Bright MLS IDX for real estate agents, teams, and brokers who want live property listings and home search on their own website. Bright MLS listings, photos, prices, open houses, and status changes update automatically through the IDX feed. iHomefinder works with WordPress and other website platforms, or provides the complete website — either way, listings are embedded directly on your domain, no iframes, no subdomains.

Bright MLS is the largest MLS in the United States, serving 101,100 subscribers across Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, New Jersey, Delaware, West Virginia, and Washington, DC. If you joined before 2016, you may know it by its legacy names — MRIS or TREND.

The Platform

What You Get with iHomefinder Bright MLS IDX

Listings on your domain

Property search and listing pages live on your domain rather than a framed page or vendor subdomain — giving you stronger control over search visibility, analytics, and lead capture.

IDX + CRM + automation, one login

Every iHomefinder plan includes IDX, CRM, and marketing automation. When a buyer saves a search in Bethesda or favorites a listing in Philadelphia, that activity appears in your CRM.

Bright compliance, handled

Bright requires IDX logos and disclaimers on all listings and reviews displays for compliance. iHomefinder’s Bright MLS displays are built to these rules — you don’t manage compliance yourself.

Multi-MLS on one site

iHomefinder supports multiple MLS feeds on one website and in one CRM. The number of included feeds depends on your plan.

Works with Follow Up Boss

iHomefinder integrates with Follow Up Boss, automatically forwarding new IDX leads into the CRM your team already uses.

We handle the paperwork

iHomefinder manages the vendor request, feed configuration, compliance setup, and site build. No developer required.

Compatibility

Does Bright MLS IDX Work with My Website?

Yes — three ways. iHomefinder integrates with your existing WordPress site, works with other website platforms, or builds and hosts the complete site. In every case, listings render on your domain, and iHomefinder handles configuration, feed setup, and Bright compliance — no developer required.
