OneTimeA self-hosted property listing website — your listings, your domain, no monthly IDX bill.
IDX website providers charge $50–300+ a month, forever, to host your photos and a contact form — and if you cancel, the site and its SEO disappear. Listcraft is a self-hosted listing website for independent agents and small brokerages. $39, once. Your data is a SQLite file plus photos on your own disk, and your leads come straight to you.

Listcraft vs IDX site providers
IDX site providers charges $50–300+/mo. Here's what actually differs.
| Listcraft | IDX site providers | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $39 once | $50–300+/mo |
| Year-1 cost | $39 | $600–3,600+ |
| Your data | SQLite file + photos on your disk | Their servers |
| Leads | Straight to your inbox | Shared, resold, or pay-per-lead |
| Branding | Your domain, logo, colors | Their subdomain and templates |
| Cancel penalty | None | Site and SEO disappear |
| Source code | MIT, on GitHub | Closed |
Listcraft costs less than a single month at the cheap end of an IDX provider — every month after year one is money you keep.
Pick how you pay
Subscriptions if you want them — but the whole point is the lifetime tier.
Up and running in three steps
Buy once on Whop
One payment of $39 gets you the packaged Windows installer, or clone the MIT source at github.com/bensblueprints/property-listing-site-mvp and run it free.
Build your listings
Use desktop mode to add listings, photos and agent profiles before you ever touch a server.
Deploy when public
Run docker compose up -d on a $5 VPS, point your domain at it, and you have an agent website with leads coming to you.
Fair questions
Is it really free on GitHub?
Yes — Listcraft is MIT-licensed at github.com/bensblueprints/property-listing-site-mvp, and it always will be. The $39 buys the packaged, zero-config Windows installer; building from source is free.
Who owns the leads and data?
You do. Leads go straight to your own inbox, and the SQLite file plus photos live on your disk — nothing is shared or resold.
Does it need any external services?
No. Maps are bundled locally with no CDN, SMTP for lead emails is optional, and geocoding is only called when you explicitly click Geocode address.
