What Spectre Websites does well
It is built for agencies watching every pound, and it gets a website live without a big bill up front. A new agency with no budget and no website should take an offer like this and get something live this week. We would tell you the same on the phone.

Why agents look for an alternative
You are the designer
It is a builder. You choose the blocks, you write the words, you decide what goes where, and the result is as good as the hour you can spare for it. Most agents are busy winning instructions, and the site quietly stays average.
Free to start is not free to stay
With no setup fee, the money is in the monthly, and that runs for as long as the website does. Ask what the figure is, then multiply it by thirty six before comparing it with a one off fee.
It lives inside their world
The listings come from their own CRM, which is tidy if you are on it and a consideration if you ever move. Ask what happens to the site if you change system.
What we do instead
One website, designed and written for one agency, built around the thing that actually pays: turning a vendor who is comparing three agents at eleven at night into a valuation in your diary. Their patch, their stock, their words, and pages for the towns they intend to own.
From £10,000, and the website is yours. The full detail is on the pricing page.
If you are mid contract
Get the monthly figure in writing, ask about the notice period, and ask what you keep if you leave.
Questions
How much does a Spectre website cost?
Their page says zero setup fees and a simple monthly hosting fee, but no figure is published. You have to ask sales for the number.
Is a builder good enough for an estate agency?
For a new agency, yes, get something live. Once the website is genuinely competing for instructions against three other agents in the same town, the difference between assembled and designed starts to show up in the diary.
