If you are a licensed REALTOR in Florida, your IDX website needs to pull from the right MLS. Not a national aggregator that recycles stale Zillow data. Not a generic template that works the same in Iowa as it does in Orlando. You need a website built specifically for the Florida market — one that connects directly to Stellar MLS, the largest Multiple Listing Service in the state, and delivers accurate listing data to your buyers every single day.

I am Austin Munday, a licensed Florida REALTOR and the developer behind Austin's IDX Combinator. I built this platform because I was tired of paying hundreds of dollars per month to platforms that did not understand the Florida real estate market. I needed a fast, clean IDX website that pulled real Stellar MLS data across Central and West Florida — and now I build them for other agents at a fraction of what the big platforms charge.

What Is Stellar MLS?

Stellar MLS is the largest Multiple Listing Service in the state of Florida, serving more than 70,000 real estate professionals across 20 counties in Central and West Florida. It was formed through the merger of several regional MLS organizations, including My Florida Regional MLS (MFRMLS) and several smaller boards, creating a unified data platform that covers a massive geographic footprint from Daytona Beach down through Orlando, across to Tampa Bay, and south to the Treasure Coast. Stellar MLS maintains over 119,790 active listings at any given time, including residential, commercial, and land properties. For Florida agents, Stellar MLS is the backbone of their business — it is where listings are entered, where buyer searches begin, and where deals get done. An IDX website built on Stellar MLS data gives your clients direct access to the same listings you see in the MLS every day.

20-County Coverage Across Florida

Every IDX website from Austin's IDX Combinator pulls from the full Stellar MLS data feed. That means your buyers can search listings across all 20 counties in the Stellar MLS footprint — from a single website, under your brand.

Orange Osceola Seminole Lake Volusia Brevard Polk Hillsborough Pinellas Pasco Manatee Sarasota Hernando Citrus Sumter Marion Flagler St. Lucie Indian River Martin

This coverage includes the major Florida real estate markets that drive the bulk of transaction volume in the state. The Orlando metro — Orange, Osceola, Seminole, and Lake counties — is one of the fastest-growing housing markets in the country, fueled by a steady influx of relocation buyers from the Northeast and Midwest. The Tampa Bay metro — Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Pasco counties — consistently ranks among the top housing markets in the Southeast. And markets like Brevard County (the Space Coast), Polk County (Lakeland), and the Sarasota-Manatee corridor attract a steady mix of snowbirds, retirees, and remote workers looking for waterfront and golf community properties.

119,790+ Active Listings, Updated Every 15 Minutes

Your IDX website does not show stale or syndicated data. It pulls directly from the Stellar MLS data feed, which refreshes every 15 minutes. When a new listing hits the MLS at 9:00 AM, it appears on your website by 9:15 AM. The same applies to price reductions, status changes, new photos, and updated property descriptions. In a market like Florida — where well-priced homes in Orlando, Tampa, and St. Petersburg can attract multiple offers within hours — that speed matters.

The data feed covers all property types available in Stellar MLS: single-family residential, condos and townhomes, multi-family, commercial, and vacant land. Whether your buyer is searching for a starter home in Kissimmee, a waterfront condo in Clearwater, or a commercial investment property in Lakeland, the listings are there — accurate, current, and displayed under your branding.

Why Florida Agents Need IDX

Florida is one of the most competitive real estate markets in the United States. The state attracts snowbirds from the Northeast, international investors from Latin America and Canada, military families relocating to bases along the Gulf Coast, and remote workers choosing Florida for its tax advantages and lifestyle. Every one of these buyer segments starts their home search online — often months before they set foot in the state.

If a buyer searches "homes for sale in Orlando" or "Tampa waterfront condos" and finds your website, they should land on a fast, professional IDX site that lets them search real MLS listings immediately. Not a WordPress blog with a few featured listings. Not a Zillow link. Your own branded website with the full Stellar MLS feed — the same data they would see if they walked into your office and asked you to run a search.

Agents who rely on third-party portals like Zillow and Realtor.com are giving their leads to the platform instead of capturing them directly. An IDX website with client registration, saved searches, and listing alerts keeps those leads on your site and in your pipeline. When a buyer creates an account on your website, you see their activity — what they search, what they save, how often they visit. That is actionable intelligence that Zillow will never give you.

What You Get with Austin's IDX Combinator

Every IDX website I build includes the full feature set a Florida agent needs to capture and convert online leads. Here is what is included at $85 per month:

  • Full Stellar MLS IDX coverage — 119,790+ listings across 20 Florida counties
  • 15-minute data updates — new listings, price changes, and status updates appear within minutes
  • Custom branding — your logo, colors, headshot, bio, and contact info throughout the site
  • Your own domain + SSL — not a subdomain on someone else's platform
  • Map-based IDX search — buyers search by map, filters, city, zip, or county
  • HD listing photos — served from a dedicated Cloudflare CDN for fast page loads
  • Client accounts — buyers register, save listings, and set up email alerts
  • Agent dashboard — see which clients are active, what they are viewing, and what they save
  • Mobile responsive — works across phones, tablets, and desktops
  • Fully managed — I handle setup, hosting, maintenance, and updates

There are no long-term contracts. After the initial setup, your subscription is month-to-month. You are not locked into an annual commitment like you would be with Real Geeks, and you are not paying $500+ per month like you would with kvCORE. At $85 per month, Austin's IDX Combinator is the most affordable way for a Florida REALTOR to have a fully functional, professionally branded IDX website.

Frequently Asked Questions

Stellar MLS does not cover every county in Florida, but it is the largest MLS in the state by a wide margin. Stellar MLS covers 20 counties across Central and West Florida, including Orange, Osceola, Seminole, Lake, Volusia, Brevard, Polk, Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco, Manatee, Sarasota, Hernando, Citrus, Sumter, Marion, Flagler, St. Lucie, Indian River, and Martin counties. This includes the Orlando metro, Tampa Bay, Lakeland, Daytona Beach, and the Treasure Coast. South Florida markets like Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach are served by Miami MLS and BeachesMLS respectively. If you serve buyers and sellers in Central or West Florida, Stellar MLS covers your territory. Austin's IDX Combinator is built specifically for agents on Stellar MLS, so your website pulls from the same data feed you see in the MLS every day.
Your IDX website displays listings from the Stellar MLS data feed, which covers 20 Florida counties. If a listing is in Stellar MLS, it shows up on your site — regardless of which county or city it is in within the Stellar MLS footprint. You can show properties from Orlando to Tampa to Sarasota to Daytona Beach, all from a single website. However, listings from other MLS systems like Miami MLS or BeachesMLS would not appear on a Stellar MLS IDX feed. If you need coverage across multiple MLS systems, that is a different configuration — reach out to Austin to discuss your specific coverage needs. For most Florida agents working Central and West Florida markets, Stellar MLS provides more than enough coverage with 119,790+ active listings.
Listing data on your IDX website updates every 15 minutes. This means when a new listing hits Stellar MLS, it appears on your website within 15 minutes. The same goes for price changes, status updates, and photo additions. This refresh rate is critical in Florida's fast-moving real estate market where homes in hot areas like Winter Park, South Tampa, and downtown Orlando can go under contract within hours of being listed. Your buyers see accurate, current data — not stale listings that went pending two days ago. The 15-minute update cycle covers all listing fields: price, status, photos, descriptions, open house schedules, and property details. Austin handles the data pipeline so you never have to worry about syncing or troubleshooting feed issues.
Yes, you need to be a member of Stellar MLS to have an IDX website that displays Stellar MLS listings. IDX stands for Internet Data Exchange, and it is a program that allows MLS members to display each other's listings on their websites. Stellar MLS requires that you be a licensed REALTOR and an active MLS member in good standing to participate in IDX. If you are already a Stellar MLS member, you are eligible — there is no additional IDX fee beyond your standard MLS dues. Austin handles the IDX authorization paperwork and technical setup on your behalf. If you are not yet a Stellar MLS member but are a licensed Florida real estate agent, you can join through your local REALTOR association. The process typically takes a few days once your application is submitted.
Right now, Austin's IDX Combinator is built specifically for agents on Stellar MLS. The platform, data feed integration, and photo pipeline are all optimized for Stellar MLS data. If you are on a different Florida MLS — such as Miami MLS, BeachesMLS, or Realtor Association of Greater Fort Lauderdale — Austin's IDX Combinator would not currently pull your MLS data. However, Austin is actively exploring integrations with additional Florida MLS systems. If you are interested in an IDX website for a non-Stellar MLS market, reach out to Austin directly at 863-529-3611 or austin@austinsidxcombinator.com. He can let you know the timeline for your MLS and potentially prioritize the integration based on demand.
