The verdict in three sentences
A Korhogo real estate agency living only on Facebook misses high-intent queries: "office rental Korhogo" (180 searches/month) and "land Korhogo" (240 searches/month). A redesign with a listings search engine (instead of a static list) multiplies engagement by 3, and a WhatsApp Business button for scheduling visits lifts contacts by +45 %. Budget 300 to 550K FCFA, 10 to 14 days, and 22,000 FCFA/month maintenance.
Why Facebook alone is no longer enough in Korhogo
A Facebook page buries listings in the feed: a post from two weeks ago is unfindable. The prospect searching "land Korhogo" goes through Google, not your feed. Without a site with a filtering search engine (neighborhood, price, property type), you're invisible at the exact moment the decision is made.
| Criterion | Facebook page only | 2026 redesign with engine |
|---|---|---|
| Filter search | No | Neighborhood / price / type |
| Engagement per listing | base 100 | x3 |
| Google visibility "land Korhogo" | none | top 3 targeted |
| Contact method | comment / DM | direct WhatsApp Business |
| Qualified contacts | base | +45 % |
| Listing findable at day 15 | no | yes (dedicated URL) |
The listings engine gives each property a dedicated URL, indexable by Google and shareable on WhatsApp. That's the difference between a property that vanishes and one that works for you for months.

Mini case study
Soro's agency in Korhogo posted listings only on Facebook: ~12 contacts/month, hard to track. After a 460,000 FCFA redesign (listings engine included) delivered in 12 days, with WhatsApp Business and local SEO: engagement per listing triples, and qualified contacts rise to ~17/month (+45 %). If the agency closes just one extra office rental/month with a 150,000 FCFA commission, it generates 1.8M FCFA/year in additional revenue. The redesign pays back in about three months.

How much does a real estate agency website redesign in Korhogo cost in 2026?
Between 300,000 and 550,000 FCFA for the site, plus 100,000 FCFA for the listings engine module with filters. Monthly maintenance is about 22,000 FCFA.
Why is a listings engine better than a static list?
A static list forces visitors to scroll through everything; an engine filters by neighborhood, price and property type. As a result engagement per listing is multiplied by 3 and each property gets a Google-indexable URL.
Does WhatsApp Business really increase contacts?
Yes: a WhatsApp Business button on each listing lets prospects schedule a visit in one tap. We see +45 % more contacts versus the classic form or a Facebook comment.
Will the site rank for "land Korhogo" and "office rental Korhogo"?
That's the goal of the included local SEO. These queries carry 240 and 180 searches/month respectively; well optimized, the site targets top 3 within 4 to 8 weeks.
How long to deliver the site?
Between 10 and 14 days for a redesign with listings engine and WhatsApp Business, optimized photos included.
