How I'd approach it.
Valuations come first
For an agent, a valuation request is the enquiry that matters most. It's in the header on every page, leads the homepage, and has its own short form that asks for the basics first.
Area guides for local search
People search by neighbourhood: “estate agent Redland”, “houses for sale Bishopston”. A real page for each area the agent covers, with useful local detail, gives Google something specific to rank.
Listings that are easy to keep current
Properties come and go weekly. Each listing is one entry of data that builds its card, its page and its area page. On a real site this would come straight from the agent's property software, so the website is never behind Rightmove.
Fast on a phone
Most property browsing happens on a phone, often on the move. Light pages, properly sized photos and no heavy plugins keep it quick.
