Core Web Vitals for Real Estate Sites With Real Images and Real Content
Performance goals are achievable when image strategy, layout stability, font loading, and JavaScript budgets are handled from the start.

Protect LCP
The hero image should be correctly sized, prioritized, and stable. Large visual pages can still be fast when the first image is compressed and the text renders immediately.
Prevent CLS
Reserve space for images, cards, menus, and banners. A beautiful page loses trust quickly when content jumps while the user is reading.
Keep JavaScript Honest
Use server-rendered content for marketing pages, avoid unnecessary client components, and load interactive code only where the user actually needs it.
