Question by : How can I create a database to show real estate listings on a website?
I would like to be able to put the basic property information (location, beds, baths, etc.) into a “database” and then be able to easily call this information onto different parts of a website for a “Featured Property”, and then a “Property Listings” page with a different layout. I’m not sure how to do this!

To accomplish something like this you’ll need to do some back-end programming. You can do it with static html but if you truly want dynamic information, you’ll need to build the site with something other than pure html. The easiest and widely supported by the majority of the web hosting companies is PHP (dynamic scripting language) and MySQL database.
For beginners, you can read through this tutorial:

There are a lot of other tutorials available on the web. Just Google for it.
Other technologies that can be used are Java and .Net to name a few.
