From a failing 33 to a perfect 100 — in 48 hours.

Mountain Rose Realty's legacy WordPress site was scoring 33 on Google's Performance audit and losing visitors before they even saw a listing. We rebuilt it in Next.js — pixel-perfect design, same content — and Google gave it a perfect 100.

The Challenge

Mountain Rose Realty is a high-end luxury real estate brand in Telluride, Colorado. Their WordPress site was visually beautiful but technically broken: visitors waited 2.8 seconds for the main content to appear, the layout jumped around violently (CLS of 0.5 — five times Google's 'poor' threshold), and 670ms of JavaScript blocking time meant the site was unusable while loading. Google's Performance score was 33 out of 100 — a failing grade that pushed them below every competitor in search rankings.

The Solution

We cloned the site pixel-perfect into a Next.js application. Same design, same content, same fonts, same listings — just rebuilt on modern architecture. Images are now served as WebP from a global CDN, JavaScript is split and deferred, and the entire site is pre-rendered as static HTML. No WordPress, no plugins, no PHP rendering on every request. Deployed to Vercel with zero hosting cost.

The Result

Google now scores the site a perfect 100 on Performance — landing them in the top 1% of all websites. Largest Contentful Paint dropped from 2.8 seconds to 0.6 seconds. Total Blocking Time went from 670ms to 20ms. Cumulative Layout Shift — the metric that measures how much the page jumps around — went from a catastrophic 0.5 to a near-perfect 0.012. Accessibility and SEO scores both jumped too. The client owns the code and can update it themselves using AI.
