While real estate agents usually compete against each other for business, they are also "bound together" under a large banner such as their parent brokerage. Most large brokerages face the dilemma of managing and promoting individual agents while also marketing their brand online, and this is hard to manage in terms of real estate search engine optimization.
In addition to this, the larger brokerage sites are usually extreme complex in nature because of the high levels of functionality and search features that are essential on these sites. Such sites usually need an area to promote each of their agents online, but multiple listing services are usually designed without keeping in mind real estate search engine optimization.
Last, but not least, there is extremely stiff competition in real estate SEO when it comes to keywords, as each individual agent as well as the brokerages are all competing for the same keywords.
