I do something similar and just have a virtual directory set up in IIS. The data displayed is based on the variable part of the domain (ie the realtor's name in your case). In my case, we don't have direct access to the DB on this server for security reasons, so we are using xml files for the data (don't like the solution, but with our security restrictions...not much of a choice). The logic determines the data directory to read the xml files. You could do something similar to determine the id so that you are pulling the right information for that specific realtor. All of the sub domains point to their virtual directory, which in turn physically points to the same code.
