if it was me, i would just take the plunge and start the page again from scratch. you've got so many different divs - divs with ids, classes, ids and classes, divs inside other divs - that it's going to be pain to update that page.
1) you can only have one instance of each id on each page. and you repeat id's loads of times. if you want to repeat it you should use a class instead. but most of the ids you repeat also have their own classes.
2) you've got divs around individual lists, which is fine, but they are already block elements, and then you have more divs inside the list elements, which are block elements as well. that means you've got a block around a block, and more blocks in the blocks which is inside the block. i would scrap all of that.
put the id, or the class on the list instead, and the list elements, and do away with all the divs.
eg.
instead of
<div class="realtor_info_wrapper">
<ul>
<li class="realtor_info">
<div id="realtor_field_label_name" class="realtor_label">
name
</div>
<div id="realtor_field_value_name" class="realtor_value">
Lorenzo Girotto
</div>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
do something like this:
<ul class="realtor_info">
<li class="realtor_name">
<strong>Name:</strong> Lorenzo Girotto
</li>
</ul>
you've also got divs around images, when you could just apply the id's directly to the images.
CSS is supposed to reduce the amount of clutter on the page, and reduce page weight, and bandwidth, but you've gone a bit overboard. got a touch of divitis!
i really hope that when it is finished these little quirky problems fix themselves.
