2. Consider using Instagram as a way to instigate interest

Instagram is one great and amazing platform that you can use to market your property. Just as people use Instagram to post what’s going on in their lives, as a real estate agent, you can use this same platform to post pictures of your homes, write capturing captions about the pictures, targeting the right audience, that is, the real estate buyers.

You can also use Instagram to interact with the buyers or, rather, your customers through the comment section and direct messages. Instagram also allows you as a real estate agent to exhibit your expertise which, on the upside, helps reach a wide number of customers, given that Instagram is a huge user base platform.

3. Ensure your website is mobile responsive

Building a real estate website is one thing, but ensuring that the site is mobile-responsive is another. You should always have that at the back of your mind while building your real estate website. A mobile responsive website impacts the business positively.

For instance, when the site is mobile responsive, your customers don’t have to keep on resizing anything manually so as for them to view the content on your website while using their phones. Yes! it has to be an easy-breezy process for them, viewing your content from their phones.

Given that most real estate buyers use mobile phones or even tablets, it’s wise enough as a real estate agent to ensure your website is mobile responsive because, in one way or another, that will for sure drive way more traffic to your site, which again is what you really want as a seller.

4. Start writing real estate blogs

This is 2023, and everyone is now writing blogs concerning their business, what kind of products and services they offer, and so on. You are not an exception, for that matter, so it’s high time you take the chance and dive in.

I mean, the reader, in this case, may turn out to be one of your potential customers, so why not put all that information and expertise you have about real estate into writing? You’ll be surprised how much this can benefit you as a real estate agent.

5. Team up with other real estate professionals and influencers

Gone are the days when most real estate agents used to work against each other. Now they are working together in teams. This makes marketing even better and easier.

Interacting with other real estate professionals and becoming a team with them helps bring in better work-life balance, expands your business opportunities, and also helps in providing more effective presentations for your clients.

6. Start a YouTube channel

With YouTube comes video content, whereby video content is usually very important for any real estate business. For example, listing with video on real estate sites fosters more inquiries as compared to listing without video. YouTube has a high chance of making your videos go viral and get as many views from potential clients.

YouTube also helps generate a high amount of traffic to the video you post, as well as to your website as an agent. This is a great tool for real estate marketing that you can use for your real estate business.

7. Ask for reviews from your customers

Reviews are really helpful when it comes to decision-making in business, attracting more clients, and building trust with your brand and potential customers before meeting up with them. Most potential buyers will rule out your brand if the reviews they see are not enchanting to them.

Asking for reviews as an agent helps you build your reputation, given that most real estate buyers are always looking for sellers who have a good track record. Thus, the reviews they see help them with making decisions in terms of whether to buy property from you or not.

You have to see to it that you hire professional photographers to take photos and videos of the property you are selling because, trust me, you don’t want to have blurry images and videos on your site.
