How to Easily Develop Real Estate Newsletter Content Ideas

6 Minute Read

When it comes to thinking about creating content, I know it may seem overwhelming and potentially exhausting to constantly think of new ideas. But it doesn’t have to if you know your ideal client and what they need or what they find interesting and what is relevant for the time of year.

Think outside the box

Around Valentine’s Day, are you creating content around the best flower shops, chocolate shops and romantic restaurants? You may be thinking, “What does that have to do with real estate?” The answer is EVERYTHING. Not only is this content relevant for the time of year, it showcases that you’re an expert in the particular neighbourhoods you are targeting. You are the one to talk to about where to move, places to go in the area, where the schools are, everything.

You are the resource. The neighbourhood lifestyle expert. And if you can take photos of yourself living the lifestyle, even better. Because people respond and pay attention to stories, so you need to be part of the story you’re telling.

I get it though: you may think that no one cares about you going to a coffee shop and seeing a photo of it. But they will care if they’re thinking about moving to that area. It will tell your audience that you know everything there is to know about your target area.

Your ideal clients’ perspective

What are buyers thinking about when deciding to move to an area? What’s around, where are the shops, the restaurants. How about sellers? Do they want someone who is an expert in their area? This is how it all ties in with your service.

The point is to lead with value. Give your database of past clients and new leads a reason to follow you outside of your core services. But what’s great is that you can seamlessly incorporate your current listings and sales into your newsletters as well.
