Selling real estate is a difficult proposition, whether you are a homeowner or a realtor. However, there are some tools that you can use to improve your chances of selling by attracting the attention of potential customers. Once you decide you want to sell a property, you have the daunting task of getting the word out so that everyone knows the home is available. Posting real estate signs near the property and in other relevant locations is an effective way to spread the word.
Some homeowners associations may have rules regarding the placement of these signs in your yard. It is important to ensure that you do not violate any size or location restrictions when posting For Sale signs.
Owner signs
For Sale by Owner signs are posted by homeowners who do not want help from any real estate agent. These signs are generally simple as they have little information that needs to be included.
Sale of signs by agents
Real estate signs posted by real estate agents should include much more information. Such signs serve the dual purpose of attracting a potential customer’s attention to the property and promoting the broker and agent. These signs typically contain the agency name and address, office phone number, company logo, and website information. Some signs may also include additional panels with information such as the price reduction, the actual sale price, and the agent’s cell phone number.
Placing signs
The basic reason for putting up the sign is to get the attention of any potential or interested buyer. Once you’ve designed the perfect sign, it needs to be positioned well for maximum effect.
- One vital aspect to remember is that the sign must be visible from the street. When placing the sign, you should be aware of parked cars, trees, and even telephone poles that could affect the visibility of the sign.
- It is a wonderful idea to place the sign near the sidewalk.
- For corner houses, it would be wise to install two signs, one on each street.
- There is no point in putting up signs in places that don’t attract too many visitors. If the home is in a remote location where traffic is limited, consider asking homeowners who live closer to busy streets if they could put up directional signs in their yard.
Real estate information signs are an effective and inexpensive way to advertise your property. You can customize these signs to meet all your requirements.
