If it's time to sell a house or a location you represent you must use real estate signs. There are many varieties to choose from. Because there are so many when it comes time to use them you may have some questions. How much should I pay? Where do I put these signs? How big should they be and how many of them do I need?
Okay, that may sound like a lot to take in for something so simple but these signs can really make a difference. Just think about it for a minute, a couple little signs that are hard to read verse a bunch of big, bold, eye catching signs, which do you think will do better? Which will give you better results?
The first step in the sign choosing process begins with what sign will fit your particular situation. I want to point out, if you have an agent selling your property for you then they will post up a large sign as well as post your property on the MLS so you may not even need to worry about signs.
Now, if you are someone who is going to sell their home on their own then you should get the trademark "for sale by owner sign." This sign is red and white and is very catchy to the eye.
One thing that's very important on this sign is to make sure the phone number you write on it is clear and easy to read.
In addition to this sign you may want to add a box that contains flyers in it which spells out all of the details of the property for the prospective buyer. Make sure to have all the information they need to contact you on this flyer.
One aspect people tend to overlook with real estate signs is the size of them. Remember, these signs will be by the road where pole will be driving by. This means you don't want them to struggle reading it as they drive by. The starting proper sign size for a lawn is about 18x24 inches and not really any smaller.
Once you have the signs you need you need to know where these signs go. The first spot is on the front lawn of the property for sale nearest the road side. From there you should move down the road to the nearest main street and place a sign on that road. After that the next best place would be a major intersection that is also near the property if possible.
So we have covered almost everything you need to know in regard to your real estate signs except the price. The price of these signs can be somewhat expensive for the good ones at your local retail outlet. So I would suggest buying these signs online because you can get more of them for the same price as your local store. I have included a link at the bottom of this article to a good starting point for your search.
One last tip I would like to share is adding balloons to your signs to get more attention. This is a great and very cheap way to get many more eyes on your signs. Balloons are cheap and they can be filled with helium or you can just blow them up and tape them on. Be sure to change them frequently.
Good luck with your success using real estate signs!
