We know that you spend a lot of time making your real estate listings shine – it uses all your creative juices to make a listing appealing. With millions of listings out there, it is essential to learn how to make your real estate listing stand out.
Wondering How to Make Your Real Estate Listing Stand Out?

Virtual home tours get 87% more views than homes with only still photos.
Bonus Tip: Don’t Forget to Show Off the Neighborhood
While lots of other agents are remembering to include the above tips in their listings, here’s one tip that can put you above the rest.
Prospective clients want to know about more than just the house they are buying. The neighborhood is a huge selling feature (we don’t say, location, location, location, for nothing). Show off these highlights, too:
- Schools
- Local stores
- Walking trails
- Coffee shops
- Local farms
- Landscaping companies
- Charities unique to your area
- Restaurants
When you show off all that the neighborhood has to offer, your clients feel like they already belong when they move in. Even better, you get the chance to position yourself as a leader in your community.
Your biggest bonus of all: By interviewing and bringing business leaders and community members together on one website, you bring great value to your community.
