Property Hants in 2018

19/1/2018

A belated Happy New Year from us here at PropertyHants.co.uk, we hope you enjoyed the festive season and are looking forward to 2018.

According to the pundits the property market is expected to be active for 2018, with potential small growth in prices outside of London. Hampshire should remain a very popular area or buyers, because of its excellent transport links and beautiful countryside, who wouldn't want to live in Hampshire?

Here at PropertyHants we will keep the auctions page updated and want to improve the Estate Agents page, we will keep the Top Hants Estate Agents List, under review, we stopped updating it last June as, we were having problems with messages/tweets getting through to players and had seen engagement drop dramatically, we think this was because we were falling foul of Twitter automation rules. We also want to add a page on Homebuy, Shared Ownership and other government schemes available to help buyers.

We would also be pleased to share any relevant guest blogs and will continue to share to our Facebook Page and Twitter account

Have a great start to 2018

We use a leaderboard package from Rise Global to generate a weekly leaderboard of the best Hampshire Estate Agents using social media marketing in the UK, called Top Hants Estate Agents

The ranking is calculated using the independent social media score from Klout.com for 80% of the score and the remaining 20% is available based on the number of tweets agents make in the week including the hashtag #PropertyHants

We have found about 150 estate agent firms or estate agent individuals accounts on Twitter and have limited the number of players to a 100, to manage the costs involved.

The purpose of the leaderboard is to highlight those estate agents using social media to marketing and promote their services and properties, whilst generating engagement and a little bit of competition.

Social Media and Digital Signage For Estate Agents

11/7/2016

Property is a timeless market. Yet the real estate sector is evolving. Has your agency embraced its two greatest developments: Social Media and Digital Signage?

Social Media - An Estate Agent's Secret Weapon

People have always been curious about other people's houses. Those not even necessarily looking to move browse property listings at the back of newspapers. It's easy to predict that following estate agencies on social media is likely to become today's equivalent.

The modern estate agency can reach more potential clients than ever before. You don't have to wait for them to come to you either. Someone on the other side of the country might tweet that they're looking to move to your area - let them know that you want to help.

Making a good impression when a client visits your office is crucial to securing their business. The same goes for visitors to your social media sites. So what should an estate agent have on their Facebook page? In addition to the latest property listings, your agency should consider publishing client testimonials. Nothing encourages potential clients more than impartial evidence of your great service.

Buying or renting a property is a stressful time for most of us. It's imperative for estate agencies to put their clients at ease. A brilliant way to do this through social media is to field queries on Twitter or proactively offer information answering FAQs. Why not start a hashtag?

What's even hotter than Facebook and Twitter at the moment? Instagram and Snapchat. These platforms are ideal for real estate marketing. Showcase property pictures on Instagram and boost your audience through strategic tagging. You could reblog pictures sent in from happy clients who've picked up their keys. Building an audience on Snapchat is just as worthwhile. Unlike with other platforms, you know you have your audience's attention. Your agents can send snaps, even short videos as they tour properties.

Digital Signage - A Window Revolution

Your agency is impressing on social media. Great. You're engaging with potential clients you've never reached before. But what about those passing by your office window everyday? With everyone glued to screens, how are you going to catch attention on the high-street?

Digital signage is the second revolution to hit the real estate sector.

There are perks for everyone. With traditional window displays, staff have to download property listings, print and spend time putting up ads. The process is cumbersome - there's only so much room to play with, and ads have to be changed regularly. With digital signage for estate agents, your window feels larger - able to display a reel of properties with changing photos, rather than a set few with static images. It also becomes self-sufficient: updating its listings when properties are sold and automatically adding new stock.

Digital signage for estate agents has two additional benefits. Firstly, it's an affordable way for any estate agency to convey high-quality. After all, an agency with an impressive office is more likely to attract clients with larger budgets looking for luxury property. Secondly, digital signage for estate agents works perfectly with your social media. Your Twitter feed and Facebook testimonials can be integrated around your digitised listings. You can even introduce QR codes linking to property profiles to boost audience engagement.

Using social media will just be part of the property sales process, but used effectively, through digital signage, you can greatly improve your sales results.
