The real estate industry goes through many ups and downs. (Mostly ups, though. Have you seen the prices?) The fluctuation depends on many factors, but you can overcome these if you have the right real estate marketing strategies with you.
1. Website
Regardless of what market you operate in, it has become necessary in this age to have a professional website to accommodate your clientele. For real estate, a website should work with functionality as well as aesthetics. A good real estate website should provide the necessary information in minimum time and with easy navigation. The site should provide all the relevant information i.e., price, location, specifications, high-definition photographs, as well as contact, office address, and timings for better customer service.
2. Photography & Video Walkthrough
Photographs, at minimum, are an absolute necessity in the real estate market. Customers want to see beforehand what property they might be interested in. To make your website or social media page better, it is recommended to hire a professional photographer for high-quality images. To take your photography game up a notch, you can shoot video walkthroughs of the property or take a Matterport 3D scan of the area for a virtual tour. This not only saves time for the buyers but also ensures that only serious buyers contact you for a deal.
3. Social Media
Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, and even TikTok can be a good marketplace to advertise your real estate business. Posting photos and videos on these platforms and using the right tags can make your message relevant in the market. Getting on the newest trends and hiring influencers to market your services is also a good strategy to start gaining followers and an audience.

Zillow is another great way for real estate advertisement as it is free and has millions of users. It is one of the primary sites that most real estate buyers or sellers go to for their business. Hence, having a Zillow profile will keep you in the spotlight.
