One of the effects of the Covid-induced contraction we see in the real estate sector is the low prices we currently see in South Africa at the moment. The contraction is, of course, in contrast to the growth we saw last year. The market currently favours buyers as sellers are forced to take lower prices than they would pre-Covid 19. This puts more marketing stress on estate agents.
Property sellers can use Print marketing to ride the COVID-19 pandemic
Without proper marketing, first-time homebuyers may not be aware of the opportunity presented to them right now. With most people staying at home due to the COVID-19 pandemic how are you going to conduct your business? Online? All you need is a little creativity and consistency in using Print media to reach your audience.
Print your real estate Flyers to advertise available properties. Leaflets and Brochures are perfect as leave-behinds as you do not have to physically hand them to someone or interact with an individual personally. Using lawn and yard Signs is one of the best ways to reach out to potential buyers. As they search their dream neighborhood, a for sale sign or coming soon sign can grab their attention quickly. Virtual tour Booklets and catalogs are also a great way to show clients potential homes while still adhering to social distancing protocols.
The Covid 19 threat will not go away, at least until we have a vaccine. Until the virus is under control, the real estate industry must reimagine the way it shows houses, for example, by organising smaller private viewings to minimise the risk o infection.
Minuteman Press in St. Georges Park has a line of health and safety printed materials and products to help you protect customers and comply with Covid 19 regulations. As well as social distancing stickers, we also have face masks and shields. Contact us today to discuss your options.
