There are many types of content available for content marketing, but the most effective types of content marketing for real estate are:

1. Property Blogs/Articles

Property blogs and property articles are one of the most popular content types available. It is estimated that around 70 million new blog posts are created each month.

The reason why blog posts are so popular is because the Internet has an insatiable appetite for content, so while the supply of content may be high, but the demand for content is even higher.

The trick is to have great content, which is specific to say the real estate industry, and your content will find an audience, especially since so many people want to know more about real estate information.

Best Practices For Real Estate Blogs/Articles

The quickest way to become a good blog writer is by following the content marketing experts, and trying to be like them.

Here’s the process you can use:

Create an outline for your blog/article you wish to write – Before you start to write your single paragraph, figure out the main statements you wish to make. 

  1. What do you want your readers/clients to take away from your article?
  2. Then, arrange your statements into a logical order, and put them into your blog format.
  3. Use a time tested format for your articles – Introduce the problem in the first paragraph, present three arguments on paragraphs 2, 3, and 4, and summarise your arguments on paragraph 5.
  4. Do your research – Find facts and quotes from property experts and authoritative figures that back up your statement.
  5. Write your property articles first draft – Remember that your first draft is just a first draft, so it’s something that you will work on and improve.
  6. Once your first draft is done, go back to it, and improve your article – Break up the text blocks. Never write more than 6 sentences in a single paragraph when publishing your article online. Also remember to use images, videos and charts that supplement your statements.
  7. Review and revise your article – Re-read your article after stepping away for a few days and make any changes as necessary.
  8. Before you publish your article on your blog – Ask a friend or colleague to read over your article, and give you their opinions on it. Take their suggestions, and use it to put together your final draft.
  9. Publish your final draft on your blog – You should also track your article’s success, and use what you learned and measure to improve your future property articles.

2. Infographics

Infographics are one of the most popular type of content  property agents share.

This is because infographics are based on data, and easy to read. They are also easy to share on social media, they can be embedded in your blog articles, and they can direct more traffic to your real estate website.

If a client likes your infographics, they can share it with their contacts, and you’ll reap the benefits of more exposure to your personal real estate brand.

Best Practices For Infographics

Infographics are essentially a mix of real estate data, quick-facts, education, and statistics.

But it’s important to focus on the following:

Beautiful Design – Infographics is all about the presentation. A nice and appealing design will get more attention and will encourage your audience to share it.

Valuable Property Data and Meaningful Statistics – Infographics can display a large amount of valuable data and information in a condensed package. Just make sure you present them in an interesting and engaging way.

Your Branding – Make it clear that you and your real estate company are seen as the one that created the infographic.

4. Real Estate Videos

Video is currently the new 2021 king of content. Video combines visuals and audio in a way that traditional writing simply cannot compete against.

And in today’s fast paced world, people want to consume their content easily and quickly. People want to know what they want to know in the more easily condensed and consumable way. Speed is what people want. So you need to take advantage of that desire with quick, punchy real estate videos.

Best Practices For Real Estate Videos

When it comes to video, many beginners think that the higher the production  cost and value, the better the video will turn out to be. But that’s not always the case. The actual most important thing for a video to be good is the value of its content.

As long as you’re providing lots of value, your viewers will appreciate your videos, remain engaged with your videos and will come back for more.

Having said that, quality also does matter to a certain extent. If you can afford to have great production values, and can afford it, by all means, do it. Video is a visual medium, so the better your actual visuals, the better your final product will be and the higher value that will be attributed to it from your viewer base.
