Realtor Marketing Flyers

A well-designed flyer can be a powerful tool for open houses and local marketing. This guide covers best practices, design tips, and provides real examples to help you create flyers that grab attention and generate leads.

In our digital-first world, a tangible piece of marketing like a flyer can make a surprisingly strong impact. For realtors, property flyers are a staple for open houses, local mailings, and community bulletin boards. However, a poorly designed flyer will quickly find its way into the trash. To be effective, your flyer must be visually appealing, easy to read, and provide clear, compelling information that prompts action. This guide will walk you through the best practices for creating realtor marketing flyers that work.

Why Flyers Still Matter in 2025

While online marketing is crucial, print marketing holds a unique place in a realtor's toolkit. A physical flyer serves several key purposes:

  • Tangibility: It's a physical reminder of a property that potential buyers can take with them.
  • Local Focus: Perfect for 'geographic farming' and targeting specific neighborhoods with precision.
  • Professionalism: A high-quality flyer signals professionalism and attention to detail, reflecting positively on your brand.
  • Information at a Glance: It provides all essential information in a scannable format for busy prospects.

Best Practices for High-Converting Flyers

To ensure your flyer investment yields a positive return, follow these proven best practices:

  1. Use high-quality, professional photography of the property.
  2. Include a clear, compelling headline that grabs attention.
  3. Highlight 3-5 key features or benefits of the property.
  4. Use a clean, easy-to-read layout with plenty of white space.
  5. Include your professional headshot, name, contact information, and brokerage.
  6. Add a QR code that links directly to the online listing for more details and photos.
  7. Have a single, clear call-to-action (e.g., 'Scan for a Virtual Tour' or 'Call to Schedule a Showing').

Remember, the goal of a flyer is not to sell the house on its own, but to drive the prospect to the next step—whether that's visiting the online listing, watching a video tour, or calling you for a showing.
