Why This Playbook Matters
You help clients find their dream homes or sell at top dollar—but are you showing up where buyers and sellers spend their time?
In 2025, social media isn’t optional it’s your digital first impression.
Industry Metrics:
77% of real estate prospects research agents online before contacting
44% of buyers found their agent via social media or online presence
Agents who post 3–5 times a week generate 4x more inquiries
Yet most real estate businesses:
Don’t post consistently
Don’t use content that builds local authority
Don’t automate follow-ups from social engagement
Social media = trust, visibility, and repeat business—when powered by a system like HighLevel.

Step 1: Build a Powerful Local Presence
Why It Matters
Your next client is already online. If they can't find you—or trust you—another agent wins the listing.
1.1 Choose the Right Platforms for Real Estate
Platform | Best Use Case |
---|---|
Local visibility, reviews, open house events | |
Listings photos, stories, reels | |
B2B referrals, investor networking | |
YouTube | Neighborhood tours, market updates |
GBP (Google) | Reviews + contact hub + SEO for agents |
Use Case:
An agent in Denver posted weekly “Neighborhood Feature Friday” reels on IG & FB—within 60 days, they doubled inbound buyer leads from social.
Step 2: Post Content That Sells You Without Selling
Why It Matters
No one wants “Just Sold” spam all day. But smart, helpful, and human content builds your reputation and drives DM inquiries.
2.1 What to Post
Content Type | Example Post |
---|---|
Property Spotlights | “Take a peek inside this renovated 3-bed in East Austin” |
Buyer Education | “Top 3 things NOT to do before closing on your mortgage” |
Seller Advice | “Why staging your home can increase sale price by up to 20%” |
Behind the Scenes | “We just negotiated $15K off asking for our client ?” |
Testimonials | “Here’s what Julie said after selling with us…” |
Local Features | “Why people love living in [Your Area] — Top 5 walkable coffee spots” |
Content Rule: 80% value & engagement, 20% direct offers

2.2 Hashtag & Keyword Strategy
Instagram/Facebook: #FirstTimeBuyer #JustListed #HomeGoals
LinkedIn: #RealEstateMarketing #HomeSellingTips
Google Posts: “[City] Realtor”, “Top Agent in [Neighborhood]”
Tip: Always tag your city & neighborhoods in captions for local SEO.
Step 3: Use Smart Ads to Fill Your Pipeline
Why It Matters
Only 5–10% of your followers see organic posts. Ads put your listings and value in front of the right people—fast.
3.1 High-Impact Ad Campaign Ideas
Facebook Lead Ads: “Want to know what your home is worth in this market? Get your free report.”
Instagram Reels Ads: Property walk-through with CTA to “Book a Tour”
Retargeting Ads: Re-engage site visitors with a new listing or offer
Google LSAs: For “top agents near me” and “sell my home [city]”
Use Case:
An agent in Sacramento spent $250 on FB ads promoting a “Get Your Free CMA” funnel—generated 9 seller leads and booked 4 listing consults in 10 days.
3.2 Targeting That Converts
ZIP code + 10–15 mile radius
Age: 30–65+
Interests: Real estate, home improvement, moving soon, mortgage
Custom audiences: Website visitors, past leads, Instagram engagers
3.3 Budget Recommendations
Business Stage | Suggested Ad Spend |
---|---|
Solo Agent | $10/day ($300/month) |
Small Team | $25/day ($750/month) |
Multi-Agent Office | $50+/day ($1,500+/month) |
