If you’re struggling to find real examples of effective real estate social media posts, you’re not alone. I know plenty of agents (even top producers) who sit staring at their phones waiting for inspiration to strike. You might laugh, but it’s actually a big problem.
Algorithms on Facebook and Instagram favor video, which is time-consuming and sometimes expensive to make. You can’t just wing it on social media anymore. Having a game plan is essential.
To help you get inspired for your next viral post, we put together this list of 147 real estate social media post ideas that will work on Facebook, Instagram, or any platform. For many of these ideas, we also include real-world viral examples, so you don’t have to start from square one. And, as a bonus, we threw in three free social media templates you can download today.
