Dominate Twitter: 15 Ideas for Real Estate Tweets

Written by Irina Jordan | Sep 14, 2015 3:00:00 PM

With the right use of hashtags and engaging tweets you can dominate Twitterverse with elegance and ease. When tweeting, keep the following mix of content in mind: share other people's tweets 50% of the time and the other 50% of the time send you own. Your tweets need to educate and entertain – not sell. Out of 10 tweets sent, only one can be promotional - you want your Twitter followers to view you as an industry thought leader and not a pushy self-centered real estate agent. You also want to stay hyper-local to foster a sense of community and trust.

Here are 15 ideas for real estate tweets to get you started:

  1. Interesting local news related to real estate.
  2. Welcome a new local business to town.
  3. Share a local event, such as a holiday get together or farmers market.
  4. Talk about local running and biking trails, parks and playgrounds.
  5. Shares news about a local sports team.
  6. Share a video about organization tips for your home.
  7. Share a story about your neighborhood.
  8. Link to weather safety tips for the season.
  9. Share your own or someone else’s blog post.
  10. Share a practical tip of the day.
  11. Recognize local heroes and businesses.
  12. Highlight a great house design idea.
  13. Start a local Pet-of-the-Month feature.
  14. Share an interesting historical fact about your area.
  15. Most importantly: reply to any tweets coming your way.

Now go on and start tweeting your heart out. Be authentic and friendly. Stay consistent and your efforts will pay off.
