Give Your Real Estate Business a Boost with Blog Ideas that Home Sellers Love

You may find it hard to believe that even professional bloggers hit a blank wall when it comes to coming up with ideas for blog posts on a regular basis. No wonder it must be harder for you because writing may not be your forte. You are a real estate agent, so you’re great at representing property buyers and sellers, but not writing professionally.

However, being not good at blogging should not be your excuse. There are enough studies to prove that if you blog consistently, you will be able to generate leads through your website and social media channels.

If you keep staring at a blank screen every time you sit in front of a computer, you need to know there are many tried-and-tested blog ideas related to every aspect of your business. All you need to do is give these ideas a personal touch and make them unique so that they appeal to your specific audience.

Let’s discuss in this article some guidelines about blog ideas that potential sellers will love:

Make your blog’s headline attention grabbing

While trying to find blog ideas for sellers on the Internet, you will come across many blog posts like ‘how to sell your home’, ‘Things to consider when selling a home for the first time’ or ‘Tips for selling your home fast’.

We are not saying these blog posts are not good, but you can make yours stand out by ensuring headlines are stronger and attention grabbing.

The best headlines catch a reader’s attention quickly by putting emphasis on the value they bring to the table. All sellers want to get the property off their hands quickly, but will writing a blog post with the headline ‘how to sell your home fast’ be good enough? Well, there are two problems with this headline:

It’s very generic
It won’t grab your audience attention immediately

So what does a good headline look like when you write blog posts for home sellers?

Well, think about it: did you help a homeowner sell his or her home within the first week of putting it on the market? Did you use certain strategies to help your client sell 50% faster than other homes in the same neighborhood?

You can use this information to give a personal tough to your headline.

‘How to sell your home 50% faster’

‘How to sell your home within the first week’

Keep in mind, you need to prove what you are claiming. Explain the strategies you used for selling your client’s home 50 percent faster or within the first week.

A great way to do this is to write blog posts on market trends and provide tips based on data.

For example if home are selling faster in your area due to a recent improvement in housing market or the job sector, you can write a blog post titled:
