Create a Real Estate Brochure That Seals the Deal

By Melanie Doncas | Designer Tutorials

When it comes to real estate, first impressions matter, and a great brochure helps you make one before a client ever steps foot in the door. Real estate brochures are printed or digital marketing materials that highlight key details about a newly-listed property, open house, or a real estate agent’s services. They’re typically folded pamphlets that include high-quality images, property specs, pricing info, and your contact details. The goal is to offer a quick, appealing snapshot that clients can refer back to as they make their decision.

Brochures can be used at open houses, mailed to potential buyers, left in info boxes, or handed out at real estate events. With the right content and design, they act as your 24/7 salesperson – always ready to make a great first impression.

With BeFunky’s Brochure Maker, designing standout marketing brochures is easier than ever. You don’t need expensive software or a design background – just choose a professionally designed template, drag in your own content, and make it your own in minutes.

Wondering what should be included in a real estate brochure or how to make a property brochure that stands out? We’ll walk you through every step in the process!

What Should Be Included in a Real Estate Brochure?

What you include depends on your brochure’s goal. For a property listing or open house, consider:

  • Property photos: Use high-quality images that highlight key features.
  • Listing details: Share square footage, rooms, amenities, and upgrades.
  • Neighborhood highlights: Mention schools, parks, and local attractions.
  • Contact info: Make it easy for buyers to reach you.
  • Call to action: Prompt readers to schedule a tour or visit your site.

For agent or agency brochures, include:

  • Intro and photo: Build trust with a bio and friendly headshot.
  • Services offered: Highlight what you do and what sets you apart.
  • Client testimonials: Add quotes or success stories.
  • Contact and next steps: Invite readers to connect or book a consultation.
