We often get calls from real estate firms and property management companies wanting to know which real estate signs are the most effective. Sadly, not all properties are the same, so there is no cut and dry answer. As a matter of fact, the best signage option is based in large part on the property’s location, its appearance, if there are already buyers or renters in place, and the landscaping. Fortunately, at Vital Signs USA, we have plenty of experience providing the ideal commercial real estate signs for your project. Check out some of these options:
Banners
One of the best ways to promote your properties is with large banners displayed horizontally and covering the façade of the building. They let potential clients know which individual offices are for lease or whether the entire facility is for sale. Additionally, these signs can market your real estate business and provide your contact information.
Post and Panel Signs
Perhaps the most popular way to advertise a property is with post and panel site signs. There are two main types: one-panel and two-panel signs. Two-panel signs have three posts and are generally more popular since they can be seen from all directions. They are typically used to advertise whether a property is for sale or lease. They can be designed to last for many years, or we can use less expensive materials.
Post and panel signs are also important for displaying the names of the building’s tenants. This is an important feature for attracting new businesses because it shows that you make it easy for their customers to find them.
Monument Signs
Most buildings have a large monument sign. These markers were made to get the attention of everyone who passes by. So, it only makes sense to take advantage of their marketing power. We can place a brand new monument sign on the property that features your sales message, or consider updating an already existing sign with a “for sale” notation. If you keep the message generic, you can reuse the monument at other locations. We also recommend using sign foam for an affordable marketing tool.
Dimensional Letters
Many real estate firms pay so much attention to making their listings as visible as possible that they neglect their own branding. Your physical location also needs to be easy to find, and it needs to clearly advertise your brand. One way to do this is with dimensional letter building signs. Unless you have a specific color that is strongly linked to your brand, we recommend that most real estate agencies use aluminum letters for their signage. This material projects an image of professionalism and longevity in the industry: two characteristics that are important to any broker.
