CREATING CONTENT FOR THE REAL ESTATE SECTOR
We produce expert content for the real estate sector, serving property managers, developers, appraisers, investors and more. We help real estate professionals to raise their profile and communicate better with their network.
COMMUNICATION CHALLENGES IN THE REAL ESTATE SECTOR
Many countries are in the throes of a housing crisis that is affecting all areas of the industry. The real estate sector, which is already fiercely competitive, needs to show resilience to cope with the situation. As tourism can testify, in times of crisis, it’s important to refocus on your values and keep communicating. Working on your corporate communication is a way to get your voice heard and lay the groundwork for a rebound.
1. BOLSTER YOUR BRAND IMAGE
In a competitive sector such as real estate, working on your brand image is vital because it reflects your company’s professionalism. The challenge is to stand out from the rest. Besides visual elements, such as your logo or corporate colours, your brand image encompasses your overall approach to communication. This includes the tone you adopt, the types of content that you share and the contact points that the company maintains with stakeholders, be they customers, partners or investors. By honing key messages and angles, your company can control the narrative surrounding it and make an impression.
2. SHARE YOUR VALUES AND COMMITMENTS
Right now, the real estate sector accounts for over 25% of greenhouse gases in developed countries, 37% of energy consumption and 40% of waste produced.
As rulemaking advances and buyers show more interest in green property, the sector needs to do better and communicate about key initiatives and projects.
Companies that do so can position themselves as leaders on future themes. There are certainly lots of topics to discuss, from net-zero construction to biosourced and low-carbon materials, development of green spaces, rethinking usages, “third places” and more. The real estate sector also has a pivotal role to play in social ties and diversity, by adapting housing to meet the needs of reduced-mobility and/or elderly people.
3. HIGHLIGHT THE COLLECTIVE
From agencies and promoters to builders, craftspeople and architects, stakeholders in the real estate sector span a broad spectrum. Hence the need to stress the collective aspect, if you want to bring these different audiences together and build a common stance. The sector needs to put a human face on its communications. Spotlighting your own people is a significant way to build trust and credibility. From video reports to articles, testimonials and employee advocacy, there are lots of formats and tools to showcase the human expertise behind companies in the sector.
