There are many ways that you can reach prospective tenants and get your property off the market quicker. Social media is one of those amazing tools! Social media channels such as Instagram, Twitter and even TikTok are now being utilized by real estate professionals all over the world.
As a landlord, social media is a great way to stand out locally against your competitors. Here are some ways you can use social media as a landlord.
Showcase Your Properties (TikTok)
TikTok has taken the world by storm and is a great app to reach the young generation. However, despite that many people use the platform for various content such as comedy, recruitment tips, beauty reviews and dance choreography.
A great way to showcase your property that’s on the market is to create TikTok to show it off! Give a tour of the empty property (make sure it’s presentable) and post to see if you get any interest!
Ask a Landlord Lives (Instagram Lives)
There are many first-time renters out there, many of whom have questions! A good idea would be to host an Instagram Live where you can answer questions about the rental process and even the properties you have on offer.
It’s a great way to engage with your social media followers and community and to build trust.
Get Active on Rental Forums & Community Groups (Facebook)
Joining active forums and community groups is a great way to get known locally, especially as a landlord.
Not only could you gain tenants from being active in these groups, but you can also encourage new business opportunities too.
Rave About Your Customer Service (Instagram Posts)
Everyone loves testimonials and a great review, so why not share that with others? Has your tenant ever praised your fast action in terms of maintenance? So, why not ask them if they would like to write testimonials for you that you can share online!
Not only does it give you more credibility, but it also is a great way to show that you care about your tenants.
