Real Estate Brochure Printing

September 13, 2008 by

The importance of quality brochures for real estate agents and those trying to advertise their properties is sometimes overlooked. Just like a resume, the quality of paper you use reflects on your professionalism. How many times have you seen a cheap piece of paper presenting a house or apartment building for sale? Most of the time I see these fliers they are people trying to sell the home without a real estate agent. In my opinion, it’s worth going the extra mile to spend a few bucks more to pay for quality brochures and or paper.

The second part of printing brochures has to do with convience. I like being able to handle any brochure printing needs with ease and one such solution is to use an online printing company. After doing some searching online, I ended up finding such a service called www.psprint.com. I have yet to use their offerings but when the time comes, I’m sure to give them a try.

Has anyone else tried an online printing service before? If so, what were your experiences? I’d like to think most online businesses are legit but without a positive review from a nuetral person, it’s hard to trust a site.

Online Printing Service availability has increased, offering cheap printing of brochures, material for real estate brokers or Realtor at competitive prices. Costs are low, and speed faster. Unfortunately, cheap printing prices can only be found at few online companies. Please visit http://www.printoutlet.us compare the prices and don’t forget to see testimonials.

The volume of brochures that our company puts out has gotten so great that we invested in a high quality printer and produce them in-house. Brochure almost never got printed on an offset printer anymore.

We still outsource postcard printing to a mail house that actually mails them for us. There are tons of firms that will do this.

I recently sold my own condo, and went online and ordered the glossy sales brochures–it was very easy and they arrived in days. So much easier than having to go to a printshop.

Three years ago I sold my first home without any Net resources. But it was very difficult for me. I heard that some services can publish ads about my home in the Internet. Can you help me to choose between Fizber and Trulia? Do you know anything about these services? My friend said that “Fizber” better than “Trulia”. But maybe he wasn’t right. So I need help.

The quality of brochures is definitely needed to help us sell a house.. if the brochures are lacking of design and uses low-quality papers.. maybe clients would think the real estate is not so good…

In my past life, I ran a family printing business for 20 years, so I KNOW printing. In my new career as a Realtor, I can tell you that my ad spend is almost 100% online as direct mail and other forms of print advertising are, unfortunately for my old industry, less effective and cost-efficient.

Printing quality along with quantity are the top two most important factors of printing at first. Creating an amazing brochure for your company can have a huge impact on the marketing area, underestimating this can be the downfall to any companies promotional status.

Its true. Most people used a cheap paper, after you have distributed the fliers its easy for the customer to throw it away, unlike if you spend a bucks for good printing normally people keep it.

Good quality printing and paper is great, but you also need great photos. Making a flyer with so-so pictures is just as bad as using cheap paper or poor formating.

We print all ours in house. Local Kinkos type solutions are $0.40 per page, so we can beat that easily in house.

I’m sure a online soultion can beat our inhouse soultion, however, you lose flexability.

We put about 30 flyers in the box at a time and refill on demand..

Brochures has to be attractable. In its paper quality and photos of the interior facilities will attract prospect buyers. I agree that brochure is like a resume that reflects the personalism.

But it may cost too much to produce such kind of brochures.

Flyers and leaflets are dead! who uses them today anyway. We should focus more on the other types of adcvertising and sales promotion rather than wasting money on flyers that people throw after the distributor gives it to them. I suggest everyone to use our technology today. but salesmanship is still effective and will always be even old fashioned. Brochures like that should be posted online or through the use of social networking sites. Put your money in good use..dont throw it to waste!!not by anyone throwing it!

You can also use USPS.com and upload your brochures and they will print and mail all together at very good price – just make sure to include your own address on list so you see the finished product.

There are multiple different companies that make brochures and many other advertising schemes. But like stated in the about article make sure your brochures are that of a professional matter and are on the expensive paper. This not only gives your business the image of being professional and efficient but it also gives your clients more confidence in you and what you have to offer.

I’ve stopped relying on actual brochures and instead simply invested a bit more into a unique business card design. You have to have cards to give to prospective home buyers (and sellers), so why not go beyond the ordinary and spend a few extra bucks to create a card that also works like a brochure.

Thanks for the post!

Yeah, skimping out in the brochure production will not help. Brochures are proven effective marketing material in the real estate business and one should make sure that they have the best and quality brochures to give to potential clients. If the material is not good enough, they might think that homes they are selling are also not good enough.

The way a home is presented both in terms of home staging and in terms of the marketing materials displaying the photos and information is paramount to achieving a good sale price. Personally I think that people shouldn’t try and cut costs here and should choose an agent who is willing to put money into the printing of these materials – thicker stock with matt lamination.
