Why is branding important for real estate developers?

Press. Signage. Tours. Digital ads. Social media. Marketing is essential for driving sales and leasing—and growing your real estate development business. But all those marketing efforts are far less effective if they’re not supported with a clear voice and visual identity. That’s where branding comes in.

A strong property brand can increase the visibility of new developments, enhance your reputation in the marketplace and increase awareness among your target audiences. So you can more easily find the buyers, renters and investors you need.

So how do you create a strong multi-family property brand?

Like any project, good property development marketing starts by laying the foundation.

  1. Our Brand Builder™ workshop digs deep into your goals, challenges and competition. It’s a fun, collaborative process that sets up the marketing strategy and identifies your target audience. What we learn together informs everything that follows—from naming, messaging and logo design to marketing collateral, website content and social media marketing.

  2. Before you lease up, you need to stand out. Our talented creative team knows how to turn your new marketing strategy into beautiful brand design. Your message and visual identity will speak to your target audience clearly and confidently across all your marketing efforts. Signage. Marketing collateral. Website content. Digital marketing and more.  

    Best of all, we’ll develop a brand style guide to ensure your real estate development business has everything it needs down the road. So your company's brand stays consistent and your company's reputation stays intact.

  3. Every new real estate development project brings different challenges—and a few of the same. Like the need to satisfy investors and dazzle renters. Your development team wants to see positive pre-leasing numbers. But how do you showcase success when you’ve barely broken ground?

Over the years, we’ve refined what works to create tailored, digital marketing strategies that drive traffic and revenue.
