One of the means we could use to inform people about rental properties is by using flyers. The importance of letting the neighbourhood know that your office has taken on the management of a property is massive – especially if the property was being under-managed. Neighbours will approach you and let you know of previous issues that there have been with the property. This also opens up the opportunity if they know any other people who could be disappointed with their current agent. Let’s not forget to be asking for new business at the same time. It’s about creating every chance we can to ask for new business, they too may have an investment, and they are now seeing you be proactive. We have come up with some just listed and just leased flyer templates that you can use when announcing the properties.
