Let’s face it—between open houses, showings, and contracts, finding time (and creativity) for social media isn’t always easy. But the truth is, a consistent and engaging online presence can make a big difference in attracting buyers, sellers, and referrals.
The good news? You don’t have to be a content creator to succeed online. With a few simple, repeatable ideas, you can keep your feed active and your audience engaged—all without reinventing the wheel.
At License EDU, we help real estate professionals stay compliant and grow their businesses. If you’re looking for easy social media wins, try these post ideas designed specifically for real estate agents.
1. Showcase Your Listings & Closings
These are the bread and butter of real estate content—and clients expect to see them.
Post Ideas:
- “Just Listed” with a carousel of photos and standout features
- “Just Sold!” with a short story about the sale or how you helped the client
- A reel or short video walking through a home or sharing a virtual tour
Tip: Add a short testimonial if the client is willing—this builds trust fast.
- Share Local Highlights
Your audience doesn’t just want an agent—they want a local expert. Show them you know your market inside and out.
Post Ideas:
- Your favorite coffee shops, restaurants, or parks in the area
- Upcoming events or festivals happening locally
- “Neighborhood Spotlight” featuring a specific area you serve
This type of content appeals to buyers relocating to your city—and helps boost your visibility with local hashtags.
3. Educate Your Audience
Not everyone understands how real estate works. Use your platform to educate buyers and sellers in a way that’s simple, clear, and helpful.
Post Ideas:
- “What’s Included in a Home Inspection?”
- “3 Things Every First-Time Buyer Should Know”
- “How to Price Your Home to Sell in Today’s Market”
Educational content positions you as a trusted expert and makes people more likely to reach out when they’re ready to act.
4. Go Behind the Scenes
People love seeing the human side of business. Show them what it’s really like to be an agent—and let your personality shine.
Post Ideas:
- “A day in the life” stories or photos
- Video clips from staging or inspection day
- A funny moment from a showing (without breaking client confidentiality, of course!)
Behind-the-scenes posts build relatability and make your brand more memorable.

5. Ask Questions & Encourage Engagement
Social media is meant to be social. Get your followers involved by asking questions, running polls, or encouraging comments.
Post Ideas:
- “Would you rather: Modern kitchen or huge backyard?”
- “What’s the #1 thing you look for in a home?”
- “Have you ever thought about buying an investment property?”
The more people engage with your posts, the more likely you are to show up in their feeds consistently.
