Real Estate Signage Checklist
Planning and Design
Determine the size of the sign based on local zoning laws and the location of the property.
Choose a design that reflects the company's brand and is easily readable from a distance.
Ensure all necessary information is included, such as the company logo, agent contact information, and any required regulatory text.
Materials and Durability
Select materials that are durable and can withstand local weather conditions.
Consider using UV-resistant inks to prevent fading and maintain legibility over time.
Make sure the sign's structure is sturdy and secure to prevent damage or loss.
Compliance and Legal Requirements
Check with local government agencies for any permits required to place the sign.
Review and adhere to any homeowner association (HOA) rules or community guidelines regarding signage.
Ensure that the sign placement complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and does not obstruct public right-of-way.
Installation and Maintenance
Choose the most visible location for the sign that is legally permissible and strategically beneficial.
Install the sign securely to prevent it from falling over or being easily removed.
Regularly inspect the sign for any damage, wear, or vandalism and perform necessary maintenance.
Marketing and Information
Update the sign promptly with 'sold' or 'under contract' riders to keep the information current.
Use QR codes or URLs to direct potential buyers to additional information online.
Include a call to action to encourage interested parties to contact the real estate agent.
Removal and Storage
Remove the sign promptly after the sale is complete or the contract ends.
Clean the sign and check for any damages or repairs needed before storage.
Store the sign in a dry, secure place to prevent damage and ensure it is ready for future use.
