How to Set Up a Facebook Ad: Open House

An open house can generate massive amounts of interest in your listing, which is

crucial to appeasing your sellers’ need for you to market their home to potential

buyers. As we all know, however, it is unlikely that the person who ends up

buying the home attends the open house. Instead, the real benefit for you as an

agent is that you can drum up home buyer leads. Take this tried-and-true

strategy online to impress your sellers, intrigue your potential buyer clients, and

increase your overall presence in your market area.
