A memorable brand is one that stands out in a crowded marketplace and has high visibility. It’s also one that provides benefits and value to its customers and creates a sense of community among its members. Remembering it is key; taking care of it is another thing entirely. The difficulty is that real estate isn’t the easiest category to remember. It’s so much more than housing and buying and selling homes: it’s also about neighborhoods, communities, cities and towns. The names change, the faces change, but the real estate market is very much a local marketplace.

That’s why a memorable brand requires constant work and attention for those who want it to outlast its competition. Here are three steps to get you started when creating a memorable brand in real estate:
- Pick a name that’s easy to remember.
- While it’s true that the best names are often taken, you can stand out from the crowd by choosing a name that’s simple and easy to remember. It should be short, catchy and memorable so your prospects will recall it easily.
- Create your own lexicon for social media interactions.
- If you’re on Facebook, Twitter and other social media platforms, you shouldn’t use the same keyword phrases or hashtags as your competitors. Each brand should have its own unique lexicon in order to create a distinction that will be easily recalled by consumers. You might also consider using an abbreviation to stand out.
- Don’t be afraid to change your name.
- Your real estate brand could use an overhaul from time to time if it starts to feel outdated or loses its luster with consumers.
