42 blog post ideas for estate agents5 Aug 2020

No-one ever tells you that the worst thing about becoming an adult is having to put up with the monotony of coming up with what to have for dinner every single night until the end of time. They definitely don’t tell you that the second-worst, is coming up with regular blog post ideas for your estate agency when it’s rarely a priority.

Falling into a rut and feeling deeply uninspired but half-arsing a 150 word post about the local market because you feel like you should be doing something does not make for engaging content.

Never fear though, your fairy blogmother is here to help! For once I’m going to shut up, and simply give you a long bullet-pointed list of blog post ideas you can steal and make your own.
