Introducing Property PR: What It Is and Why You Need It
Property PR can be used to promote property schemes in a number of ways, from generating interest in a new development, communicating projects and ESG, to improving the perceived image of a particular location.
It can be an extremely effective way of building trust in your supply chain, engaging with funders, and reaching out to potential investors can help to create a buzz around a particular property or development.
Property PR can help differentiate your business in a busy marketplace or supply chain. It can support and bring to life your CSR, social value objectives or ESG strategies. Property PR can also help you celebrate the achievements of employees and business goals, and our award writing and management service is an effective way to reflect and share your success within your industry and to potential clients.
Working with a property PR agency can be beneficial in many cases, especially when trying to educate, build trust and reach a wider audience.

Top Tips for Getting Started With a Property PR Agency
Whenever we take on a new project, we like to ask four key questions:
What are your objectives? (not just for PR but for your business or organisation).
Who are you trying to influence and why should they care?
What do you want your audience to feel or do?
What are you doing differently from your competitors? (And look carefully at your existing content)
We’re sharing this information to give you some food for thought and give you a head start on what you can prepare before beginning your property PR campaigns.
-
It's important to define your goals and objectives for property PR before you start working on any campaigns. Make sure you understand what you hope to achieve, whether it's increasing traffic to your website or generating interest from media coverage, evidencing social value for tenders, influencing your supply chain, engaging potential staff, entering and winning awards or industry and peer recognition.
Research the property PR landscape – who are the key players among your competitors, what do they do well, and how can you differentiate yourself?
When starting out in property PR, it's important to have a broad understanding of who is doing what and how you can stand out from the crowd. To get started, research who the top players in the industry are by reading articles and following them on social media. Once you have a good understanding of who is working in this space, it will be easier to figure out which channels work best for you and which strategies will help you reach your target audience. We will help you figure out what to say, to whom and how to reach them.
-
It’s vital to know who you are seeking to influence from the outset. What are you saying and to whom? If one of your intended audiences is the media, it's essential that you have a strong pitch ready when meeting or contacting them.
When pitching Property PR stories, make sure to highlight why the story is relevant (for example, local community impact or unique selling points), describe how your content will be different from other similar pieces being published, and provide evidence that supports your claims (e.g. screenshots or stats). Journalists love original data.
-
Whether you are reaching your audience through media relations, social media, blog posts, photos, or videos, make sure your content is high quality and catches people’s attention.
Although creating great content is critical, it’s important that you keep your audience in mind. Be clear about what you want your audience to do or feel. Do you want them to be excited or enthused? Do you want them to be concerned? Do you want to motivate them to get in touch or do you want to highlight sector issues and align your corporate values? Your property PR efforts need to stand out and be memorable for the right reasons.
Make use of catchy headlines, beautiful images/videos/infographics, interesting facts, etc., to capture people’s attention online. Once they’ve taken notice of your content, make sure to keep up the good work by promoting it through social media.
Content can be recycled and used in many different ways, so make sure you’re using what you produce. Be consistent and always think about your intended audience.
Trust us to confidently manage your property PR, collaborating with you to produce content that generates the right reaction, getting you in front of the right audience.
