37 Post Ideas for Your Mortgage Social Media Accounts—With Examples

social media marketing

One of the key elements of using social media effectively is consistently posting to your company profiles. This is where most mortgage professionals fail because they simply don’t have the time or creativity to come up with new posts. So, to help you, we’ve come up with 37 mortgage social media post ideas, with real-world examples, that you can use as inspiration for your own social media posts.

 

1. New Employee

Highlighting new employees is a great way to show the world your company is made up of real people. It also helps welcome the new recruits and gives them a little face time.

2. New Company Location

If you have recently moved, or have opened up a new office in a new city, let everyone know about it. You’ll get the word out about your new market area and highlight the fact that your company is growing.

3. Client Testimonial

The best posts are the posts where someone else is tooting your horn. Testimonials from real clients strengthen your brand, build trust with potential clients, and otherwise feel good!

4. Client Closing

This is probably my favorite type of post: the client closing photo. Even if you can’t be at the closing, ask your escrow officer or Realtor partner to snap the photo. There’s no happier client than one who just closed on their home!

5. Internal Company News

Let everyone know what’s going on at your company. Give them sneak peeks into what it’s like working for your company.

6. New Loan Product

Talking about a new loan product can be exciting. It can be a great way to pique the interest of a follower who has yet to become a client.

7. Mortgage Glossary Term

We often get so caught up in the teeny, tiny details of mortgage loans, that we forget most people don’t know the most basic of terms and principles. Be a guiding light by explaining the terms found in any mortgage glossary.

8. Employee Spotlight

Similar to a New Employee Post, the Employee Spotlight does just that: highlights a current employee. These posts are great for introducing employees who work in ops and explaining what they do.

9. Inspirational Quote

Not everything has to be mortgage, mortgage, mortgage. People love being inspired and encouraged. We find inspirational posts are often shared, too.

10. Client Party

A client party is an exciting and fun event. Why wouldn’t you showcase such an event on social media?! It not only gives your past clients a little face time on your profile, it also shows potential clients that you really do care.

11. Company Charity Event

It’s so important to give back to charity. Companies of all shapes and sizes should give back to their community when they can. Company Charity Event posts are an excellent way to showcase the good your company does.

14. Company in the News

If you’re a company who’s in the news a lot, you may want to cherry-pick the best topics, but posting about your company in the news helps with brand notariety and trust.

15. Market Statistics

People like stats. Nerds LOVE stats. So give people and nerds a little love and share some market statistics with them. (Not to say that nerds aren’t people. We are.)

16. This or That?

It’s important to keep your audience engaged with your profile. After all, engagement is what drives increased likes, comments, and shares, as more people see your posts. Asking your audience a polarizing question about two different styles is a great way to get them to engage with your content.

17. Free Giveaway

People love free stuff. They love it. I mean, duh. Give away free stuff to your social media fans and followers. Make sure you’re following each site’s rules for contests and promotions, though! You don’t want to get banned!

18. Business Owner Spotlight

Business partners can be the lifeblood of any business. They can not only be an immense source of referrals, they often are your biggest supporters. Be supportive of local business owners in your database or local market area by showcasing them on social media. They’ll likely remember this little gesture for years to come.

19. Personal Accomplishment

Your great employees are doing amazing things every day in their personal lives. Nothing humanizes a brand more than real people in your company doing real things. Adding personal accomplishment posts to your social media plan also shows your employees you care about them beyond work.

20. Blog Post

It’s important to cross-promote any and all online marketing efforts as much as possible. It almost goes without saying—but we’ll say it anyway—that you should always share your company’s blog posts on all social media accounts. We could talk forever about mortgage blog content tips and tricks, so we’ll just give you a few right here and follow up with a post in the near future!

21. Holiday Message

25. Question Post

We’ve mentioned engagement posts before, and a perfect example of such is the simple question post. You just ask a simple question. (One good enough to warrant a response of course.)

26. Fun Fact

The Fun Fact post is a good post to try and get your audience to like and share. There has been a great thirst for knowledge on the web, especially recently, and the Fun Fact post gives you an opportunity to tap into that thirst while also spreading a little knowledge around.

27. Company Event

We said it earlier and we’ll say it again: happy employees make happy borrowers. Show your past and potential clients that your employees enjoy where they work. Anything that gets employees involved on social media will help ensure your content gets spread as far as possible.

28. National Day

The National Day is not quite a holiday, but is a day celebrated by lovers of all types of things: donuts, pizza, dogs, secretaries. Find the things important to your fans and followers and share in their love of the every day.

Other Mortgage Social Media Post Ideas

I couldn’t find active examples for the rest of my post ideas. That being said, I think all of these ideas would be a slam dunk for your mortgage social media efforts. And, since they seem to be elusive, you’d even look like a pioneer in your field!

32. Work Anniversary

Celebrate your employees’ time with your company by congratulating them on their work anniversary.

33. First Client Meeting

Snatch a photo of you with your clients at your first meeting together. Engaging your clients in your social media from the beginning of the transaction will help them stay involved once the transaction is over.

34. Client Savings Spotlight

If you helped a client save money on their refinance or saved them a bunch over a competitor on a quote, wouldn’t you want to shout that out to the world? Make sure you include specific numbers and examples of the savings.

35. Local Real Estate News

For local real estate news, it’s not that we couldn’t find any examples, we just couldn’t find many good ones. Sharing local real estate news is great; make sure you’re lending a fresh perspective on it, not just syndicating something that’s already been shared.

36. Most Expensive Market Listing

Everyone loves to see “how the other half lives”. Give your fans and followers a sneak peek into your local market’s most expensive listings. Partner with a Realtor to present the information. Who knows, you may have a jumbo loan in your near future.

37. Referral Partner Spotlight

There are few things that show your referral partners  you care like helping them grow their business. Share a personal experience you’ve had with your referral partner to strengthen the recommendation.
