Creekview Realty Yard Sign
All our signs have a phone number local to your area (see samples at the bottom of this page), or a toll-free number. We ship the sign insert only by UPS, which is corrugated plastic, standard 24x18 size.
MLS rules prohibit a seller's phone number on MLS members' real estate company signs. When a buyer calls us, we refer them to the seller and do not attempt to show the house to make a commission. We briefly explain to buyers what we do so they don't get confused, since we do the opposite of what other Realtors do. We don't mind taking the calls because we sometimes get buyers who list their homes with us after they understand how we work.
Sign Frames
We provide you with a sturdy frame like the one you see in the photo. It is an "L angle" frame like what you would buy at Lowe's or Home Depot. We pre-drill holes in the side to allow for mounting of a flyer box, as shown in the photo, and supply the proper screws. (Due to cost, most of our competitors supply unprofessional looking flimsy wire frames.)
Flyer Boxes
The best flyer boxes are a little taller and wider than an 8 1/2 by 11 1/2 inch flyer, and have a lid at the top (see Photo). The plexi-glass front allows prospects (and nosey neighbors) to easily see when the box has flyers in it. There is a hole at the top and one at the bottom for attaching to a sign frame with screws.
Info Tubes
An alternative to the flyer box is an "Info Tube", which is shown in 2 of the photos of For-Sale-By-Owner signs. They are a little awkward to use, and at times someone may tug on a flyer and the whole batch ends up all over your lawn. However, they are cheap and always available at Home Depot and Lowe's. The budget-minded can always improvise a way to attach Info Tubes to any cheap wire frame with wire, string, or a coat hanger. We don't supply info Tubes and we don't recommend them.
