What are Real Estate Posts?

Real estate posts are one of the most common real estate signs used by realtors. They are primarily used by real estate agents and companies to advertise homes or other properties. They are one of the larger real estate signs, which is great for attracting attention and providing lots of information.

Our real estate posts are made of a durable PVC and come with a double-sided aluminum sign, making them perfect for outdoors. They can also be bought with just the hardware (no sign). Riders are sold separately. Purchase your riders here.

Product Specs

What is a Real Estate Post?

Our Real Estate Post is a simple, shovel-free solution to professionally display your custom real-estate signage. The white 4x4 PVC post easily slides over the included ground stake and can accommodate standard real-estate signage.

What size(s) does the Post come in?

We offer two sizes: Small and Large, both measuring 6 ft. tall. The Small Post includes a 24" x 18" sign (it can accommodate signs up to 24" wide), while the Large Post includes a 36" x 24" sign (and can accommodate signs up to 36" wide).

Is a sign included with the post?

Yes, a sign is included in the cost of the post. As noted earlier, a 24" x 18" aluminum sign comes with the small post, and a 36" x 24" aluminum sign comes with the large post.

What material is the Post made of?

Our Real Estate Post is made of durable PVC plastic, which is lightweight, waterproof, and UV-safe. Because of these attributes, the Post is ideal for quickly installed, year-round outdoor advertising and messaging.

What material is the sign made of?

The Real Estate Signs comprise a polyethylene foam core with corrosion-resistant aluminum faces on each side. The signs are 1/2" thick and lightweight but durable. Graphics are printed using UV inks. They can be printed single-sided or double-sided.

How heavy is your Real Estate Post?

The Small Post weighs in at just 19.7 pounds, while the Large Post weighs just 20.6 pounds – so both sizes can be easily lifted for installation/take down, and for transport from site to site. Depending upon the size sign you combine with the post, this will add anywhere from approximately 2 pounds to 7 pounds to the total weight.

How long and how heavy is the stake?

The stake itself measures 35" and weighs 8 pounds.

What size signs does the Post accommodate?

As noted above, our Small Post can accommodate signs up to 24" wide, while our Large Post can accommodate signs up to 36" wide. Keep in mind that the Small Post includes a 24" x 18" sign, and the Large Post includes a 36" x 24' sign.

How heavy a sign will your Real Estate Post hold? What’s the total weight limit for multiple signs?

Because the arm of the Post goes all the way through the vertical Post, it will hold a considerable amount of weight (there’s no specified weight limit for the Post). That said, we would not recommend hanging anything on the Post other than our standard mix of real-estate signage options – primary signs and riders.

Can I hang multiple signs on the Post?

A typical configuration is a primary sign and a rider sign positioned above and/or below the primary graphic. However, you could hang multiple larger signs on the Real Estate Post – by having holes drilled in both the top and bottom of your "primary" sign, and then hanging a "secondary" sign from the bottom of the primary sign.

Is your Real Estate Post available in another color besides white? If not, can it be painted?

At this time, our Real Estate Post is only available in white. To paint PVC plastic, you must use a paint that is intended for PVC and plastic, such as Krylon Fusion All-in-One and Rust-O-Leum Paint for Plastic (available at most hardware stores). Using other types of paint will likely result in the paint flaking and peeling.

Is it possible to add a decal or other graphic to the Real Estate Post?

Any adhesive that will stick to PVC will stick to the post hardware. A decal running down the vertical Post could serve to reinforce your primary message, but keep in mind that you won't have a lot of space to work with for your message since the post is only 4' wide.

Is shipping free when ordering a Real Estate Post?

Ground shipping is free when ordering our Real Estate Post. If you need your real estate post sooner, you can upgrade your shipping for a small fee.

Do you offer discounts on orders of multiple Real Estate Posts?

Yes! It's easy to see what kind of quantity discounts are available for Real Estate Posts: Scroll over "Buy More, Save More" located beneath the Quantity box to see a few common quantity discounts. You can also enter a specific number into the Quantity box to receive an immediate discounted quantity price.

I have my own signage – can I order just the post?

Yes, definitely! Just click on the "Add to Cart" button that's located under the Small or Large Real Estate Post products in the Hardware Only section above.

But you also sell signage that will work with the post, yes?

Yes, we sell signs that will work great with your Real Estate Post. Our Real Estate Signs are made of corrosion-resistant aluminum that can be printed single-sided or double-sided; they're available in sizes ranging from 24" x 18" to 36" x 48." You can buy replacement graphics for real estate posts by visiting the Graphics Only section on the page above. You can use just about any sign type with the post as long as it meets the following criteria: Small post: No more than 24" wide, has drilled holes 16" apart and no more than 1" from the top of the sign; Large post: No more than 36" wide, has drilled holes 24" apart and no more than 1" from the top of the sign.

Is the sign double-sided?

The signs that come with our Real Estate Posts can be printed double-sided, and each side can carry separate messages and/or graphics.

How do I attach the sign to the post?

The signs that come with our Real Estate Posts have pre-drilled holes, so all you will need to do to attach the sign to the post is to attach one end of the provided hanging clips to the post and loop the other end through the corresponding drilled hole on the sign.

Can I attach a rider to the post? Do you offer riders?

We do offer riders – you can have them made from aluminum, corrugated plastic, and rigid plastic. Sign riders must be rectangular in shape and measure 24" x 6" with a thickness less than ½-inch. Our riders are easily attached to the post by simply pulling away the tension clip on the back of the real estate frame – this allows the rider to slide into place; once the rider is inserted, release the tension clip to secure it in place.

So, I can buy the sign without the post? And I can buy the post without the sign?

Yes, we sell both our Real Estate Post and our signs separately if you only need either component but not both. To order just a post, simply click on the correct size post you require in the "Hardware Only" section above, to add the post to your cart. To order only signage, click on the "Get Started" button under "Aluminum Sign," above; or if you only need riders, click on "Get Started" under "Riders." You have the ability to choose whether or not you want the post when you're configuring the Real Estate Post product in the design tool.

How long will it take for my post to be delivered?

We offer Overnight, 2 Day, and Ground shipping options. You can view the delivery window for your order when selecting your shipping type on the checkout page, on the checkout confirmation page, and in the order confirmation email that's sent to you upon checkout. Turnaround time on our Real Estate Posts is 1 business day.

Usage

What are the common uses for a Real Estate Post?

The most common use is for real estate sales, rentals, promotions and messaging: commercial, single-family properties, condominiums, acreage, and other properties.

What's the best spot on a property to install a Real Estate Post?

Typically the best location is at the primary driveway entrance – this way, your prospective customers will immediately see your property offering at the front of the residence or other structure. If the property sits on a corner lot or has two entrances, you could consider adding an additional Post (at the very least, consider adding a Real Estate Frame or other signage).

Is it common practice to use more than one Real Estate Post for a single property?

Generally, you'll need only a single Real Estate Post per property. However, if the property is very large, has multiple entrances, or sits on a corner lot, then more than one Post would help ensure that passersby see your messaging.

What's the lifespan of the Real Estate Post?

Since it's made of PVC (think PVC fencing or rain gutters, for instance), the Post is very durable and will hold up well for years in most normal weather conditions (see below). After years of 24/7 display subjected to the most extreme heat and sun, the Post could eventually become brittle.

Is it weatherproof? Will it stand up to severe winter weather?

Made of durable PVC, our Real Estate Post is waterproof and resistant to UV rays. If installed correctly, it should withstand most weather conditions.

Is hardware included? What about other accessories?

Yes, hardware is included with the Real Estate Post – the post itself, of course, plus the aforementioned ground stake, hanging clips, rider clips, and screws.

Installation & Care

How do I install my Real Estate Post? Do I need a hammer, shovel, or other tools to install? If so, do you also sell these tools?

It’s easy to install our Real Estate Post: Simply hammer the stake into the ground and then assemble the post and place it over the stake – you’re all set! There’s no need to shovel at all; yes, you will need a hammer for the stake (no, we don’t sell hammers, sorry!). All that’s then left to do is attach the sign and rider(s).

Can I install the Post on a concrete or blacktopped surface?

Our Real Estate Post can only be installed into the ground/soil, and the 36" stake must be able to be sunk into the ground to ensure the post will remain upright. It cannot be installed into concrete or blacktopped surfaces.

Will I need a helper to assist me in installing it?

It's doubtful that you'll need an assistant for the installation of our Real Estate Post. The Post itself is easily transported and installed due to its light weight. So unless you need help in hammering the stake into the ground, one person should be all that's necessary.

There’s already a ground stake in the property – can I simply use this existing stake?

Our Real Estate Post comes with a stake and other hardware at no additional charge, and the stake has been designed for the post; so, we would suggest using our stake. If, however, you opt to use an existing stake (or any other stake), it must be able to match the inside width of our post to fit snugly – approximately 3.625" x 3.625."

What's the best way to store my Real Estate Post?

Ideally, store it in its shipping container if you still have that. You can also wrap it in a soft cloth and store in a covered environment (we suggest storing it flat, not standing up, to avoid it being knocked over/falling).

How should I clean the Real Estate Post?

Simply wiping down the post with a soft, damp cloth should remove any dirt or grime; you can also hose it down if need be – the PVC plastic is waterproof and will not be damaged.
