It’s no secret—social media has changed everything, and real estate is no exception. The way we shop, share, and connect has shifted dramatically, and in 2025, buying or selling a home is no longer limited to open houses and MLS listings.
Whether you’re in Durham Region, Northumberland County, or the East GTA, social media is playing a major role in how homes are discovered, marketed, and sold—and the results are powerful.
Let’s break it down.
1. Home Shopping Now Starts on Social
Years ago, the first step in the home buying journey might have been a call to your local agent. Now? It often starts with a scroll.
Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube have become virtual showrooms. Buyers are touring homes in real time, seeing walk-throughs, and even engaging with agents—before they’ve even booked a showing.
At Team Prata, we use video, reels, stories, and social-first content to showcase homes in a way that feels personal and immediate. It’s not just about selling houses—it’s about creating a connection between buyers and their future home.
2. Sellers Are Reaching More Buyers Than Ever
Traditional marketing still has its place—but in 2025, the homes that sell fastest (and often for the most) are the ones that stand out online.
With geo-targeted ads, boosted posts, and carefully crafted storytelling, we can now put your home in front of thousands of local buyers, many of whom weren’t even actively looking… until they saw your listing pop up in their feed.
This kind of reach simply wasn’t possible a few years ago.
3. It’s Not Just About Listings—It’s About Trust
People don’t just want information—they want real people they can relate to. That’s why the agents who show up authentically online are the ones building the strongest relationships and getting the best results.
At Team Prata, we don’t just post listings. We share market tips, behind-the-scenes moments, community highlights, and real stories from real clients. We’re proud to be recognized faces in Brooklin, Whitby, Cobourg, Oshawa, and beyond, not just as realtors—but as trusted guides and neighbours.
4. Timing and Trends Matter
Social media moves fast. Homes can go viral with the right post at the right time. That's why we stay on top of trends, optimize posting times, and constantly test new strategies to make sure your home stands out in a competitive market.
From listing teasers to launch-day campaigns, every part of our social strategy is designed to get results—not just likes.
