How Social Media Can Sell Your Property in Birmingham

September 2025

Selling your home today takes more than a listing on property portals. At Oakmans Estate Agents, we use the power of social media to put your property in front of thousands of serious buyers in Birmingham, Harborne, Selly Oak, Shirley and Northfield. With over 75,000 combined followers on TikTok and Instagram, our marketing strategy is designed to get results fast.

 

Why Social Media Marketing Works

Traditional listings are still important, but social media adds what sellers really need - speed, reach and engagement. Our TikTok and Instagram videos typically reach over 10,000 views within the first 24 hours, creating instant buzz and driving enquiries straight away.

This exposure means your home isn’t just listed, it’s actively promoted to an audience that’s already interested in property across Birmingham.

 

Unique and Engaging Content Creation

Numbers matter, but the way your property is presented makes all the difference. We specialise in creating short-form, engaging content designed specifically for TikTok and Instagram. Our videos are edited to work seamlessly with each platform’s algorithm, helping them reach thousands of active buyers and stopping the scroll on busy feeds.

Alongside our social media strategy, we also offer a full property marketing package, including:

  • Professional photography to show off your home in its best light

  • Drone footage to highlight gardens, views and local surroundings

  • Virtual tours so buyers can explore anytime, anywhere

  • Detailed floorplans to give buyers a clear understanding of the layout

This mix of quick, engaging social content and professional marketing ensures your home gets both instant exposure online and the polished presentation it deserves when buyers look deeper.

 

Instant Enquiries Through Smart Links

To make the most of this exposure, we use a unique auto-message system. When someone engages with your property in the comments, they instantly receive a link to the full listing on our website and an option to book a viewing.

This seamless process turns curiosity into enquiries while interest is at its peak, helping you get more viewings and stronger offers faster.

 

Reaching Active Buyers on Stories and Highlights

Not every buyer spends hours scrolling the feed. That’s why we use Instagram Stories and Highlights to make sure your property reaches people who are actively searching.

Stories offer quick, engaging updates that motivated buyers check daily, while Highlights keep your property visible for longer. Together, they ensure your home stays front and centre with serious buyers.

 

Professional Marketing Backed by Local Knowledge

Every property benefits from our creative content and digital reach, but we also bring strong local expertise. Whether you’re selling a student investment in Selly Oak, a family home in Harborne or a modern apartment in Shirley, we know how to target the right buyers in Birmingham and surrounding areas.
