Take the walkthrough ↓
First stop · Your community publication

First, the main attraction.

Your own monthly community publication — local stories, familiar places, events, history, a quiz and a word search. And, of course, one of your featured properties.

Every month we prepare up to four print-ready PDFs, each featuring a different property you choose, with a QR code linking directly to the listing.

Black and white or full colour. Print a few copies or a few hundred; place them in 5 or 55 locations. You decide where to share them. We DO the preparation.

A little further into the walkthrough

And look what else we DO FOR YOU.

The same monthly publication lets us take care of much more for you.

The publication

Your community, in print.

We DO the research, writing, design and changes. Your monthly publication is ready to print in black and white or colour, with up to four property versions.

Google Business Profile

We keep it updated.

We prepare and publish up to 8 suitable posts and create a Google Post for each listing you have selected for the month. We also provide up to 4 photo uploads and 2 events or announcements each month. Including open houses.

Facebook Business Page

We DO the posting.

We create and post the local history, interesting facts, quizzes, word searches and local events from your Close to Home publication. We also post your selected property listings and announce open houses. You won’t need to remember to create or post them.

Email delivery

Right to their inbox.

Every Close to Home publication invites readers to subscribe to receive each month’s Close to Home issue by scanning a QR code. We offer that same opportunity on Facebook. We deliver your full-colour edition by email each month. The subscriber list belongs to you, and you can download it as a CSV at any time.

Draft for review. Automated Google and Facebook publishing, email delivery and payments are planned features, subject to setup and testing.

The final room

Making Close to Home yours.

Only one local real estate agent in each community gets to call Close to Home their own. Once you subscribe, we send a short onboarding form — mostly links to information you already have online. Your dashboard gives you your publications, property selections and posting preferences.

$99 CAD / month

One subscription. All four parts included. Your community stays exclusive while your subscription remains active.

And remember: you decide where to share it.

Will it be you?

Currently by invitation only.
