The Power of Facebook Lead Forms for Real Estate Agencies

Facebook Lead Forms are low-cost, high-volume - if done right. But most real estate agents fail because they underestimate the technical setup and follow-up process.

Our Experience: Real Talk from a Recent Project


When working with real estate business, we faced a critical Meta Ads account flag due to poor lead quality metrics. Meta's guidelines are increasingly strict on form transparency, privacy policies, and user experience. A simple misstep like an unclear privacy policy or non-compliant form fields can get your account restricted. Especially in real estate industry, where your ads will have a special "housing" category.


We had to:


  • Revise the Lead Form copy to be more explicit about the offer and data usage.
  • Add a Privacy Policy link directly in the form.
  • Implement a 5-minute follow-up rule via SMS and email to reduce delayed responses (Meta tracks lead engagement speed!).


Since making these adjustments, lead quality scores improved, and the cost per lead dropped by 87%.


Setup Checklist:


  • Instant Forms with minimum and optional fields (Name, Phone, Email).
  • Offer a valuable lead magnet (e.g., Free Home Valuation, Market Report).
  • Ensure Privacy Policy is linked within the form.
  • Automate a follow-up within 5 minutes of submission.
  • Monitor Meta's Lead Quality Score and Cost regularly.

    by Kristians Stepins • 22 August 2025
    Getting featured in the press sounds like something only big brands can achieve. But in reality, even a small business can land PR backlinks and media mentions - you just need to know where to look. One of the easiest ways is through tools like HARO (Help a Reporter Out) and its alternatives. These platforms connect journalists who need expert insights with business owners, entrepreneurs, and professionals like you. The result? Exposure, credibility, and high-quality backlinks from trusted media sites.

    How to Easily Get Backlinks and Brand Mentions (Beginner-Friendly Method Most Businesses Miss)

    by Kristians Stepins • 21 August 2025
    Quick Answer (60 seconds) One of the easiest ways to get high-quality backlinks - without cold emails, spammy directories, or spending money - is to reach out to the tools and platforms you already use in your business. Many SaaS companies (task managers, CRMs, design tools, proposal software, etc.) publish customer case studies or success stories. If you share how their product helped your business, they’ll often feature you on their site - and (hopefully) give you a do-follow backlink.
