One of the most rewarding experiences working in the home-buying industry is the process of helping your clients find their dream home. Whether you are the mortgage broker who secured them the best rate or the real estate agent who searched high and low to find the perfect home - it is always a joy to see your clients happy. With that said, the closing gift can play a more important role than people realize. Not only do you want to congratulate your client on their purchase, but it is also a chance for you to thank them for choosing you over your competition.
Custom Painting
One of the most sentimental gifts you can give your client is a custom painting of their new home. For many people, moving is a significant milestone in their life. Whether they are a young couple buying their first home or empty-nesters wanting to downsize, moving into a new home is an important milestone. Not to mention, giving your clients a painting that they can keep for years to come will make you stand out from everyone else in your industry.
Candle Making Class
In recent years, candle-making classes have become incredibly popular. It is a place where people can unwind and create a candle custom to their preferences. Not only will your clients have a tangible gift to use in their new home, but they get to go through the experience of making it themselves - which is better than any store-bought candle.
Basket Full of Their Favorite Snacks/Drinks
Helping someone find the perfect home means spending a lot of time with them. Throughout this process, you will notice your clients' habits, likes/dislikes, and what they like to do in their free time. So what better way to congratulate them than with a basket full of their favorite goodies! Go to your local grocery store and pick out everything yourself to make it a thoughtful gift, rather than buying it from a catalog.
