How estate agents use digital signage

  • Replace window cards

    A rotating feed shows far more listings than paper cards, and price changes go live in seconds.

  • Work when the branch is closed

    Evening and weekend passers-by still see new instructions, reductions and sold boards.

  • Promote valuations and mortgages

    Mix listings with valuation offers and in-house mortgage advice between properties.

  • Keep every branch consistent

    Schedule one playlist across all branches, with local listings per window.

Questions we're asked by estate agents

What brightness do estate agent window displays need?

For a south-facing window in direct sun, 3,500 nits. For a bright street with some shade, about 2,500 nits. For a covered or north-facing window, 800 nits is enough. Consumer TVs (around 350 nits) wash out behind glass.

Should estate agent screens be portrait or landscape?

Portrait (9:16) is standard because property listings are designed tall, with the photo above the price and details. Landscape suits video tours on an inside wall.

Can the screens show listings from our CRM automatically?

Yes. With a cloud CMS, listings can be pulled from a property feed so new instructions and price changes update without anyone touching the screen.

How much does an estate agent window display cost?

An 800-nit window display starts at £499 ex VAT and a 3,500-nit display at £1,770 ex VAT. A typical two-screen window with hanging kit and cloud content is quoted per branch.
