Real Estate Mission Statements to Inspire You

Real Estate Mission Statements to Inspire You

For real estate agents, an “About Us” section should explain who you are and what you do. A mission statement explains the “why.” Read on to see examples from the best firms around the country.

How to Write a Mission Statement

A mission statement can be the final push that motivates a potential buyer or seller to work with you. Agents’ mission statements often include themes like integrity, industry knowledge, and innovation.

The best mission statements, however, go a step further. They express what is unique to a real estate company in particular, touching upon the firm’s singular expertise.

Some real estate businesses use bullet points to keep mission statements succinct and easy to read. Paragraph form is fine as well, but you should still work to use simple language and short sentences.

Go for clarity over trying to sound overly erudite. (Cue the episode of “Friends” when Joey uses a thesaurus to replace every word in a recommendation letter with a “smarter” word.) In the end, it makes no sense. We found one example on the web that goes a little too over the top:

“Our mission is to provide the consumer with the highest level of service of any Real Estate company thereby ensuring that properties are sold or leased in an exemplary manner. We endeavor to deliver professional service to clients and customers so that transactions are completed to the satisfaction of all concerned.”

Lighten up! You can express serious values without sounding convoluted. Our favorite real estate mission statements are short, sweet, and to the point. Take cues from these inspiring examples.

14 Great Real Estate Mission Statements

There’s no better way to explain what a great example looks like than to include actual real estate mission statements. Read on to see our favorites from firms around the country.

We picked these firms because their statements stuck out to us as interesting, unique, or both.

Sherpa Real Estate

To give the highest level of Real Estate representation and advocacy that we can while working as Buyer and Seller agents, always learning, growing and collaborating as a team to improve our skill and service levels. Continually reinventing processes using innovative technology to support excellent service. Finding the most value interacting with the people we serve and our colleagues while promoting the wellbeing of humanity in the process.

Our take: This statement is a little long, but it delves into some great subjects, including technology and dedication to a higher cause.

2. Taylor Real Estate Group

Our mission is to help families create a meaningful legacy for future generations. A portion of the revenue generated from our Real Estate business is donated to local charities that help families combat homelessness, escape abuse, and overcome addiction. We also help support families that are less fortunate through the work of Habitat for Humanity.

Our take: Even better than Sherpa’s statement, Taylor Real Estate Group’s mission goes a step beyond saying how they work to support the community.
