What should a bandit sign say and where should it go?

Bandit signs earn their leads through a short message, bold contrast, and smart placement, all tuned to who you are trying to reach.

• Research your target audience before you write the message: wholesalers targeting motivated sellers do well with direct lines like "We Buy Houses Cash," while listing agents benefit from "Just Listed" or "Open House" signs placed near the property.
• Keep it to five to seven words with bold, high-contrast colors like yellow and black.
• Place signs at high-traffic intersections, facing oncoming traffic, 3 to 4 feet off the ground, and add high-visibility directional signage to steer traffic toward showings.
• Use only a phone number as the call to action.
• Replace faded or damaged signs weekly to keep a professional look.
• Track calls with dedicated numbers, and test different messages in similar locations to measure what's working.
