Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) advertising is transforming how real estate brands connect with audiences. Unlike traditional billboards, DOOH uses dynamic, data-driven screens in public spaces to create eye-catching, real-time experiences that not only build awareness but also drive meaningful actions.
Have you ever noticed a massive digital billboard lighting up a busy downtown street, or interacted with a digital kiosk in a mall? That’s DOOH in action—delivering your brand’s message directly to people as they move through their daily lives. And it works: 76% of consumers say they’ve taken action after seeing a DOOH ad, whether that’s visiting a website, attending an open house, or contacting a realtor. Even better, 73% of consumers view DOOH positively, compared to just 41% for online pop-ups.
For real estate brands, where visibility and trust are everything, DOOH is one of the most powerful tools to stand out in an increasingly competitive market.
DOOH leverages digital screens—billboards, interactive kiosks, and displays in transit hubs or retail centers—to showcase content like property videos, open house invites, and live updates. Unlike static posters, DOOH campaigns can be updated instantly, keeping your listings and offers fresh.
Here’s where your real estate brand can shine with DOOH:
Digital Billboards
High-visibility screens along highways or in city centers reach thousands of commuters daily. In fact, over 70% of drivers say they look at roadside billboards, making them prime spots for real estate ads.
Transit Advertising
Screens in airports, train stations, and bus stops capture the attention of travelers and commuters—an audience that averages over 2 hours per day in transit environments.
Interactive Kiosks
Found in shopping centers and malls, these let users browse property listings or even take virtual tours, creating deeper engagement.
Retail Store Digital Screens
Place screens in real estate offices or local businesses to spotlight featured properties and neighborhood highlights, increasing foot traffic.
Stadium and Arena Screens
With sports fans spending an average of 3+ hours per game, arena screens offer captive audiences and premium visibility for your listings.
Elevator Digital Signage
Ads in office towers or apartment elevators target local professionals and urban renters during micro-moments of attention.
Real estate decisions often start with awareness. DOOH excels at generating visibility and building top-of-mind recognition—even among people not actively house-hunting.
Broad Reach in High-Traffic Areas: DOOH puts your message where people already are—shopping, commuting, attending events—ensuring high exposure.
Dynamic, Real-Time Flexibility: Showcase new listings instantly, promote weekend open houses, or highlight community events with content that adapts daily (or even hourly).
Engagement at Scale: Interactive features—like QR codes, touchscreens, or mobile retargeting—turn casual passersby into active leads.
Stronger Recall: Research shows DOOH ads are 2.5x more impactful in driving recall compared to static billboards. That’s huge in a market where being remembered is half the battle.
Know Your Audience
Map your ideal buyers and renters—whether they’re professionals, families, or investors—and place ads where they spend their time.
Leverage Real-Time Content
Use contextual triggers like weather, traffic, or local events to make your messaging hyper-relevant. For example, advertise waterfront homes on a sunny day.
Use Bold, Dynamic Content
Video, 3D animations, and vibrant visuals drive attention. Studies show animated DOOH ads attract 5x more attention than static ones.
Target High-Traffic Locations
Think malls, transit hubs, stadiums, and business districts. Adjust campaigns by time of day to reach morning commuters, lunchtime shoppers, or evening event-goers.
