Here are 15 of our favorite real estate pop-buys, with links to purchasing, pricing, gifting strategies, and which ones best fit your list of past clients. We based our per-gift pricing on how much it costs to order a template or pre-printed tag and added that to the cost of the item that the tag might accompany. We divided that by about 20 pop-buy gift sets.

Some of these real estate pop-buy gift ideas make more sense for a large farming operation, while some are better for a handful of past clients at a time. I personally used to make gift sets one at a time and hand them over whenever a previous customer sent one to me. It was always the perfect way to quickly say thank you to an old client, strengthen that relationship, and continue to grow in my field.
