Have a Fun Closing Gift Tradition

Closing gifts are a fantastic way to leave a lasting impression and turn clients into lifelong referral sources. Instead of a standard bottle of wine, make your gift a memorable tradition that reflects your personality and brand. Here are some creative and fun ideas:

1. The "First Night Survival Kit" ?✨

• Moving is exhausting! Give your clients a "First Night" survival box with essentials like:
  • Toilet paper, paper towels, and hand soap
  • Snacks, bottled water, or a meal delivery gift card
  • A candle or air freshener to make the house smell amazing
  • A handwritten welcome note

2. "Home Sweet Home" Custom Sign ?️

• A personalized sign or doormat with their family name or "Home Sweet Home" is a great keepsake.
• Bonus: You can add your logo subtly on the back for a referral reminder!

3. Housewarming Map or Neighborhood Guide ?️

• Create a customized map highlighting local coffee shops, restaurants, and parks near their new home.
• You can even include a gift card to a popular local spot!

4. "Key to Your New Home" Shadowbox ?

• Frame a copy of their house key in a shadowbox with a note like:
  • "Every key opens a new adventure. Wishing you endless happiness in your new home!"

5. Monthly Subscription Surprise ?

• Give a 3-month subscription to something fun, such as:
  • HelloFresh or Blue Apron (for easy home-cooked meals)
  • Coffee or wine club
  • Home décor or plant subscription box

6. "Local Flavor" Welcome Basket ??️

• Fill a basket with locally sourced goodies, like:
  • Coffee beans from a neighborhood café
  • Handmade candles or soaps from a small business
  • Local honey, jam, or treats from a farmer's market

7. Time Capsule for Their Home ⏳

• Give them a beautiful box to create a time capsule with:
  • A newspaper from their closing day
  • A letter to themselves to open in 10 years
  • A blank page for family and friends to sign at their first gathering

8. "Movie Night In" Box ??

• Include popcorn, gourmet snacks, and a streaming service gift card (like Netflix or Hulu) for a fun first night in their new home.

9. Personalized "New Home" Ornament ?

• If they're closing near the holidays, gift a custom home ornament with their move-in year.

10. The "Referral Treasure Chest" ?

• Give them a small "treasure chest" (a nice wooden or decorative box) and say:
  • "Every time you refer someone to me, you'll get a special surprise inside!"
  • Fill it with lottery tickets, gift cards, or fun notes whenever they send you a referral.

Creating a signature closing gift tradition helps you stay top-of-mind and makes clients feel truly special. Plus, happy clients = more referrals!
