Real Estate Company Logo Designs

The whole world is experiencing a real estate boom. There are over 1.1 million Real Estate players in the US alone. The Real Estate companies here constantly jostle for their share of pie of this very hot industry. No matter whether you are a seasoned realtor or just a beginner in the field, you have to make constant display of your expertise if you want to survive in this industry crowded with competitors. An effective logo designing real estate logo design can be your best instrument for sending across your messages to your targeted customers.

Real Estate is a field where the Real Estate Logos can act as a deciding factor for your business. Homes, hotels----the basic products of Real Estate industry---have some romantic elements in them. People save and plan and dream for years to have the home of their dreams. Couples spend hours in planning over exotic vacations in a five star spa logo. The Real Estate logos must incorporate this dream element in their logo design approach, so that it takes just a single glimpse to sparks off the imagination of your clientele.

Real Estate logos must be emotion evoking: So the first lesson is: weave your real estate logo on this dream factor. Just simply adding a clipart logo of a house does not make an effective Real Estate logo. In fact it doesn't incorporate the appropriate message about the business at all. For homes are not just concrete structures---they are the dreams coming true, they are about formation of families, they are about warmth, they are about a place where love is found. An intelligent Real Estate logo would try to cash in such emotions of common human beings. So if you are engaged in the business of residential complex construction, add an image of nest instead of a brick and mortar construction----it will signify: your company does not sell mere buildings, it helps to build up homes.

But Real Estate business is not only about residential complexes, the Realtors build multiplexes, malls, stadiums, factories and what not! As a designer, you have to first spot the targeted customers of the company----the logo of a Real Estate company that builds huge bridges will markedly differ from that of a company that is a specialist in the construction of industrial complexes. Here also you have to feel the pulse of the targeted audience..try to strike on the right string of the emotion of the prospective customers, at the same time stressing on the theme of "energy and dynamism" as seen in the top 10 theme park logos.

A factory project is enwrapped in years of dedication, huge monetary investment and high level of risk of the entrepreneur (read Survival Tips for Entrepreneurs), the stadium involves the dream of all sports-lovers, bridges are associated with the iron determination of the nation builders. So adding a mere image of a bridge or stadium in the Real Estate Logos may turn out to be too predictable and as a result it will lack the quality of lasting impression. As for instance, you can bring some creative twist in the design (read 10 tips to avoid creative procrastination) by shaping up the type face itself as a bridge instead of placing an image of bridge at the beginning of the company name.

Try to bring out the essence of the company in its Real Estate Logo design: Also try to emphasize on the special attributes of the Company. As for example, if the company wants to convey their environment friendliness through their logo (as seen in Government Agency logos), use the color green in abundance and use curvy lines to bring about a soft, fresh, breezy effect. Or make use of color aqua, if for example, a hotel project is situated near some kind of water body, to emphasize on the locational advantage of the property.

Thus to design an effective Real Estate logo, you have to be the interpreter of dreams. Also capitalize on the unique attributes of a Real Estate company. Now try to give shape to these factors with the appropriate lines and colors. Add to it a bit of common sense and here you go with the most fabulous Real Estate Logos.

Role of Real Estate Logo Design

Real Estate is a business whose roots can be found in the origin of towns and cities long, long ago. The Real Estate business is related to the land – selling and buying of immovable property. And the land being the gift of nature to man as the basis of sustenance and the major component of any business – people earn their living through land and exist on land – it thrives as long as the last one of the present businesses and the last person of the present population last, which means there is no ending to this business.

The other businesses may flourish at one time and then may fade away after some time because of the changes in the customers’ way of life which is dependent on the development of science and technology, but the real estate business stays put with a minor recessions now and then and a spell of stagnation in an area or two. Even in case of complete evacuation of the residents and closure of all business in a town due to natural calamities such as floods and earthquakes, or due to running dry of natural resources such as mines becoming barn and ports being closed for some inexplicable reasons, the real estate business has a lucrative market relocating the evacuees and their businesses in some other area!!

The size of the land is fixed but the size of the population is not, which means the people using the land grow more and more while the arable land stays the same. This is where the demand and supply is imbalanced. Humans with their large and well-developed brains have tried their best to stretch the land to its limits, with dire consequences to the ecology, by cutting down the forests and wiping out the other animals totally, levelling up the jagged terrain, and by stretching it upward by building skyscrapers! And naturally the Real Estate business has a continuous market, either vertical or horizontal!

Even though the name might be different, the real estate business has been with us for hundred of thousands of years. The arable land used to be in the hands of the rulers in the ancient and medieval times, and the rulers granted temporary ownership or ‘title’ to those who were very loyal to them. These ‘landlords’ (lords, barons, counts, dukes, etc.) did not work on the land in their possession but leased them to the other people, usually poor people, who were willing to work on it on payment of some fee (rent) in return, and the landlords kept some portion of the income for themselves and paid the rest in the form of tribute or in some cases by supplying work force or soldiers to the rulers.

This process had a huge flaw in it: the rulers were dethroned quite frequently and new rulers were crowned, and the new rulers naturally cancelled all the land grants of the previous rulers and granted the same lands afresh to their own preferred loyal subjects. This created uncertainty among the masses because nobody wanted to work on the lands without certainty because cultivation was a year long process and one farmer (peasant) sowed the seeds and tended until it was ready to be reaped but the fruits of his labour would be enjoyed by someone else! Gradually, after several protests and revolutions in several different parts of the world some time at the end of the medieval age, new regulations had been formulated to make land ownership more stable with permanent rights of ownership to the ‘landlords’, and consequently, more certainty in the minds of the tenants. {The regulations and reforms are still being formulated even to this day!}

In the modern times, however, once a person ‘purchases’ a piece land, agriculture or housing, and gets his/her land registered with a government agency, registrar’s office, it is his legally, and he can sell, lease, let (rent) or pass it on to his children or relatives.

This present multi-billion dollar and multi-national real estate business had very humble beginnings:

Until some fifty or so years ago the business of selling and buying of the land and buildings was mostly a matter handled by local ‘brokers’, inevitably the local unemployed or retired people with the knowledge of the lie of the land, who acted just as middlemen between the seller and the buyer. The transactions were simple and direct and the deal was closed with a few negotiations.

Over the years, however, the ‘local activity’ of ‘land and house’ brokerage has grown into a regional affair as a result of more and more large factories, mills and companies showing up in places nobody has ever thought of before, depending on the access to raw material, work force or means of transport such as a railway line or a port in the vicinity. And naturally there is a demand for the land – a sleepy village grows into a bustling city in a matter of a couple of years. The best example could be California. With the gold rush in 1848-1852, a non-descriptive place that had originally been a part of Mexico transformed into such a prosperous region that it had to be hastily included as a state in the USA. Some insignificant fishing villages bloomed into large ports as a result of the discovery of a particular fish, some sort of fossil fuel or some other kind of raw material or mineral being tapped in a near-by area.

A more recent event, which I happened to stumble upon on the Net, is ‘Slifer & Company’ the real estate agency in Vail Valley in Colorado, which a Mr. Rod Slifer started in 1968. It is very interesting to learn how an out of the way place changed into a tourist attraction centre with ski resorts and other holiday activities in near-by Beaver Creek, and how the ‘one-man housing agency’ was developed into a real estate business of international recognition within a decade! [Now the Vail Valley has several real estate agencies, handling physical and virtual markets with links and hyper-links.]

The real estate is undoubtedly a prosperous business, but as there are hitches in the other businesses, the real estate business also has its own ups and downs. As there are several factors that boost the growth of this business in a region, so are there several factors, such as recession, government change-over, stock market fluctuation, etc. that act adversely leading the entire business in a region to the gallows.

Of the several categories of deals: agricultural land deals, commercial land deals, residential deals with letting, leasing and selling or buying, maintaining the property, etc., the most lucrative may be the commercial and residential deals. And in residential deals, selling and buying is more profitable than simple letting (renting) because the legalities and bank transactions involved are numerous, and consequently, the number of clients is more and the percentage of commission is high.

However, buying a house is not an everyday affair. Once a potential customer buys a house he/she is going to live in it for the most part of his/her life. It may be another 30 or 40 years, if at all, before another deal on the same house comes on to the market, which makes this business progressive all the time in general but limited in terms of number in particular most of the time. This factor, along with the other factor of the limited availability of the arable land, makes this real estate business literally a cut-throat market. (It has become common place to see an item or two in the news broadcast every day how two rival real estate agents used violent methods in the process of acquiring dominance. There have been incidents where the underworld mafia dons are involved making this lucrative business bloody.)

In this systematic chaos only one thing keeps a real estate agency in the ‘green zone’ and that is ‘honesty’! That honesty in the dealings must be exposed before and after a deal is closed. After a successful deal everybody is happy and the client may show his client-loyalty by recommending the agency to some of his friends and relatives.

But how do you make the client trust the firm before the deal?

This is where the agency’s own advertisement designer plays a pivotal role.

{One would not stop wondering how a logo can cause reactions that are really damaging to the logo designer and the business that has the logo. The best example can be the logo designed for ‘London 2012 Olympics disaster’ – a causal visit to their official website shows us the aversion people have to a ‘bad’ logo design. Check out the top 10 Olympics Logos.}

In contrast with the other physical market items where the product can be seen and appraised by the customer directly, in real estate business, the value of a piece of land or a building depends more on the other factors, such as access to roads, proximity of shopping centres, medical logos facilities, schools, and the amenities, such as water, electricity, etc. In addition, the transfer of ownership of land is very complicated with ‘n’ number of legalities involved; therefore, the real estate market in the districts with fewer restrictions is more lucrative. Most of the first time buyers are not aware of these factors or cannot experience them without having used that property for some considerable time. So, these essentials must be guaranteed by the agent or realtor, and the assurance made in the ad must be felt by the client … at a glance!

Chateaux World Ltd looks classic representing some medieval Lord’s coat-of-arms, and it has to be because the company deals with ‘classic houses and castles’; ‘AZ Realty Pro’s LLC’ is a bold Arizona Logo Design in real sense, showing the cactus plant with pale red showing the dryness and hotness of Arizona state; ‘The Kircher Team’ says everything without having to utter a word – the pleasing colours and perfect lines have done the job well; ‘Imperial Homes’ showing some design juggling with I and H being overlapped with the purple colour that represents royalty; ‘Step by Step Inspections, Inc.’ a cleverly designed logo having a pun in it, the foot-prints being used to show the “stages” of a long process of building inspection; ‘Safe haven’ is a classic example of the text and symbol mixed logo; and the ‘Highlands Development Group’ is classic by itself, looking so pleasant one would want to be there.
