Sharing a Post or Video to Facebook

You will need a Facebook account to get started. Sign up for free here. 

If you intend to use Facebook to promote your real estate business, then you should follow these instructions to create a new Facebook Business Page or convert an existing profile into a page. This keeps you in compliance with Facebook's Terms of Service and will allow you to run ads on Facebook.

• IMPORTANT NOTE: You can and should publish real estate-related posts to your personal profile from time to time as well. But you won't be able to run ads on those posts, and if you do it too much, Facebook might delete your profile entirely.

Below are instructions for publishing a post to Facebook from the Social Media Post Library.
