How to list your events on New Home Buddy

Hosting a grand opening, broker lunch or CE class? Submit it once from the Sales Portal. After a quick review, we put it in front of thousands of agents on four channels.

Agents see builder events right in their portal. Events shown are made up.

Your event, our megaphone

One submission. Four channels. No campaign to set up. Once your event is approved, it goes out everywhere agents already look.

  • Agent and Builder Portals

    On the Events calendar agents and reps see in your market.

  • newhomebuddy.com/events

    On your market’s events page.

  • Weekly agent newsletter

Tips for a full room

  • Submit early

    Give agents time to plan. Two weeks ahead is a good habit.

  • Lead with the value

    “First look at the new model, lunch included” beats “Q2 builder update.”

  • Add an image

    A clear photo or flyer helps your event stand out on the calendar.

  • Invite your top agents

    Pro tip: Agents Most Likely To Sell A Home With You is a ready-made invite list.
