Welcome gift for clients buying a home: the detail that seals a recommendation
The real estate transaction ends with the signing, but the relationship with the client does not. A personalized welcome gift — keychain with the address, entrance sign, wooden box with engraved keys — is the difference between "just another intermediary" and "the real estate agency I will recommend to my family." We make it for you in small batches, with deadlines aligned to closing, company invoice.

Real estate agencies usually give at most a bottle of cava or a generic box of chocolates on signing day. It is the gift that is not remembered: it is consumed within a week and disappears from the client's memory. The investment is real (€20-40 per sale) but the return in recommendation/repeat business is low.
The alternative: a personalized physical detail that enters the home and stays. A keychain engraved with the new home's address; a welcome sign with the family surname; a wooden box to store the original keys engraved with the delivery date. Three typical formats with high emotional impact and contained cost.
The metric that matters for your agency: recommendation rate. A real estate transaction is loaded with emotional friction. A closing with a well-thought-out detail leaves the client remembering you positively. The cost of the detail (€15-25) is marginal compared to the value of a recommendation that closes the deal.
Selection that works for closing operations
Five formats with high emotional impact and fast production, customizable with address, surname, or delivery date:
What our service includes for real estate agencies
Customization per operation
Each piece carries the family name or the specific address of the new property. One-by-one production: no generic stock that doesn’t fit the client.
Deadline aligned with closing
You provide the signing date and we produce to arrive 2-3 days before. Firm deadline upon order confirmation.
Open account rate
If you close 5+ operations/month, we open an account with a fixed unit rate and consolidated monthly invoice. No minimum order per operation.
Neutral or branded packaging
By default, the package arrives without visible Picasita branding so your agency can present it as its own. Optionally, we add a card with your agency's logo.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do we need to provide exact addresses or can they be generic?
The recommended option is the exact address: that’s where the added value lies. But we can also engrave just the last name + year, or just the neighborhood if you prefer to keep some discretion in the details.
How long does it take from sending the data until the piece arrives?
The usual turnaround is 5-7 business days after digital proof approval. If your signing date is very tight, we can check express timing on a case-by-case basis.
Can I order the same model for all transactions of the month?
Yes. The most efficient method is to choose a standard model (e.g., leather keychain with address) and order one per transaction as you close them. If you have an open account, we invoice you monthly.
What if the client adds a different signing date at the last minute?
If the order is not yet engraved, we can adjust it. If the piece is already produced, the change requires a new production at the standard price (engraving is permanent).
Do you work with real estate franchises or only with independent agencies?
We work with both. If your franchise has a central gift policy, we can invoice the headquarters or the specific office, whichever you prefer.
Can you also personalize with my agency’s logo?
Yes, on pieces that allow it (large signs, wooden boxes). Production includes your logo once on the visible side + client’s address/name. We ask for the logo in vector format.
Shall we estimate a welcome program for your agency?
Send us the approximate monthly volume of closings and the 2-3 models that suit you best. We will propose a program with fixed rates and deadlines within 48 hours.
