When a real estate transaction closes, it can be a time of great relief and elation for both the client and agent. As an agent, you have worked hard on behalf of your client who has chosen you to assist them on one of the most important decisions that they will ever undertake. That’s why a closing is a time to not only say “job well done” but also “thank you!”  

While it’s not imperative for agents to give a closing gift, it is a very kind gesture that shows you value the relationship and the trust your client has in you. The best gifts are ones that are thoughtful and convey that you appreciate this person for who they are, not just a client.   

Traditionally agents give buyers closing gifts, but they may also give something to the seller as well. Gifts are commonly valued at 1-5% of the commission check. While a physical gift is wonderful, gift cards are always appreciated too, especially for those clients who are not local. Always include a handwritten note with your gift for that personal touch!  

Here are some unique gift ideas that will bring a smile to your client’s face well after closing day.
