Real estate blogs that accept guest posts are a small, business-minded niche. On my list, re-checked live in September 2026, 32 sites are tagged real estate: 27 were live and 12 had a domain authority of 40 or more. Examples include houzz.com, internationalliving.com and shelterforce.org. Check each site's current guidelines before you pitch.
Property is one of the most valuable search markets there is. Agents, brokers, mortgage lenders, property managers, investors, builders and the software companies that serve them all compete for the same readers, and they all want links from real estate sites.
That makes real estate sites cautious. Many are run by industry bodies, investment publishers or agencies with a reputation to protect, and they'd rather publish nothing than publish a thin post with a link in it.
This page pulls the real estate sites out of my free list of websites that accept guest posts, which I re-checked site by site in September 2026.
How many real estate blogs on my list still accept guest posts?
| Measure | Count |
|---|---|
| Real estate sites on my list | 32 |
| Live when checked | 27 |
| Live with DA 40 or more | 12 |
| Dead or parked | 5 |
About one in six real estate sites was dead or parked. Fewer than half of the live sites had a domain authority of 40 or more, because many are local agency blogs. The pool is small, so a big property campaign will need to look further.
Which real estate blogs accept guest posts?
Twelve live real estate sites from my list, with their domain authority when I checked:
- houzz.com: DA 90
- internationalliving.com: DA 68
- shelterforce.org: DA 56
- ccim.com: DA 54
- blog.naiop.org: DA 54
- cre.org: DA 47
- yourinvestmentpropertymag.com.au: DA 46
- thinkrealty.com: DA 43
- founterior.com: DA 42
- homesgofast.com: DA 42
- cjhole.co.uk: DA 41
- eliteagent.com: DA 36
The category is small, so the examples above include almost every live site with a domain authority of 40 or more. Guidelines change, so read each site's current write for us page before you pitch.
Investing, commercial, residential or the agent's side?
Real estate readers want very different things:
- Investor sites want posts on rental yields, financing, markets and property strategy.
- Commercial property sites want posts on offices, industrial space, development and policy.
- Home buyer and seller sites want guides to moving, selling, buying and improving a home.
- Agent and broker sites want posts on marketing, technology and running an agency.
Mortgage and finance businesses fit best on investor and buyer sites. Real estate software and marketing services belong on the agent and broker sites, where a business angle is the point.
What do real estate editors want?
Local knowledge and accuracy. Property rules, taxes and buying processes differ between countries and often between cities, so say which market you mean in your title or first paragraph. Editors want figures from a named source and advice that's right for that market.
They also want experience. An agent who has sold hundreds of homes, an investor with a real portfolio or a property manager with stories from the job will get a hearing. A generic list of tips for first-time buyers won't.
Free guest post or sponsored post on a real estate blog?
Industry bodies and investment publishers often accept free posts from members and experts, though they can be slow. Agency blogs are more mixed. Sponsored posts are faster and more predictable, which suits agencies placing posts for property clients against a deadline.
How do you check a real estate blog before you pitch?
- Search site:domain.com. If very few pages come up, move on.
- Read the three newest posts. Is the site still publishing, and who writes for it?
- Check the market they cover. A site for Australian investors won't help a US mortgage broker, however strong it looks.
- Find a name. A real editor you can email beats a form that never replies.
- Ask if posts are permanent. Some sites prune old content in clean-ups.
There's more in how to check backlink quality and my guide to high DA guest posting sites. Property topics often overlap with home life and money, so my home and garden blogs that accept guest posts and finance blogs that accept guest posts pages are useful places to widen your search.
How should you pitch a real estate blog?
Lead with a specific question in a named market. "What landlords in Texas need to know before raising rent" is a pitch. "A property article" is not. Then add two backup titles and a line on your experience in the industry.
Keep the link relevant and modest. One link to a detailed guide, a calculator or a market report is easy for an editor to approve. A keyword like "best realtor near me" stuffed into the introduction is not.
Offer data if you have it. A few figures from your own sales, lettings or listings, explained clearly, give a property editor a reason to choose your post over the rest of the pile.
Can you place a real estate post on my blog?
Yes, when it's about marketing or running a property business: lead generation for agents, social media for realtors, listings that sell, or the tools agencies use. lilachbullock.com is a marketing blog that's been publishing since the dial-up days, with thousands of indexed articles, and my readers are business owners, marketers and entrepreneurs, mostly in the USA and the UK. Buying guides and market updates suit the sites above better. Guidelines are on my real estate page.
How placing a post on my blog works
- Email [email protected], or start on my write for me page, with your target URL, topic and niche.
- I reply with whether it fits and which format I'd pick: a new sponsored post or a link insertion into an existing, indexed article.
- You send the article, or I choose the right existing article for your link.
- I edit, publish and send you the live URL.
Accepted posts usually go live within 24 to 48 hours of everything being agreed. Placements are permanent. I invoice by PayPal, and if you're an agency, I never contact your client.
