How to Customize Your Open House Flyer Using Canva (Step-by-Step)

Creating a professional open house flyer doesn’t have to be complicated. In this tutorial, we’ll walk you through how to customize our Canva Open House Flyer Template, perfect for real estate agents who want a clean, polished look without hiring a designer.

One of the key principles from *The Millionaire Real Estate Agent* (MREA) by Gary Keller is the power of building systems for every part of your business, including your marketing. Creating open house flyers with Canva is a simple way to put that into action. Instead of starting from scratch every time, you can use a consistent system that saves you time, strengthens your brand, and keeps your business moving forward.

Step 1: Access the Canva Template

Start by opening the flyer template using this link:

If you don’t have a Canva account yet, you’ll be prompted to create a free one. Once you're logged in, click "Use Template" to open a copy you can customize.

Pro Tip: If you want even more options, you can also find other open house flyer templates by going to Canva and typing "Open House" into the search bar. Canva has a wide variety of layouts you can explore and customize based on your brand and style.

Step 2: Replace the Listing Photos

Click on any photo in the template to select it.

Then, click "Replace Image" and upload your listing photos.

Tip: Choose 3-4 high-quality images that show off the best features, like the exterior, kitchen, living room, or primary bedroom.

Step 3: Update the Property Details

Next, update all the text with your property information:

• Property Address
• Price
• Open House Date and Time
• Key features (like bedrooms, bathrooms, and square footage)

Simply click on the text boxes and type in your details.

Step 4: Add Your Branding

Personalize the flyer with your brand by:

• Uploading your headshot
• Adding your name, phone number, email, and website
• Swapping out the logo if needed to match your brokerage

If you're a Canva Pro user, you can easily pull from your saved Brand Kit for an even faster update.

Step 5: Customize Fonts and Colors (Optional)

Want the flyer to match your brand even more?

Click any element to change fonts, colors, or layouts using Canva’s editing tools.

Tip: Stick with clean, simple fonts for a polished and professional look.

Step 6: Download Your Flyer

Once your flyer looks the way you want, it’s time to download it.

Click the Share button in the top right, then choose Download.

• PDF Print is best if you plan to print your flyer.
• PNG is ideal for posting on social media or emailing digitally.

Step 7: Share Your Open House Flyer

You’re ready to promote your open house!

Ways to use your flyer:

• Post on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn
• Email it to your database or sphere
• Print copies for the office or distribute at local businesses
