Design an 8.5" x 11" EDDM Real Estate Mailer (Front & Back)

Contest Brief

Project Description

I am looking for a graphic designer to create a clean, high-impact 8.5" x 11" direct mail flyer for a real estate marketing campaign.

This piece will be mailed using USPS Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM), so the layout must comply with EDDM guidelines.

The goal of the mailer is to reach homeowners who may be thinking about selling but are hesitant to sign a traditional listing agreement.

The design should feel:

• clean
• modern
• trustworthy
• easy to read in 3–5 seconds

Avoid typical flashy real estate postcard designs. The message should be the focus.
