Model Home Signs
Home builders and new communities post a model home sign at the subdivision entrance and at each turn that leads to the show home. The extra line can give your hours, such as Open daily 10 AM to 5 PM, so buyers know when the model and the office are open.

Where model home signs are used
Builders often place a panel beside the sales trailer at the curb, where a buyer parks before walking up to the model. A second panel can stand on the front lawn of the model, so a visitor who has already turned in knows they have found the right door. Crews also use one on the gate of a fenced construction yard next to the model, where trucks come in and out all week. The problem it solves is simple: buyers who drive through a new neighborhood have no way to tell which house is open.
Choosing the size and where to hang it
Put the 24 by 18 inch panel at the first turn inside the neighborhood, angled toward drivers coming from the entrance. The 12 by 18 inch size suits a post along the walk to the model. Aluminum holds up to weather through a long build, and plastic is light for a temporary spot. Reflective aluminum makes sense on a street that buyers drive after work. Check your state and local rules before placing a sign on a public right of way.
Questions about model home signs
Where should a model home sign be placed?
Set one at the subdivision entrance and at each turn that leads to the model. A 24 x 18 in landscape sign reads from a car on the street, and a 12 x 18 in portrait sign suits a post in a planting bed. Towns often limit signs on public streets, so check local rules first.
Can I change the open hours later?
Yes. The sample line Open daily 10 AM to 5 PM prints under the two main words, and the preview shows any change as you type. Type your hours exactly as buyers should read them. A printed line stays fixed, so order a new sign when your schedule changes.
Which colors and material suit a builder's sign?
White on blue reads clean and modern, black on white is the plainest look, and white on green suits a community with mature trees. Aluminum is the better pick for a build that runs many months, since it is rust-free at .040 in. Plastic works for a temporary entrance.
Will the panel still look right after a season outdoors?
Aluminum uses a gloss UV print on a rust-free panel, so it suits a sign that stays out through a season. Plastic is a lighter panel printed on one side only, and it suits a temporary post. Either way, the live preview shows the final artwork before you order.
How many panels does a new community need?
There is no single number. Place one panel at each entrance and at each turn where the road splits toward the model, then add one near the parking spot. Five or more panels save 10 percent, and ten or more save 15 percent.
