Industry: Real Estate

Service: Social

Background:

Divvy Homes is a modern-day rent-to-own solution that helps renters become homeowners. They purchase the home a renter wants and lease it back for three years, allowing them to save for ownership. A portion of each rent payment goes toward the down payment.

Challenge:

Facebook ads were their most significant source of leads for Divvy, and they needed to hit for their investors. Those chose us because they needed a team with knowledge of the real estate industry and a proven track record of success with Facebook advertising in this market.

With a budget of $100k/mo. on Facebook and Instagram, they needed a way to acquire more quality leads who pre-qualified for Divvy’s rent-to-own program. Their cost per result (Pre-Qualification & Approved, “PQA”) was over $200, making it necessary to lower acquisition costs while maintaining lead quality

Solution:

We implemented a strategy that focused on high-performing video ads, which outperformed the static image ads Divvy had been using historically. Additionally, we leveraged higher-quality lookalike audiences to drive down acquisition costs and improve lead quality.

The Results

Our approach led to significant improvements in Divvy’s campaign performance:

  • The cost per PQA decreased from $210 to an average of $53—a 75% reduction
  • Quality of leads improved while maintaining the same budget
  • Monthly PQAs increased from an average of 416 to 1,887—a 4.5X growth in pre-qualified applicants

This strategy allowed Divvy to scale its rent-to-own program efficiently while meeting investor expectations.
