Real estate agent gifts that clients cherish forever
Personalised hand-drawn house portraits - the closing gift that’s kept, framed, and remembered
Why most real estate agent gifts get forgotten
You’ve just helped your client buy their dream home. A life-changing moment. So why end it with a bottle of wine or a restaurant voucher?
🎁 Chocolates are eaten.
🍷 Champagne is popped.
💳 Gift cards? Lost in a drawer.
🧺 Hampers? Picked over, forgotten, and rarely remembered.
Most real estate agent gifts are forgettable - and your hard-earned client relationship fades with them.
Your clients deserve more!
The ideal closing gift - for buyers and sellers
Imagine your client unwrapping a hand-drawn portrait of their new home. Their eyes widen. They smile. Some even tear up.
That’s what happens when you give a gift that says:
“This mattered. You mattered.”
Each portrait is:
✍️ Hand-drawn in ink (not AI or digital).
🖼️ Ready to frame and proudly display.
🎨 Playful, imperfect, and full of charm - just like the homes they celebrate.
Whether you're a seasoned agent or just starting out, these personalized realtor gifts help you stand out and stay remembered.
Meet the artist: Cornelia Luethi
I'm Cornelia, an artist based in Kerikeri, and I specialise in creating hand-drawn house portraits that capture the unique charm of each home. My journey into this niche began with a simple realisation: traditional closing gifts like wine or vouchers are often fleeting and impersonal.
I wanted to offer something different - something that resonates on a deeper level. That's when I started sketching homes, not just as structures, but as vessels of memories and milestones. Each portrait I create is a personalised piece of art that clients can treasure for years to come.
By choosing a custom house portrait as your closing gift, you're not just giving a present; you're providing a lasting reminder of a significant life event. It's a thoughtful gesture that stands out, showing your clients that you value their journey and the place they now call home.

How to order a house portrait
Ordering a house portrait is easy! Here’s how it works, step by step:
1. Place your order
Visit my Shop, choose your house portrait, and make the payment. Be sure to check the current turnaround time, as I only take on a limited number of commissions each month. If you have a special date in mind, please order as early as possible - I do my best to meet deadlines, but courier delivery times are outside of my control.
Note: If I have sold all my commission spots for the month, be sure to sign up to my newsletter to be notified when my sketchbook opens again for new commissions. Scroll to the bottom of this web page to see my newsletter signup box.
2. Answer a few questions at checkout
During the checkout process, I will ask you a few questions to gather the essential details I need.
3. Email me your house photos
After completing your order, you’ll need to email me photos of your house. I’ve prepared a handy guide, ‘How to photograph your house’, to make this step easy and help you get the best result.
4. Confirmation & turnaround
Once I have your photos and all the details, I will review everything and email you to confirm. If anything is unclear, I will be in touch before starting. The turnaround time begins once I confirm that I have all I need. I will also let you know when you can expect your finished portrait.
