The Buy-A-Home of Bay County is a full (4) color full size (approx. 8.5"x11") magazine that is highly distributed in Bay County. The Buy-A-Home started 13 years ago as the first color real estate magazine in Bay County. Printing mostly on bookstock paper, the same paper that books are printed with, makes the Buy-A-Home much easier to read.

Real Estate Magazines are considered as a 30 day disposable product, even though many of the magazines are over 6 months old we people use them to call about properties. In an area like Bay County where tourist pick up anything Free but only a percentage of people take the time to look it; the low cost of the Buy-A-Home it ideal for this required high distribution.

The Buy-A-Home philosophy is to put the magazine in any place that will allow them. Most of the distribution occurs at gas stations, grocery stores, and restaurants. We intentionally place more magazines than what is expect to be picked up. The left over is not wasted, we place the old issue in distribution points along the Interstate 10 and in Tallahassee.

The Buy-A-Home was also the first in Bay County to have the policy that all customers would be sent a proof of the ad. It is our goal that all customers are happy with the ads that they place.
