Does a social media post count as advertising in Nebraska?

NREC writes its rule for advertising in any medium, and a market-update post that invites contact is advertising. The safest place for the disclosures is inside the image itself, because a caption can be truncated and a bio can be missed.

Real estate advertising rules in Nebraska

Advertising must prominently display the name the broker does business under as recorded with the Commission, and where a team or affiliated licensee name is used, the broker name must be similar or greater in size AND visibility, and adjacent to it.

What has to be on the post

the licensed name of your brokerage

Title 299, Ch. 2 is a SIZE rule, not just a mention: the brokerage name must be drawn at least 100% the size of the largest agent contact text in the ad. A layout that satisfies a lighter state fails here.

The part that is easy to get wrong

Nebraska asks for size and adjacency together, and adds visibility as a third test that no tool can measure for you.

The numbers, in one place

Nebraska advertising requirements, in figures
1	requirement NREC puts on the ad itself
51	US jurisdictions LOKAL carries, read at the source
15	of them set a text SIZE rule, not just a mention
2	require the licence number on the advertisement
100 %	the minimum size of the broker name against yours here
2026	the year this rule was last read at the source
29 %	of US jurisdictions turn this into a measurable size rule
14,853	US markets LOKAL can pre-fill, down to the ZIP code
$29	a month for the tool that checks this before you post

A worked example, and why one template cannot do it

Two states contradict each other outright, and it is the clearest case study of why this matters. Texas asks for the broker name at 50 % of the largest agent contact text; Illinois asks for 100 %. A layout built for Texas is therefore non-compliant in Illinois, and the difference is not a missing word but a font size. That result is only visible if something measures the pixels after drawing them, which is what LOKAL does before you post, using the 100 % Nebraska requires.

Where this comes from

NREC, Title 299, Ch. 2. Read the rule at the source

Your state regulator is not the only one with a say. These federal sources apply on top of Title 299, Ch. 2, and no state commission will remind you of them:

LOKAL reproduces published regulator guidance and checks what it draws against it. It is not legal advice, and it does not replace your broker's review.

LOKAL checks this on the image, not on a form.

Pick your market, set your signature once, and LOKAL measures what it actually drew against Title 299, Ch. 2 before you post. It carries all 51 US jurisdictions.

How this page is written and checked

Written by the engineering team at INEYA Studio, the software studio that builds LOKAL. The Nebraska rule on this page was read at NREC's own published text in 2026, not summarised from a third party.

It is checked automatically on every build against the compliance table the product itself applies: Title 299, Ch. 2 appears on this page only because LOKAL enforces exactly that rule when it draws your image. A page that claimed a requirement the product does not check would fail the build.
