Directional Sign Help

My love-hate relationship with the directional sign continues. I severely dislike putting up directional signage. My municipality on allows a directional sign on the weekend. So it is a BIG hassle.

But the competition uses a ton of directional signage and I get complaints from my sellers if I don’t use some directional signage for their property.

It is time to re-order and I need some help with design. In the photo below you will see proofs of two designs I am currently contemplating. If you have any comments, suggestions or criticism I would greatly appreciate the comments.

I just dont understand why agents need to blanket a neighborhood with directional signs. In the old days driving directions were iffy and the use of a couple of directional signs was understandable. Everybody uses iPhone Maps or google maps now so what’s up. It is a selfish behavior on the part of agents who for some reason dont respect the neighborhood. Put up one sign at the street entrance and then let it work.
