Give your customers and clients the impression that you are on the cutting edge. Use 9-digit zip codes, officially known as Zip+4, on all correspondence (they have been around since 1983). 9-digit zip codes enable the U.S. Postal Service to systematically sort mail down to one side of a city block between two intersections, enabling efficiencies and reducing time in transit (your cooperating brokers will appreciate it). Find your 9-digit zip at http://www.usps.com/zip4/
One might also implement postal addressing standards in your office practice, found at http://pe.usps.gov/cpim/ftp/pubs/Pub28/pub28.pdf or in html format at http://pe.usps.gov/text/pub28/welcome.htm
Briefly, the only punctuation that should be in your address is the hyphen in the 9-digit zip.
