We understand that it is important to get your home sold for the best value and in the least amount of time. Here are some key strategies that can help to achieve this.
Staging
Statistics show that staged homes which are professionally photographed sell approximately ten times faster than homes without these advantages. Staging is one of the most crucial steps in getting your home ready to sell well. Many aspects of staging can be accomplished by the home owner, including de-cluttering, cleaning and tidying. Professional staging is also a very powerful option.
Professional Photography
Professional photography is one of the most essential home listing strategies. The difference between selling a home in eight days versus eight months can simply come down to it. When paired with professional staging, it is extra powerful. The goal is to give buyers a view of the staged home that allows them to imagine themselves moving in and generates real interest in buying.
Virtual Tours
Not all buyers are local, and virtual tours can be a fantastic selling tool. For a potential buyer from out-of-state in particular, virtual tours can be very enticing and effective. Even for local buyers, they can draw more serious people to visit your listing in person.
The Internet
Technology can help get positive attention for your home. Professional photos of your well-staged home will reach a large audience. Photos of your listing will appear on our website. We will also send them to sites and social media such as Realtor.com, Trulia, Zillow, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and Pinterest.
Open Houses
When appropriate, we will hold an Open House for your home. Traditionally, Open Houses were almost the only way to sell a home. With modern strategies and technology, they are rapidly being replaced. The sad news is that these days, many Open Houses only draw curious neighbors. For higher-end homes, they can help draw Realtors with specific clients interested in your area and price range. In these circumstances, they can still be effective.
We reach out to all our clients on a weekly basis. Sharing the news of an awesome new listing is one way we maximize the chances of selling your home quickly.
Printed Matter
Your home will appear in the digital world, but it can also be shown in print. Newspaper listings for Realtors, newspaper advertisements for the public, and printed flyers are some of the outlets we find to be effective.
MLS Listing
When your home is ready for market, we will list it on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) to help get the word out. All Realtors and their clients will be able to see your beautiful home for sale.
