Behind the Scenes

Thru your agent’s connections and power of persuasion he will entice other Realtors to show your home by highlighting the features of your property to qualified buyers looking to buy a home within the scope of your property.  A real estate agent pre qualifies home buyers and will show homes that are within the price range and type fitting the buyer’s needs.   

If the property is priced at current market level or fare market value, for the next three weeks, there will be a slew of people coming to see your house.   If it’s overpriced you will get fewer and fewer agents interested.  It is part of your agent’s job to know the local market conditions and home values, evaluating their advice as well as the conclusions of your own research and maintaining the price within comparable market will ensure you property has a fair chance in the market. 

A good real estate agent will employ most of the following campaigns to attract a larger number of qualified buyers possible. Some of the marketing campaigns most licensed real estate agents use are fundamental others simply make sense like having professionally taken pictures of the exterior and key interior parts of the property, especially those that highlight the best features.  A picture is worth a thousand words, we all know that… so have it done as soon as your property is in shape!

Signage is a must and direct mail as well as printing advertising is common practice.  In addition to flyers and newspaper ads, open houses particularly will attract agents representing buyers as well as neighbors; yes neighbors will attract their friends and relatives wanting to move into the area.  Well advertised open houses with strategically placed signs around the neighborhood will increase the attendance.

Using new technology by creating e flyers and prepare virtual tours will increase the number of people interested, since the internet has become very popular among possible buyers.

Using all these options will increase the number of visitors and eventually a good offer will be placed on the table for you to accept.
