WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT: We include 25 Photos, Descriptive Remarks, and a Virtual Tour.
Note- our MLS allows for 25 photos so we ALWAYS include 25 photos for every REO property.
WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT: For every listing, we take 60-70 high-quality, well-lit, wide-angle photos. We use a high-end digital camera (SLR). We edit the best photos in Photoshop to make sure they are level and color balanced to show buyers your interior and exterior in the best possible light.
We use the best 25 photos for our MLS and these photos get pulled for our REALTOR.com showcase. Postlets and Craigslist use 18 photos and we pick between 25 and 40 photos for the property website and virtual tour. Where a room is wide enough, we also take 3-6 panoramic shots for the virtual tour.
High quality photos are perhaps the most important part of home marketing. According to the National Association of REALTORS (NAR), 82% of all home buyers start their search online.Listings with better photos command higher asking prices. Take a look at this Wall Street Journal article...
WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT: We promote every property with a website that includes all our marketing photos, a map, virtual tour, local links, a downloadable pdf flyer of the property and local lender information.
We place a website rider on the for sale sign to allow passers-by to jot down the dot info website for viewing later.
WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT: We place a website rider on the for sale sign to allow passers-by to jot down the dot info website for viewing later.
We also supply the property with high-quality flyers that features website URL, virtual tour, and our marketing photos.
WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT: We include a virtual tour that includes many photos of the interior, map to property, and property flyer. We convert this virtual tour to a YouTube video that can be downloaded at the property with a smartphone QR-Code reader (see below).
The unbranded version is also linked to our MLS listing.
WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT: We always create a 2-sided, well designed flyer that features our high quality photos, description, link info for property website and virtual tour.
WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT: We maintain a REALTOR.COM enhanced "Showcase" listing account. When a consumer searches on the #1 Real Estate search website, our listing is highlighted in the search results.
The enhanced result is surrounded by a drop shadow, highlighted in orange title bar and includes the "25 Photos" and "Virtual Tour Icon".
Basic listings include limited information and only 4 photos.
REALTOR.com "Enhanced Showcase Listing" costs us about $1,000/year to display our properties this way.
WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT: Our "Showcase" landing page features 25 photos, a link to the virtual tour and more detailed information.
We also conduct regular Open Houses dates and details are also noted on the "Showcase" listing.
WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT: We promote the property with weekly enhanced Craigslist ads that feature lots of detail about the property, 18 photos and open house dates. We've had many agents tell us they new nothing about our property listing but their buyer saw the Craigslist ad. Many of these turned into closed sales.
The basic Craigslist property ads feature limited information and only 4 photos.
WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT: We promote the property through Postlets Pro syndication - another searchable portal for real estate.
The information in a Postlets ad gets pushed out to other searchable real estate website's like HotPads and Google Base. Note that we also include Open House information when we hold an open house.
WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT: We are members of ListHub. ListHub pulls the property feed (and details/photos) from our local MLS and pushes the listing out to over 50 Real Estate websites adding additional exposure to the property listing.
Our listings showing up on real estate website's like GoogleBase, Oodle, HotPads, and others. Consumers use these searchable websites to find properties.
WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT: All our marketing is optimized so that when consumers search on specific area search terms, links to our marketing is returned to the first page of results- most of the time in the first 1-4 spots.
Note: Search words used in Google search at right return our YouTube video, Craigslists ad and the property website.
We've had many agents tell us their buyer found our listing by searching the internet.
WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT: We regularly hold open houses at our listings. We advertise these open houses in our MLS, on REALTOR.com, and all our other marketing like Craigslist and Postlets.
Many of our offers come from these important open house showings.
WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT: Tech-savvy buyers can use their smartphone to scan a QR-Code that is positioned on the property website rider that allows a buyer to view the YouTube video tour of the property.
WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT: We are now creating a YouTube video of all our listings. As noted in the frame above the video can be downloaded via QR-code at the property. The video is also optimized for search engine and the property shows up when consumers search for videos of homes for sale on Google, Bing and Yahoo.
WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT: Consumers in our area can download our iPhone app and drive through neighborhoods and see properties for sale. Note our current assignment is noted on our iPhone app at the right.
In our service area, no one leverages technology like we do.
