Marketing Your Home
One of the most important steps is to get your home in front of every potential customer who might consider it as an option in their home search.
This methodology has changed over the years, from newspaper ads to home buyer magazines to the internet. Interestingly, the internet gives us the most flexibility and most options as over 90% of our buyers are shopping online.
But most agents simply put your home on the MLS and wait for a buyer. Not so here . . . we create landing pages for each home complete with a virtual tour, community information, financing information, and much more. When a buyer is searching for a home, voila! Yours will be showcased in its best possible light! Your home will have its own web page as part of the entire REMAX.com network, backed by a $50 million annual advertising budget that drives traffic to REMAX.com . . . and your home!
