Social Media & Selling Your Home
A recent survey showed that 75% of the peopled surveyed made their last purchase based on influence from social media. That means that they saw a friend purchase, an advertisement or liked a page or read a review. I have a background in advertising and social media. This is a benefit to you as a seller. I am able to put your home in front of buyers often before they even know they want to buy a home. Effectively marketing your home on social media is a key component that sets me apart.
Pricing Your Home Right
Marketing brings people in the door but chances are that your home will sell at its fair market value. Pricing it realistically at the outset simply increases the likelihood for a timely sale with less inconveniences and greater monetary return.
Overpricing causes most homes to remain on the market too long. Buyers, aware of a long exposure period, are often hesitant to make an offer because they fear "something is wrong" with the house. Often homes that are on the market for a long time eventually sell for less than their fair market value.
Pricing your home competitively is one of the best things we can do to get your home sold in a timely manner. I can and will provide you a comparative market analysis of your home. This helps you set a price that will make a good first impression with buyers and get your home sold fast.
