Marketing Plan for your Home

v Prepare and review a Comparative Market Analysis report that will show you the current market value of your home.
v Erect a professional sign with phone numbers that are accessible 24 hours a day.
v Input your listing for complete computer access through the Multiple Listing Service. Your listing will be accessible to anyone visiting REALTOR.CA. Put pictures and an ad up on the office bulletin board and page your listing to our agents.
v Enter your home onto our Internet web page (rightmovebarrie.com and greenrealtor.com) and onto the Re/max site (surfremax.com) professionally designed to bring in as many hits as possible. My partner may also advertise your home on her site.
v Take professional photographs that show your home in its best light. Most buyers shop on the internet. I will make sure your homes looks good.
v Submit copies of your listing to my company’s sales staff for their waiting buyers. Re/Max has maintained over 25% of the market share in Barrie over the past ten years. There are approximately 150 sales representatives at Re/Max Chay and 64,000 Re/Max agents worldwide. Buyers from other areas look for a familiar company name to get information about our market.
v Arrange a tour of your home for the Re/Max sales representatives…providing your home falls within the tour guidelines.
v Network through all of my Real Estate connections to expose your house to more potential buyers. I have sold real estate in Barrie since 1987, so I know most of the realtors well. Some homes will qualify for a virtual tour.
v Develop a full colour, professional feature sheet that describes the special features and benefits of your unique home. Arrange virtual tours on some homes.
v Promote your home and distribute the feature sheets to co-operating salespersons from other firms to use with their buyers while showing your property.
v Suggest and advise you of any changes to your property that you may wish to consider making so that your home becomes even more marketable to the buying public.
v Constantly inform you of any changes in the market and of any sales or listings of comparable properties.
v Hold open houses as arranged. Follow up with all sales people who have shown your house and report back to you within a day.
v Assist in finding financing if required and pre-qualify all prospective buyers when possible. I have had an association with a mortgage broker for many years and receive prompt service from him.
v Arrange home inspections or water tests as required.
v Negotiate the offer…. Help you to understand exactly what is being offered and what your options are.
v Deliver all documentation to the lawyer after the sale and follow up on any loose ends.
Remember our job is to market your home. That is to get as many qualified buyers through your home as possible, from as many sources as possible and to assure you of top price, the best closing, terms and conditions attainable.
