My Marketing Plan
 

Here is what I will do to get your home sold! 

Prepare a comparative market analysis of your home with photos of comparable homes for sale, homes that have sold and homes that didn't sell so we can achieve your homes full potential list and sales price. 

Give you a market preparation guide to get your home ready to show and discuss other ways that I see once I tour your property, to stage it for maximum sales price. 

Give you a guide about what happens when so there are no surprises. 

Enter your home in the MLS, Realtor.com and six other partner sites that I subscribe to. 

Take digital photos outside and inside for maximun exposure of your property. 

Put up RE/MAX yard sign and two other sign riders so buyers can get accurate information fast. 

The first rider under the RE/MAX sign with a special 800#. Buyers call and they hear a detailed description of your home with everything but the sales price. All they have to do is punch "0" and they will be conneted to me directly. What if they don't punch "0"? The system calls me! It captures their # and I call back right away. This system lets me speak with the prospect right when their interest is at it's peak, right in front of your property! Very few agents have this technology because it is expensive. This technology has produced several closed buyers since I have had it in the last 6 months!
The second rider is your homes domain name!! It reads www.YourAddress.com. People can go there and get a very detailed discription, where schools are, a map, an arial view, a photo tour and all the room dimentions plus a lot more features! It is a wonderful tool and I have sold homes because of it.  

Enter your home with digital photos on my website at www.barbarahomes.com that will be instantly e-mailed to all the members of my site. Yes, I have people who use my site for information and listings! 

Broadcast e-mail all my buyers on my separate buyers site about your home with photo and all information and directions to the address site. 

Reverse match in MLS for Realtors with buyers who match your home type and price range, and e-mail a flyer to them of your home. 

Make a flyer for your home with photo for agents who show your home to give to their buyers with full print out of your home and all the necessary riders to purchase attached. They can write a purchase offer with all the necessary paper work right easily! 

Make a flyer to give to each agent at the next office meeting and e-mail them the link to the address site. 

Make feature cards and place them around your home so we can highlight all the things we want buyers to notice about your property. 

Let neighbors know home is for sale with a photo flyer of your home(with your permission). 

Set up a tour for agents in the area and agents in my office with a catered lunch that I provide.(with your permission). 

Hold an open house (with your permission). 

E-mail your listing to the top 20 Realtors in the area with a photo of your home and feature sheet. 

In two weeks another CMA will be done so we will know what sold in the area and what has come on the market since you put your home up for sale (if necessary). 

Get feedback from all showings and give you that info as soon as possible. 

Advertise in Chicago Tribune, which has a web site as well as print. 

Advertise in the RE/MAX Magazine with a photo ad. 

I make free presentations and prepare CMAs for prospective home sellers every day. I've literally done hundreds, and I know exactly what puts a big SOLD sign in your front yard. 

I'd love the chance to make a presentation for you. It is totally free and without any obligation. Call me! Or fill out this form and I will get back to you quickly...

Real Estate Tips
Pricing >Price and Condition

Pricing a house is one of the most important parts of the marketing process. You want to get as much for the property as you can, but if you set the price too high, you can turn away qualified buyers. Your real estate agent can tell you the selling price of homes comparable to yours. Pricing strategy depends on market conditions, and it is different in a buyers' market than it is in a sellers' market.

If your home is overpriced, the marketplace will reflect that to you. When a property fails to sell in a reasonable period of time, you and your real estate agent should have a frank discussion to determine whether too high a price tag is the reason. Your real estate agent will also be getting feedback from other agents who have shown your home.

Remember that price is only one factor. Consider ways you can make the property more attractive to show by handling needed repairs, improving curb appeal or making cosmetic improvements. Improve the condition of your home and you will improve its chances of selling.
