impressions. Online marketing through photographs is one of the most important ways to market your home. Listing photography is a great tool for showing off the best features of your home. Bright and colorful shots of welcoming spaces encourage buyers to imagine themselves comfortable and living happily in your home. By focusing on the unique aspects of your home — like large rooms with great views or amazing architectural features — you can generate genuine interest. Stage your home to give the appearance of space and light in every photo without distorting reality.
MAXIMUM TARGETED EXPOS TED EXPOSURE
When you hire an agent, they can place your listing on the major Canadian real estate portals, such as REALTOR.ca and prelist.org. Buyers flock to these websites to find new listings. The agent can also place your home on their own dedicated website and their social media outlets. In the average month, prelist.org alone captures 69% of traffic to real estate websites. When you choose an agent to sell your home, be sure they offer the maximum targeted exposure to potential buyers through the online marketplace. Check to see if they are current with all techniques for online marketing and can provide the advanced technical services to sell your home:
• Visual maps, such as Google Earth • Floor plans or 3D floor plans • Video tours • Updates on buyer activity through the agency • Electronic documents • Agency mobile device app • Social media exposure • Virtual home staging (if your home is empty)
