studies show that 93% of buyers use online tools to shop for homes before contacting a real estate agent. They peruse the web, find homes that appeal to them, and then contact an agent. Beautiful, engaging interior and exterior photos make the best first impressions. Video walkthroughs and drone videos are major pluses. Online marketing through photographs is one of the most important ways to get your home noticed. Listing photography is a great tool for showcasing your home's best features. Bright and colorful shots of welcoming spaces encourage buyers to imagine themselves comfortably living in your home. Focusing on the unique aspects of your home—like large rooms with great views or amazing architectural features—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 all major real estate portals, such as Zillow and Realtor.com, as well as the local MLS. Buyers flock to these websites to find new listings. The agent can also place your home on their dedicated website and their social media outlets. In the average month, Zillow alone captures 29% of traffic to real estate websites. When you choose an agent to sell your home, make sure they offer the maximum targeted exposure to potential buyers through the online marketplace.
