Mediocre sales again this week which is reflected by the sales to list ratio which came in at almost half the stat from this time last year. Condo and single family home values remained average while the average days on market witnessed growth in both types or property. Lots of interest and inquiries from prospective sellers this week with regards to key factors they should take into consideration when choosing representation in this type of market. The answer is pretty simple, with the right price tag on your home and exposure to potential buyers, your home is bound to sell. Tech saavy clients (the type I usually attract) see the value and future of online presence with the sales associate being less involved with traditional methods to pursue cutting edge marketing campaigns. I have replaced things like newspaper ads and TV spots and opted for more focussed and measurable campaigns like social media and web advertising. Gone is the still picture "virtual tour'' replaced with a descriptive HD video walkthrough. Every time I sit with someone to discuss my marketing strategy, they are amazed at how comprehensive and cutting edge advertising property has become. And the biggest tip of the week which isn't really news to most yet people still keep opting for...YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR! Don't let the stress of selling your home lead you down a road of discount repairs or representation. Professional's may cost you a little more in the short term but are worth their weight in gold in the long run. My new method works...very well! And I'm proving it one sale at a time.
