How I Sell Your Home
With 87% of homebuyers searching and researching properties online you need to have an agent that has enough online savvy to get your property the exposure and visibility it needs.
Here are a few samples of what I do:
MLXchange
This is the Realtors® Multiple Listing Service and it’s where your property will be exposed to thousands of other Realtors® and their buyers. It’s extremely effective and can often result in offers being made before your property has worked its way on to the public system.
www.realtor.ca
This is the public gateway to all Canadian listing information. Listing your property here ensures maximum exposure for your property as well as accurate information for potential buyers.
www.coldwellbanker.com
The Coldwell Banker® brand is one of the world's premier real estate organizations, with more than 3,600 offices and 111,500 Sales Associates around the world.
www.davidblishen.ca
David’s website contains extensive information for buyers and sellers as well as regularly updated content that potential buyers need.
Listings are also syndicated to other specialist niche websites like www.waterfrontwest.com
Database Marketing
I meet hundreds of potential buyers who not only come in to my office but also through my extensive online channels. I am in constant communication with them about the latest news and developments in Kootenay Lake real estate. It’s highly effective as I am able to make buyers aware of certain properties before they reach the main online channels.
Much of my time is spent with buyers searching and researching properties sometimes a couple of years in advance of them moving here. I am always on the search for properties to fit their particular remit.
Social Media
TWITTER, FACEBOOK, YouTube
My proven approach not only takes in the traditional methods of marketing your home (signage, MLS, email campaigns etc) but also the power of social media marketing (Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Flickr etc). At least let’s call it that for simplicity. In essence it’s about leveraging the power of participative relationship building with individuals, groups and communities with shared interests online.
Markets have become conversations between people delivering information, ideas, and perspectives, all in a very transparent manner.
It has become so powerful that there are those that don’t even refer to it as social media marketing anymore – it’s just marketing.
Do not underestimate it. Take a look at these facts:
Facebook- currently has 400 million active users 50% of which log in on any given day*.
YouTube – is the 2nd largest search engine in the world**
