Marketing Your Home

Once your property is listed for sale:

Below you’ll find a few basic components of my Selling Plan; the bulk of my plan will be presented to you when we meet in person…you won’t be disappointed.

  • A lock box security system will be installed, so that if no one is available you won't miss any showings. A lot of people want to view during the day, and if it's not available, they move on.

  • Your property will be registered with the Victoria MLS® System, to expose your home to over 1200 local Realtors. This is a major marketing advantage for you. Also, your property will be advertised world wide through the Internet at MLS® Online.

  • An MLS® inspection tour will be arranged on a convenient day, to allow other Realtors a chance to see what you are offering. Often times they may already have a buyer in mind.

  • Your property particulars will be broadcast without delay to every Realtor in my office…over 140 in total…this is a terrific tool to generate immediate interest.

  • I use effective advertising in the Times-Colonist, Real Estate Victoria, and newsletter circulars to professionally promote your property. And I know how to handle the calls when they come in, so buyers don't just 'drive by.'

  • Further, your property will be exposed to hundreds of past clients and to others that I regularly network with. These are contacts that like to be kept up to date, and are a large source of referral business. I spend hours each week promoting my listings this way.

  • Regular, professional open houses will be conducted at your convenience, to expose your home to even more potential buyers.

  • I book all the appointments, on your schedule, and handle all the other Agents, so you don't have to. Also, I will follow up and record the results of all showings, including showings by other firms. You will be contacted within 24 hours of each showing with a full report.

  • I am available all day with a 24 hr. phone service, cell phone, pager, fax machine, and wireless lap top computer. This is a big advantage for you, because if a buyer calls and no one answers, or there's a machine, they simply go elsewhere.

  • I will sort out all prospects, concentrating on those who are serious and who qualify. You don't want a whole group of unqualified strangers roaming around your house.

  • I will help buyers decide to take action on your home. I know what it takes to get them to make a decision. And I will be negotiating on your behalf. You won't lose a buyer just because the first offer was low.
