Your Marketing Plan Will Sell Your Property

In excess of one million pages per month are being viewed on our website.  If you do a good job of pricing your property and uploading your listing (with photos), you'll get your share of hits on our site.  However, there are things you can do to enhance the value of your listing with us. 

Your Marketing Plan

1)  First, be certain that you have made a realistic valuation of the asking price of your property.  Slightly overpriced properties will sell in a "hot" real estate market.  In a "slow" market, one must be very careful about pricing.  (See our article at http://www.fsboamerica.org/Whats-My-Home-Worth.cfm if you need help with this.)

2)  It is wise to include the entire 15 photos that you are allowed in your listing.   Buyers love photos, so use as many as possible.  Interior.  Exterior.  Close ups of any special architectual details.  Your deck or pool.  A pretty view.

3)  Buy and install a FSBOAmerica.org FOR SALE BY OWNER sign personalized with your phone number and your property's web address in front of your property.  (After you have purchased the sign, forward the confirmation to us, and we will credit your next $25 monthly listing charge back to your credit card thereby giving you a second month's FREE listing.

4)  Also buy and place "lead-in" signs with arrows at each turning to direct traffic from the nearest high traffic street to your home.

5)  Prepare brochures and place them in brochure holders in front of your property.  Keep your brochure box supplied with brochures.  (You can make your brochures by printing your listing on our website.)

6)  Place frequent classified ads in your local newspaper containing wording substantially like, "Photos/info @ www.fsboa.org/000000."  (Replace the 0's with your MLS ID number.)

7)  Change the greeting on your answering machine to something substantially similar to, "Hughes residence.  We can't take your call just now, but please leave us a message, and, if you've called about the house, you can see pictures at www.fsboa.org/000000."  (Replace the 0's with your MLS ID number.)

If you market this way, you'll get much better results than if you do only one or two things.  Also, you'll be eligible for a FREE HIT COUNTER on your listing.
