The Power of Virtual Tours and How One Helped Me Sell A Winter Springs Listing

As you might recall, I listed a home in St. Johns Landing in Winter Springs, Florida earlier this year for $750,000. This custom home featured five bedrooms, four and one-half bathrooms, a gourmet kitchen, stunning hardwood floors and a salt-water pool that was showcased in a local pool builder magazine.

Although only in the home for two years, the Sellers decided to move to Pennsylvania for a job opportunity and with seven other homes for sale in the community, knew that they needed an agent who was savvy with Internet marketing and also experienced in the luxury market. Thankfully, they hired me!

As part of my marketing plan, I hired a professional photographer to take pictures and put together the virtual tour. When the tour was complete, I posted it on more than 20 websites. In a few short months, the Sellers had more than 40 showings and three offers.

The offer the Seller accepted was made by Buyers who found the home on one of the websites that I advertise on.  According to Buyers, after seeing the virtual tour and the pictures, this home quickly became first on their list to see when they visited from Colorado. I know this because they (and their Relocation agent) told me personally! I'd say this proves that good pictures and virtual tours are well worth their cost...wouldn't you? 

In less than 30 days from the initial contact from the Buyers, this fine home closed successfully last Friday! It's amazing how quickly Buyers can identify the homes they want to see (and the ones they want to rule out) based on the pictures and virtual tours...which is just one more reason why I provide complimentary virtual tours on every one of my Luxury Home listings!

If you have a luxury home to sell in Seminole County, including Winter Springs, Lake Mary, Longwood, Sanford, Oviedo, Altamonte Springs or Casselberry, I'd welcome the opportunity to share with you how my marketing plan and internet presence can get you the results you want!
