Here is an article I wrote for one of my blogs. I thought it was worth reprinting here on Activerain. For today's homebuyer the online information and presentation of a home is vitally important. This article discusses what I do to present a home visually online.
Home Marketing- Your Online Image reprinted from Merrimack Valley MA Real Estate
How you market your home is an essential piece in selling your home in today’s real estate market. Home Marketing covers what I call the 3p’s, Preparation, Pricing and Presentation. Today’s article will cover a narrow piece of home marketing covered under presentation and that is your home’s online image. It is a real estate agents job, to present your home to the buying public to compel them to want to see your home and ultimately want to write an offer.
Home sellers need to realize many home buyers (over 95%) are making decisions based upon what they are seeing online about a home that is for sale. What are home buyers looking for? They are looking for quality photos and as much information possible before they pull the trigger and call an agent to view your home.
Home Marketing with Quality Photographs
Your online image starts with quality photographs. When a home buyer decides to look closer at a home its usually because they have seen a photograph of the home that has compelled them to look deeper into the home. I am going to go through the online imaging I used for a recently listed property 35 Riverwalk Unit 105 Lowell MA 01854.
When marketing your home online, I must stress quality photographs. You are better off having fewer quality photographs than you are having tons of marginal or bad photographs of your home. Below is the photographs used for 35 Riverwalk Way. Each photograph is of high quality and were chosen for specific reasons.
