Spectacular Results! That's what you want! That's what you deserve! That's what you really want, Right?
You want to find the home that's right for you-at the right price. You want to find a home by negotiating the best price, with the least hassle...And You Want Someone Who Can Get The Job Done Right!
Well You've Come To The Right Place!
Will I Sell Your Columbus Indiana Home For Less Commission?
I hear it every day - "I don't want to list my house with a Realtor because
I'll have to pay 6%". You don't think it's fair.
Now for the good stuff!
When you list your Columbus Area house with a typical Realtor you get this:
1) A yard sign
2) Your home listed on the Columbus MLS.
3) A simple ad on Realtor.com with one photo.
Your home advertised in the newspaper and home magazines.
4) Flyers printed and placed in a flyer box.
When you hire Martin Dorgan to Market and SELL your home you get this:
1)Your home is listed in the Columbus MLS with multiple photos taken with a wide angle lens
(believe me, this makes a huge difference in how your photos appear)
2. Your home posted on the first page of all of my personal websites as a featured
listing (I currently have multiple personal websites with lots of internet
exposure, and I'm building more)
3. Your home posted on REALTOR.com as a FEATURED HOME.
This means that your home will appear on the first page of the
#1 real estate site in the world. See below for more information about
REALTOR.com.
4. Your home will have its' own website address:
www.123youraddress.com. Complete with photos, detailed descriptions, set up
showings, request feedback and more. Your yard sign and all advertising will
advertise this domain name so that buyer's can view your house 24/7.
5. Your home will have a beautiful virtual tour posted on all of our sites.
6. A video showcasing your house and neighborhood. Out-of-town buyers really love
this!
7. A yard sign - of course!
Every bit of marketing I do is totally structured around getting your property "SOLD", through
the most exposure in front of the most buyers. I am a Realtor thinking "outside of the box,"
and I believe you will find my marketing approach, refreshing and most of all effective.
Just give me a call and allow me an hour of your time.(812) 603-1368.
I'll even provide you with a complimentary Home Evaluation and CMA (Comprehensive Market Analysis) that will definetely set me apart from the majority of real estate agents in Columbus Indiana. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Visit my website http://www.columbusareahomesforsale/ and see for yourself! Visit my Selling Page http://www.columbusareahomesforsale.com/Selling/page_163206.html and read my "29 Step Strategic Marketing Plan". But be prepared, I do require clients to sign a confidentiality contract, to see my additional Marketing.
A bit of information about REALTOR.com, REALTOR.com is the #1 real estate website in the
world with over 8 million views per month. Every home that goes into the MLS
will automatically get posted on REALTOR.com - Great, right? The bad news is
that if real estate agents do not enhance their listings on REALTOR.com only
one photo will be posted. More bad news is that the homes with only one photo
sink to the bottom of the pile and will probably get viewed less than 10 times
per week.
The great news is that when Martin Dorgan markets your home,
I not only enhance your listings with great looking multiple photos, I advertise
your house as a FEATURED HOME.
This means that your home will instantly rise to the top of the pile and,
show up on the FIRST PAGE of Realtor.com when buyers search for homes in your area.
This benefit is proven to get your home literally THOUSANDS more views,
than the average listing.
So, Will I Sell Your Columbus Indiana Home For Less Commission? Quite Simply! NO!
It's my time, my expertise, and my expenditures that all go into my presentations to you the seller and my networking, that creates a list of qualified buyer's, to bring to you the seller.
Just try asking any professional to reduce their fees, and see what the answer is? Actually, try negotiating the price of gas at the pump? Asking the clerk at the grocery store to reduce the cost of your grocery bill? Or, how about asking a doctor, lawyer or even a mechanic to reduce his fee for services? It's not very likely you will get a response of "Oh sure I'll cut my rate!."
You are paying my fee because I have invested thousands on education, constant upgrading of my expertise through Continuing Education courses, additional learning and specialization courses, marketing techniques, a huge internet presence, and all the incidentals that go along with being an independent contractor. "I work for a fee, not for free"

Columbus Indiana has a Diverse Assortment of Housing Alternatives:
The Urban Columbus areas contain many varieties of style, age, cost and surroundings as alternative choices for a place to live. The current vacancy rate which changes constantly, are 3 - 5% for single family homes, and 4 - 5% for apartments. Columbus has many downtown apartments available in former single family homes. There are approximately 20 apartment complexes across the city, with 1,854 total units. Columbus may be historical but it is a 20th Century city with seven condominium developments.
There are more than 25 rural subdivisions within 6 miles of Columbus. Some of these country subdivisions are served by city water and have sewage treatment plants. There are some horse privledges and facilities available at a few. Some Columbus employees choose to live outside the city limits so they can take advantage of an even broader range of housing, and some just want a little more of country life benefits. As you drive around Columbus you will see many countryside villages within 15 miles of Columbus. And there are 13 towns with population ranging from 250 - 5,000.
Columbus has a strong agricultural tradition, and there are hundreds of farms within 20 miles. Some of these farms range from hobby farms of 10 acres or less, small farms of 50 to 300 acres, and larger farms from 300 to 2,500 acres. Bartholomew County and Columbus has a large selection of small farms or ranches. Farm owner investments range in size and investment of $1,500 to $3,000 per acre cultivated.
Columbus is a historical city, with many older homes ranging from 30 to 100 years old. Several of these homes and areas have undergone restoration and neighborhood improvements. Our downtown has maintained its aesthetic appeal because of improvements, and ever changing and updating. There are major projects either under construction or planned, including the Indigo Hotel which recently opened its doors to travellers.
Columbus has a number of man made lakes, ponds and natural lakes within the city and just on the outskirts of town, and within 10 miles of Columbus. Fifteen of these lakes are the focal point of housing developments. They enhance the natural beauty, add scenic views, create water-sports havens, and are easily accessible.
Columbus cares about its residents, and provides Public Housing and Section 8 accommodations. The Housing Authority of the City of Columbus serves the community and areas within 5 miles. They own and operate three low budget - low rent housing projects. One, specifically for the elderly and disabled. Two other facilities are for low income families. The Columbus Housing Authority has 45 homes diversely spread across the city and throughout the community, to provide housing for families requiring two or three bedroom accommodation. They also provide rental assistance through the Section 8 Voucher program. There are approximately 700 units involved with both programs.
For residents living in Columbus, there is something for everyone. For people looking to relocate the same applies. If you would like additional information about Columbus I would be happy to send you a Newcomers package, filled with all kinds of good information that you will find valuable.

Martin -
My husband and I wanted to send you a quick note to express our thanks for the excellent service you provided in selling in our home. We had it listed with another agency 2 years ago for 6 months without an offer. We were concerned putting it on the market again. We decided to try again with you as the listing agent and Coldwell Banker and received two offers in two weeks! Our home was successfully sold from listing to closing in 6 weeks... in a very challenging market. Thank you for your persistence and professionalism.

To: Martin Dorgan
You're one of the best real estate agents around. You sold our house within 11 days on the market, after another Realtor couldn't sell it when it was listed on the market for several months.
We were pleased with you, having the courtesy of having us as your client and taking the time to sit down and talk to me about our house and wanting to sell the house at a reasonable price.
If it wasn't for you, it might still be on the market.
When I called Coldwell Banker I know now I made the right choice. I would definitely recommend you Martin, to someone who is wanting to buy or sell a house.
Thanks for everything!
