Sellers: Besides positioning your listing prominently on this website and on local, regional, national and global REMAX websites (as well as on realtor.ca), your property will have its own url (internet address, such as 78Brentwood.com, in the case of our current/recent listing, 78 Brentwood Drive, Guelph) which will help market it directly to buyers via a hub webpage in support of the listing, and otherwise increase the property's presence online.
Digital/online marketing is a distinctive competence I've been practicing and honing along with the technological advances that enable new and interesting ways & means of communicating to the diverse and demanding online citizen and consumer. This has never been more useful to my clients than during the COVID-19 Era; coupled with our Best Practices & Methods approach, based on extensive - and continuing - research into what has worked / is working - and what has not worked / is not working - in real estate & related sectors in Europe, where many regions began to ease restrictions and start re-opening broader sectors of their economies, 4 to 6 weeks before we did here in Ontario.
All of the 'normal' MUST-DOs are still MUST-DOs: 'curator' level staging if & as required - at reasonable rates from a variety of sources which we'll discuss, possibly request & review costed proposals from two or more services in situations where large-scale / entire-house and/or multiple-unit staging is required. There are a growing number of excellent & affordable such services based in Guelph and throughout the other areas in which I specialize: Centre Wellington and KW-Cambridge, the Tri-Cities. Once I have a good sense of the home and property, we can select a short list and request costed options for your consideration. Usually, I find it comes down to creating a shared sense of how to best 'style' a project, whether it be a condo-flip or Ward-Reno-And-Sell for an investment property client, a model home for a small in-fill development or a country retreat in Minto, with a renovated old farm house and multiple outbuildings - a shared passion for creating the maximum demand to participate in the battle to buy your property.
The Professional Photographer / iGuide Producer I work with consistently delivers interactive virtual tours complete with floor plans as well as intuitive tools and useful widgets - such as the ability for prosptective buyers to measure a particular wall to check if a favourite print would fit. There are, in total, more than a dozen distinct elements to my COVID-19 Best Practices & Methods - please contact me via SteveDawkins@REMAX.net at anytime to initiate a no-obligation conversation via phone or Zoom - or best if possible, in-person, physically distanced.
Pomoting and then hosting an interactive LIVE one-hour ViRTUAL OPEN HOUSE on Facebook a day or two after listing day, and then editing and repurposing the recorded footage in whole and parts as subject-specific segments is another element of my COVID-19 Era Best Practices & Methods full-service package for Sellers. I don't cost any more, but I believe I will make you more money - as my Job#2. Job#1 is the Health & Safety of everyone involved in the transaction - from you and your family, and of the small team of specialists who will come together for their part(s) of the project and their families back in their homes, as well as the prospective buyers and their Realtors who - after being enticed to a in-person showing - I owe an equal degree of care, to ensure they're both protected by my rigorous COVID-19 Protocols as well as doing my utmost to encourage, faciiltate and ensure that they comport themselves likewise while in your home and on your property.
Leading the process of creating that demand and having everything in place to enable its conversion to a successful sale which has maximized my Seler's net proceeds - that's what I do for my Clients, and its more than a job, gig or business to me. It's extremely rewarding - especially during such an epic sh*t show that we are all both starring in and staring at - to be able to help ensure that something as important as the successful sale of one's biggest and most asset goes not only successfully but also with as little ADDITONAL stress & disruption to normal personal and family routines throughout the entire process.
In short, my proven methods will maximize your net proceeds in the minimium time and it will be a positive, relatively low-stress process! If that sounds like the kind of character you might like to kick the tires on, contact me anytime for a no-obligation meeting in your home, my office, via zoom or phone. (Testimonials)
