The Secret To Selling? Using an Agent To Get Your House Noticed

The Secret To Selling? Using an Agent To Get Your House Noticed

The Secret To Selling? Using an Agent To Get Your House Noticed Simplifying The Market

In a recent survey, the National Association of Realtors (NAR) asked sellers what they want most from a real estate agent. The number one answer was to help market their house.

It makes sense. The way your agent markets your house can be the difference between whether or not it stands out and gets attention from buyers. That’s why it’s so important to work with an expert local agent that knows what they’re doing.

According to that same report from NAR, here are some of the most common methods real estate agents use to market homes, and how you benefit when your agent uses them effectively (see graph below):

  • Listing on the MLS – Real estate agents have access to the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) database. And that’s great for you because having your house on the MLS helps it get more visibility from other agents and buyers. And the more people who see it, the more likely it is to sell.
  • Using a Yard Sign – A yard sign may seem simple, but it’s one of the best ways to catch the attention of people driving or walking by. And when it does, they’ll help spread the word to friends and family who are looking to buy that there’s a house for sale in the area. It also puts your agent’s contact information on display, making it easy for interested buyers to get in touch.
  • Having an Open House – An open house is a great way to create a sense of competition and urgency among buyers – and that can lead to stronger offers. And since you’ll only need to leave once for many buyers to visit, it makes the process easier for you, too. Plus, an open house helps your agent get real-time feedback about what buyers love and what they’re not as sold on.
  • Showcasing on Your Agent’s Website – Having your house on your agent’s website presents it in a professional way to buyers. And odds are, people visiting your agent’s website are serious and ready to make a move, so this is a smart way to get in front of motivated buyers.
  • Social Networking – Posting your house on social helps get your house in front of buyers who may not have seen it with traditional marketing. It also makes it easy for people to share your listing with friends and loved ones.
  • Providing Virtual Tours – For buyers who are relocating from out of town, virtual tours allow them to check out your house anytime from wherever they are. This helps reach more potential buyers who may not be able to come to see your house in person.
  • Using Video – Video is an excellent way for your agent to show off some of the top features of your house like your kitchen, large closets, outdoor entertainment areas, and other key details that could attract buyers.
  • Sending Emails – Sending out information about your house to your agent’s expansive database is another way they’ll get it in front of even more people. Great agents may even send emails teasing that your house is coming to the market as a way to boost interest and excitement before it officially has an open house. 

Here’s what it comes down to. Most good agents will write a description of your house for the listing and pair it with high-quality photos. But a great agent will do so much more than that.

They’ll not only lean on their expertise, they’ll put in the time and effort to make sure your house makes an impression on buyers, and ultimately, sells.

Bottom Line

As a seller, working with a creative local real estate agent is a smart way to ensure your house grabs the attention of the right buyers. If you’re ready to sell and want to talk about strategies we can use to get your house sold, reach out to an agent.

  • Zillow 5 Star Review  This is the second property that I've bought leveraging Jenn's real estate prowls! I literally contacted Jenn at 9PM at night when I saw a listing on the market in... read more the specific neighborhood we were looking at and she managed to squeeze me into her schedule to view the house the next day. I had an offer prepared that night and was already in a bidding war! Jenn helped me to craft a competitive offer and when I snoozed on my counteroffer in time, she helped convince the seller to make me the formal backup offer. It worked out because we ended up going under contract! You would think it would be smooth sailing from there but we hit several roadblocks during the inspection period and Jenn was a google master trying to find experts to advise us for each issue we uncovered. When our appraisal came in significantly less than we felt should be the right value, she gave me different strategic advise for how to move forward. In the end we were able to close on the house that my husband and I are in LOVE with just in the nix of time before welcoming our first baby. While this was my experience with buying this specific home, the reason I continue to use Jenn is because she is a bubbly personality, super professional, and makes herself available to help her clients achieve their goal (whether selling or buying). If you want an agent that is fighting for a house as if it was her own...than Jenn is your gal. If you want an agent that will entertain all of your questions, no matter how stupid....than Jenn is your gal. If you want an agent that will give you 200% when you're giving 100%...than Jenn is your gal. If you are looking for an agent to sell or buy a home, please do not look further than Jenn. I've used her, my friend has used her, and my cousin has used her....clearly it goes to show that we are all fans and she has managed to help each of us find our dream home. I already plan on using Jenn to sell my condo!

She was there during the walkthrough to help point out the imperfections that needed to be corrected. She was at closing to review the paperwork and explain exactly what I was signing.
