Internet Marketing. Why so important to have your home sold for top dollar

Hi, Brad Sinclair from Flat Rate Realty. I created this blog to talk to you about internet marketing. Today over 95% of home buyers are starting their home search online. To get maximum exposure for your home, you must have a huge presence on the internet. You must be advertised very heavily in your local market as well as a national and global level too. But keep in mind, it is not just about being blasted all over the internet, but it’s how you are advertised as well. To make sure your internet advertising is effective and you are not losing any opportunities, you must have amazing professional photography. We will first work with you to ensure your home is prepped to show at it’s best, then we will bring in our professional photographer and then we place your home on every major national and global real estate website. We advertise in over 80 Countries and on over 2000 websites. We take every necessary step to ensure we do not miss any opportunities. For a 100% no obligation, no hassle and absolutely no pressure listing interview contact us anytime and we would love the opportunity to interview for the job! Thank you and have an amazing day!

Listing Photos. Why are they so important?

Hi Brad Sinclair here with Flat Rate Realty. I created this blog to talk about photos. In my opinion this is one of the most important pieces when listing your home. Over 90% of your marketing materials will include your property photos. It is important to know that over 95% of home buyers are currently finding their homes on the internet and when they are looking on the internet they are eliminating homes “this one does not work, this one does not work” and so on, we need to make sure that does not happen and your home stands out. Today, photos are now our first impression so it is crucial we nail it, you can’t afford to miss this step. Most Realtors today are busting out their IPhone or cheap digital camera which is a HUGE mistake. You cannot show your home off properly this way. You must utilize professional photography and the truth is, with the average Realtor selling less than 6 homes a year they just cannot afford to market your home properly. Professional photography (which I am) and proper marketing is expensive, however it will make thousands of dollars of a difference on how much you can sell your home for. This is why I utilize the best photography equipment and we also spend a lot of time with you making sure your home is prepped correctly before we take photos. Again, photos are a buyers first impression so it is crucial to make sure we nail this step. For a 100% no obligation, no hassle and absolutely no pressure listing interview contact us anytime and we would love the opportunity to interview for the job! Thank you and have an amazing day!

Never, Ever, Choose A Realtor On Price that they say your listing price should be

Hi Brad Sinclair here with Flat Rate Reatly, I wanted to create a quick blog to talk about the number one mistake homeowners make when choosing a Realtor to sell their home. The number one mistake is choosing a Realtor based on the listing price. This is a huge mistake. Your only deciding factor on who you should list your home with should be their market plan of action to get your home exposed to the most buyers. We have a very intensive, detailed, aggressive and effective 48 point marketing strategy to get your home sold. I always tell all my potential home sellers when I am presenting a market valuation report that I will give you my professional recommendation however you are the home owner, you are the boss, I work for you, you choose the price. My job is to aggressively market your home harder than any other Realtor out there along with negotiating and fighting for you to ensure you get the highest possible price for your home. So again, never choose a Realtor based on their recommended list price. Make sure they show you their exact marketing strategy, proofs, copies, samples, ask what their exact plan of action is to get your home sold and make your decision based on that. We have about a one hour in depth presentation we do while on our listing interview that lays out exactly what we do, what you can expect and why we are the best real estate team for you. For a 100% no obligation, no hassle and absolutely no pressure listing interview contact us anytime and we would love the opportunity to interview for the job! Thank you and have an amazing day! (did I mention that I charge an amazing, aggressive commission rate of 3.75%?!!)
