Why Sell With Us?
To help you sell your home quickly, our agents use a proven marketing plan to attract the most ready and willing buyers for your home. Our goal is to maximize your home’s exposure in the real estate market.
Our Marketing Plan
Advertising
Our firm is a regular advertiser in the local real estate publications; The News Leader’s Sunday classified section, The News Leader’s Spotlight on Real Estate, The News Virginian’s Showcase, and The Real Estate Preview.
Internet
Along with traditional print publications, we will use our website, www.1stchoiceva.com, to market your property on the internet. Your home will also appear on all of the major home search sites like
REALTOR.com, Zillow, and Trulia.
Color Brochure
We will provide a personally designed brochure for your property. Each brochure is two-sided. The front of the brochure will feature property photos and highlights. The back of the brochure will feature the MLS printout with additional property information.
Brochure Box
Your listing agent will provide a plastic sleeve or brochure box to attach to the “for sale” sign so that potential buyers can obtain information.
Virtual Tour
The virtual tour will be showcased on the 1st Choice Real Estate company website and the listing agent’s website. Copies of the virtual tour will also be available on CD for potential buyers to take with them. Virtual tours are a great way to impart understanding of the layout and highlight the details of your property
Multiple Listing Service
Upon listing your property, we will submit your information into the MLS system which allows other Realtors® to show your property to potential buyers.
Realtor Open House
Typically held on Tuesdays, this provides an opportunity for Realtors® of other firms to preview your property.
Public Open House
Your listing agent will host public open houses from time to time to allow the public to view your property. These open houses are generally held on Sundays from 1:00-3:00 p.m.
Signage
We will place a 1st Choice Real Estate “For Sale” sign on your property to create additional exposure for potential buyers.
Weekly Contact
We will arrange showings with other agents, record all the showings for your property, and provide you with feedback.
Other levels of service offer additional marketing strategies such as home staging, home inspection, cleaning or other services that may enhance the sale of your property. Ask your 1st Choice agent to discuss these plans with you in greater detail.
