The Importance of Internet Marketing
Even if homebuyers don’t know about any other website…they
know about REALTOR.com.
Here are some statistics that you should be aware of if you’re
thinking about selling your Alexandria, Arlington, or Washington DC home. According to a survey conducted
by the National Association of Realtors (NAR) in 2003:
- The most widely cited real estate website used by homebuyers
was REALTOR.com.
- The next most cited web site used by homebuyers was the Multiple
Listing Service (MLS).
- 78% of homebuyers who searched on the Internet purchased their
homes through real estate professionals.
Nearly 70% of all Internet-using home buyers visited a home with
a real estate agent as a result of their use of a real estate
website.
And, in 2003, for the first time ever, Internet advertising surpassed
newspaper advertising in real estate marketing. This means that
on average, it’s more likely that your buyer will find your
home by surfing the web than by using any other advertising medium.

Showcasing On Realtor.com
All of our listings are Featured Homes on
Realtor.com. Featured Homes are displayed first when buyers
start their search on Realtor.com. By standing out at the
top of the search criteria page, buyers will have a direct
link to your home's information and my contact information.
This feature differentiates your home in front of millions
of potential buyers, and attracts targeted home searches to
your property.
All of our listings are Showcased on Realtor.com. By showcasing
your home on Realtor.com we are able to add up to six additional
photos of your home, add a custom headline to the webpage
display, add a virtual tour, and add a custom description
about your home. With this added feature, we are able to provide
your buyers with more information, and descriptively point
out the special features of your home.

Virtual Tours - What's A Listing Without A Virtual Tour?
Here are just some of the things we've heard
buyers tell us directly..."Please don't send me any listings
without photos."..."How can I tell just from the
description if the house is even worth looking at?"..."Why
don't all agents provide multiple photos of homes?"
It just makes sense. Homes with virtual
tours and extra photos are viewed more often than those with
no photo or just one exterior photo. We create virtual tours
for all of our listings. In addition to taking photos of the
interior of your home, we take photos of the neighborhood
and surrounding features as well.

When you’re ready, please contact us for a confidential interview.
Together we will review a marketing plan that includes successfully
showcasing your home on several top real estate websites for local,
national, and global exposure. Keep in mind that the Alexandria, Arlington, and Washington DC areas are very transient. That means that
your buyer could be a few blocks away, or a few states away in the
process of relocating. If they are ready and willing, then we are
able to reach them.
When it’s time for you to sell your Alexandria, Arlington, or Washington DC home, think twice about
the level of service you’d like to receive, and how you’d
like your home to be marketed. A strong Internet presence is a necessary
component in my high-impact marketing strategy.
