Would you be interested in seeing this home? Or, does this have more drive-up appeal?
Are you considering selling your home? Has it been a while since you were in the market? Like technology, real estate has likely evolved since the last time you sold a home. Take a moment to review the “PICTURE THIS tips” posted by Judy Switzer & Associates, realtors in Dallas, TX.
If you are interviewing North Texas realtors for the job, it is important to know the right questions to ask prospective agents. The National Association of Realtors (NAR) and the Texas Association of Realtors (TAR) tell us that over 85% of homebuyers begin their search on the internet. Digital technology has made it easier and much more cost effective to market a seller’s home on the internet, than to use traditional print media. Savvy buyers prefer internet search engines to daily newspapers or real estate magazines, because with the click of a button, in the comfort of their own homes, they can literally virtually tour a home.
Because of this phenomenon, it is imperative to hire a listing agent who understands the power of the picture. You have one set of pictures to lure the buyer into calling an agent and requesting a showing. If I had a dollar for every time a buyer told me they either didn’t like the pictures, or they thought something was probably wrong with the listing, because the agent had only put one or two photos on the internet, I would have retired by now. Unfortunately, a seller never hears this kind of info.
Take a look at two different pictures of the same home in the prestigious Preston Bend subdivision of North Dallas. This home was on the market using the first photo and was unsuccessful selling. When I put the home on the market with the second photo along with a large assortment of interior and other exterior still shots, and a visual tour, it sold in just 24 days.
Judy Switzer & Associates takes great pride in its photographic capability. Using professional camera and equipment, Judy insists on perfect lighting and staging, and pushes the listing pictures out to over two hundred websites. If you want to ensure getting the highest price, in the shortest amount of time, with the least inconvenience to you, hire Judy Switzer & Associates……….every move you make!
