There are many Marketing Questions to Ask the Real Estate Agent Who Is Offering to List Your Property for Sale. With almost 90% of property buyers searching online for real estate, you'll likely be best served by an agent who understands modern Real Estate web marketing techniques.
• Are you using a professional photographer to capture the best photos of my property?
o How many photos of my home do you intend to post on the web?
• Do you post to Craig’s List, Castanet and Kijiji? Will your ads divert that traffic to more effective website?
o How often will you repost
• Do you use Facebook ad impressions? How will they be targeted?
• Which keywords will you target as part of the Google adwords and/or Bing campaigns will you run for the property?
• Will you post my property to your blog and update your readership at least twice/month with updates etc?
• Can I see the MLS description you plan to write for the property before it is posted? Is it written by a professional copy writer?
• Are you willing to notify the 10 agents who have the most recent sales on properties closest to my property about the listing?
• Which social networks will your blog posts about my listing syndicate to? How many total people do you have on your friends/fans/followers lists?
• Will I be able to access web tracking for the various sites where my listing appears? Can you set me up to be able to view these visitors in real time?
• Can I send your presentation online to my address book of contacts?
• Are you willing to provide a Satisfaction Guarantee
Agents are often chosen solely on the recommendation of a friend or maybe an ad in the newspaper. But choosing the right agent can save you time, effort and aggravation. No matter the source if the agent does not have a marketing plan or does not have a strong grip of real estate marketing in today’s world of tech savvy buyers, how will this agent ensure that your home gets into the hands of as many buyers as possible? Exposure is Key.
