As a Kings Beach Seller did you know that more than 92%+ of home buyers will begin their property search on the internet? Now, more than ever your mountain house needs to have the best on-line exposure, presentation, and coverage possible.
On-line marketing is so much more than just entering your property data and a few photos in the Tahoe Sierra Multiple Listing Service (TSMLS).
Internet marketing is far more advanced today. Long gone are the days of only putting in the bare minimum property information data and details along with just a few poor camera photos and then counting on the TSMLS to syndicate that information out to a few mega real estate websites.
As a Seller if your agent is still hoping to get potential buyers to call about your home, with a limited internet profile, you may be very disappointed with the results.
Serious buyers view an on-line listing with limited and/or incomplete information and poor, or no photos, as a being a big negative.
Today’s buyers view poor MLS listings as a property that may have something to hide, or be poorly taken care of – not the impression you will need to get top dollar for your Tahoe home.
Tahoe Seller Tip – Provide as much information and property details as you can on your property. The more information, the better!
Tahoe Seller Tip – On-line Curb Appeal! Pick the best photo as your first photo that will get buyers to click on your home listing to get more information.
You may not have thought about how important your first position photo is to a potential buyer, but the Internet has become your very first showing to home buyers.
It is critical that your first photo have on-line curb appeal and it sends the right message about your property!
Each on-line viewing is your first showing! Every time your home is viewed on-line that Tahoe buyer is making that critical first impression decision on whether or not to have your Kings Beach home on their short list of properties to see when they come to Lake Tahoe.
Unlike other markets, this second home market often has buyers here for only a few hours to see properties. Your on-line presence will impact a buyers “must-see” showing list, which means you need a great internet profile and presentation of your property.
Tahoe Seller Tip – Only use the best photographs to market your Tahoe Property!
To achieve the broadest world-wide Internet marketing exposure and presence, your Kings Beach property needs a combination of a fully completed TSMLS property profile, social media campaign, blogging, and video exposure. Experienced real estate agents that understand a strong on-line marketing plan when combined with other key traditional home marketing strategies can really make a difference in getting the word out about your Kings Beach home for sale.
