With 90% of
home buyers using the Internet at some point in their search, and 36% of them
saying that they found the home they purchased on line, it’s not hard to figure
out that your home needs to be easy to find on the internet. Most of those
buyers (80%) also say they want to look at homes with virtual tours.
Where is your
Realtor advertising your home? What media are they using?
The sign in
the front yard used to be the second-most-reported way that buyers found the
home they purchased. (Now it is number three – behind the Realtor and the
Internet.) These days that sign had better have a QR code on it so that someone
driving past can get the “inside scoop” on their smart phone.
Newspapers
and real estate books were of major importance. Today it’s mostly the real
estate offices that are using the Sunday classifieds, but it’s thin. The real
estate books are ghosts of their former selves. And those ads are expensive.
The cost for an individual agent to advertise a home can run $75.00 per week or
more for a one-inch ad. In 2011, the listing ad needs to be on Craig’s List.
Four SeasonsVirtual Tours can help Northwest Indiana sellers and their Realtors get the
best coverage for their listings with high quality tours at affordable prices.
We can also position the tours so that they have the widest internet coverage
possible.
Our virtual
tours and slide shows are high definition, HDR photography that can (and
should) be shown full screen. The tours are interactive so that the viewer can
move through at their own speed and in their own way. They can play on smart
phones and tablets. The virtual tours provide detailed property descriptions,
MLS information, area information and maps. Weekly stat reports let you know
how many people are looking at your listing.
We also offer
an incredibly inexpensive Internet Optimizer Package. It posts your listing on
Craig’s List and updates it weekly for up to a year. The listing is also posted
on Zillow, Trulia, Oodle, Lycos, Hot Pads, Backpage, Vast, Enormo and
other real estate websites; plus
Facebook and YouTube. An eflyer and a QR code are also included in the package.
Don’t let
your home languish in the 20th century. Four Seasons Virtual Tours
can help your Northwest Indiana home (Lake, Porter, LaPorte, Newton and Jasper
counties) be seen by buyers from all over the country and the world.
