Behind the Scenes

While all this activity is happening, we’re also working behind the scenes to make sure your home gets the most exposure so it sells at the best price in a timely manner. We also gather all information necessary to ensure a smooth transaction. To that end, we:

• Immediately send video responses to buyer leads via e-mail and text

• Improve the marketing of any under-performing marketing campaigns by analyzing & viewing

results of campaigns

• Meet weekly with the team to keep on top of each step in the marketing campaign of your home

• Price the property correctly the first time to widen the window of buyer showings
