Marketing Your Tulsa Home to Bring in the Buyers
The importance of marketing your Tulsa home to attract the most qualified and interested buyers can’t be overstated. We start by analyzing market data, recent sales, and comparable properties to help you determine the optimal listing price. Then I help you prepare your home for sale with an eye on both your home’s unique features and competitive homes on the market, including decluttering, cleaning, and staging inside and out to create an inviting atmosphere for potential buyers.
When it’s time to put your home on the market, my goal is to make your home stand out from the competition. Our goal in marketing your Tulsa home is to sell your home quickly and for the best price by bringing in the most qualified buyers.
The Importance of Professional Photography in Marketing Your Tulsa Home
High-quality photographs and virtual tours will showcase your property’s interior and exterior. Sometimes I use virtual staging, especially in vacant homes, to show potential buyers how a space could be used.
Property Listing
I write a compelling and detailed listing description for the property, highlighting its unique features, amenities, and selling points. I check and double-check the property’s specifications, such as square footage, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, and document any recent renovations or upgrades.
Multiple Listing Service
When it’s time to sell, I enter the photographs and property details into the Northeast Oklahoma (NORES), the MLS for the Greater Tulsa Association of Realtors, the database accessible to all participating licensed real estate agents in the area. NORES automatically feeds listings into Zillow, Realtor.com, and all participating brokerage websites.
Using Social Media For Marketing Your Tulsa Home
Custom posts on my blog and advertising on social media sites like Facebook and Instagram will attract local buyers and people thinking about moving to the area. These posts are a unique way to engage people outside the format of the traditional real estate website. We link to our info-filled community pages to tell the story about living in your neighborhood and what it would be like to live in your home.
Agent Showings Are Essential For Marketing Your Tulsa Home
From the first day of the listing, agents will show the property to their interested buyers. The first showing of a home is when potential owners get that gut feeling of “we could live here”. Second and third showings are usually for deciding to buy a particular home or eliminating it from the shortlist. Agents with out-of-area buyers may do virtual showings, using Facetime, Zoom, or another video streaming app. The agent walks through the property, showing views of all the rooms and answering questions.
Communication and Follow-Up
I communicate regularly with potential buyers and agents, provide updates on the property’s status, answer inquiries promptly, and follow up after showings to gauge interest and address any concerns or questions.
