Listing and selling a home today involves far more than simply putting the listing into MLS and waiting on the phone to ring. I recently went on a listing appointment and the real estate agent the sellers had interviewed prior to me said “All I can do is put your listing into MLS and see what happens”.  True story!  Unbelievable!

In order to survive and thrive in today’s real estate market, it is so important that the agents are utilizing all of the latest trends in technology. All of my homes listed are photographed by a professional photographer and have websites built specifically for that listing, this information is distributed to over 200 websites, not to mention to the 1,000 plus real estate agents in my data base.  The home listed is also featured on all of the top real estate search sites such as Realtor.com, Trulia, Zillow, and so many more.

In addition to this, my listings are featured on You Tube (which is the #2 used search engine on the internet, behind only Google), Facebook, Linked In, and Twitter. You have to spread the word in this social media world we live in and selling your home is no different.
