As you know, 90% of home buyers use the Internet to search for their future homes. This means that real estate agents, like yourself, have to market your properties online more than ever. This may seem a bit scary, but the following tips will help you learn how to stand out when marketing your properties online and maximize your listing’s potential.
Property descriptions provide helpful information about the listing aside from the basic details. But you don’t want it to be the same old boring description all the time – you want it to jump off the page and grab the buyer’s attention. A great tactic to achieve this is appealing to the buyer’s emotions. Why do potential buyers want this home? What makes it so great? Does it have any great features other homes don’t have?
Staging a home might not seem like an online marketing tactic, but in today’s real estate market how your listing looks online is the modern equivalent of “curb appeal.” A professional home stager can provide you with a consultation to help you prepare a home for sale and make sure your listing shows at its best online.

An easy way to stand out online is through great quality images. But, as a real estate agent, your time is better spent drumming up new listings and growing your business than struggling to take professional-looking photographs. Hire a professional photographer to take at least 25 images to show off the property, but consider having more images taken depending on the property size.
