How We Market Property:
Professionally connected !
Not only will our own sales expertise and advertising resources help sell or rent your home but, as members of the Listing Information NetworK (LINK), a multiple listing type service of approximately 75 member offices and their hundreds of sales affiliates we have the advantage of accessing the databank of all available properties as well as statistics on transfered properties to benefit your reseach in selling or buying; we will gladly make this information available to you, when working with us.
If you are selling your property, we would feature you here; accessable to hundreds of professional salespeople to pass along to their buyers. With Advantage Real Estate representing you, you will be able to take advantage of this huge sales force and thousands of advertising dollars.
As a buyer we would provide you with all available listings meeting your price range and criteria closest; we can also provide you with information enabling you to make a well thought out offer; which we would prepare for you and present to the seller or co-broking seller agent.
We come equipped !
We use the latest technology and tools, both at the office and at home, we've got access to numerous computers, laptops, scanners, copiers, fax, video & digital cameras. We are always accessible to our clients and customers seven days a week.
Seller or Buyer Presentation
Our hand-outs to customers are much more than a one-page sheet; expect to be provided information on the structural components, area map, property boundaries, Association documents, a septic plan or survey; copy of Assessor's card or deed.
A professional grade color flyer is given to all. As a seller you would not be anything but pleased at our effort and, as a buyer you will be assured that you have received every bit of information available to our agent at that time.
OPEN HOUSES, special events
With your agreement, we will host an "Open House" at your home; being one of the few island agencies who conduct them. These events are staged with great thought and have proven to be very effective.
Additionaly once per month a broker open house is scheduled for your area, giving agents a chance to preview your home and report back to their customers. These tours may produce a turn out of 40 to 60 agents in a quick half hour walk-through.
