We will use comparable sold and active listings in your area of Jacksonville to help you calculate the fair market value of your home. We do this research ourselves and send you the results through e-mail.
Did you know most agents (Not their companies) are responsible for your homes marketing? Choosing the right agent could mean the difference between having your home for sale or having it sold. No amount of salesmanship will get your home sold if no one knows
your home is for sale. Here is a detailed list of our first month marketing campaign, we can do more than this at your request, but we will never do less.
MARKETING PLAN FOR NORTHEAST FLORIDA HOME SELLERS
WEEK 1:
MULTIPLE LISTING SERVICE INSERTION: Putting your home in the “MLS” gives every Realtor in Jacksonville information on your home. There are over 6,000 Realtors in Jacksonville! Our MLS dues total close to $2,500 annually
FLYERS/SIGN/LOCKBOX: Professionally designed flyers will be available to those who enter your home, our sign comes with three different phone numbers we can be reached at, we do not want a prospective buyer to call and be discouraged. Our new lock-box system is state of the art, we have a electronic record of every agent that enters your home. This gives agents accountability and lets’ us protect your home. The electronic lockbox system is designed by GE and uses state of the art technology. The flyers are relatively inexpensive to produce, our signs run close to $100 a piece, and each lock-box costs about $95
1-800 Number Recently we added a top of the line 1-800 call capture line for each home we sell. This system will allow prospective buyers three different ways to get information on your home. They can listen to a prerecorded message, receive an e-mail with info. or be sent a text message with more information about the home. What really makes the system great is once a prospective buyer calls, we are immediately sent a notification to our cell phones and e-mail with the prospects phone number and time of call. We then promptly call the prospect and try to give them more information to entice them into seeing the home. To our knowledge this system is far superior to any other system being used in Jacksonville by other agents. $200-300 Monthly.
PICTURES/VIRTUAL TOUR: We take over a dozen pictures of your home to give internet buyers a real feel for your home. Virtual tours are ordered on a case by case basis. A good virtual tour costs about $100
INTERNET MARKETING BEGINS: We advertise heavily on the internet. Over 83% of buyers begin their search on ther. We currently have three websites we operate www.homes-jacksonville.com (receives 14,000 unique visitors a month) www.casas-jacksonville.com is a mirror of homes-jacksonville translated into Spanish by Rosa Broxson and www.waterfrontofjacksonville.com that in strictly for those buyers and sellers of waterfront properties. If you are trying to sell a condo in Jacksonville your unit will be featured on www.condosofjacksonville.com in addition for condo sellers, many times we will make a unique site for the complex (call 904-716-3387 with any questions) for an example visit www.condosatcolonialpoint.com
Your home is also advertised on www.remax.com (remax.com is currently the third most visited real estate website in the US,and THE MOST VISITED REAL ESTATE WEBSITE IN THE WORLD!, your home gets maximum exposure on this site, being the first to pop up with your criteria, we can't explain how big this is for sellers!!!) www.realtor.com and www.homes.com www.realestate.com These sites are some of the most searched real estate sites on the internet today. Your home will literally be linked to thousands of others including www.homesandland.com www.realestatebook.com www.bobvilla.com www.homesandgarden.com and
www.jacksonville.com www.realetate.jacksonville.com Our two sites costs about $250 monthly, and you home is featured on www.remax.com
DATABASE NOTIFIED: Our e-mail database is over a thousand strong, your home will be sent to that database in the form of an electronic flyer. Last year we sold two of our new listings to our electronic database. This is free but takes time
REALTORS NOTIFIED: Our RE/MAX Specialists office sells more homes than any other single office in Northeast Florida!, we let our fellow agents know about your home. Many times they might know of a buyer who would like to see your home. We also have an exclusive new e-mail network to involve Realtors from around your area, to notify them of your home. Believe it or not this is unique!
WEEK 2:
OPEN HOUSE IF DEEMED NECESSARY: Our team has mixed feelings on open houses, while we want to find a buyer for your home, we also want to make your home secure. Open houses allow anyone to walk into your home. This is part of why you hire a Realtor, to make sure the person interested in your home can afford to buy it. Please contact our team or ask us about our open house policy
MORE INTERNET MARKETING: Our team spends over a thousand dollars a month marketing on www.google.com and www.yahoo.com We tweak these in week two to get more people to view your home online. Also, your homes website www.12324yourstreet.com will have it's own google keywords, including neighborhoods, and so forth. We set a $3.00 a day budget per home, and around a .49-.79 per click setting. This really works for our sellers, and we are not aware of anyone doing anything that is close to this.
WEEK 3:
POST CARDS: For every home we market we send a minimum of 100 cards to your neighbors letting them know the price of your home. Many times we also send cards to "move up buyers" close to your home. (Ask any member of our team for more of an explanation if you would like) It takes up to week three to get the cards even though we order them in week 1. The cards and the mailing costs about $100
PRINT ADVERTISING: Our team advertises in the Homes and Land Magazine. This real estate based magazine is available in almost every gas station and grocery store in Jacksonville. Our ad is located prominently on page nine,your home will be included on this page in the first edition available. Homes and Land advertises heavily on the internet giving your home more exposure and also has magazines in many other markets. This page costs our team $680 dollars a month.
MORE INTERNET MARKETING: Sites like www.craigslist.com www.jacksonville.backpage.com www.finalhunt.com www.goduru.com www.zillow.com www.reaffinity.com jacksonville.kijiji.com and many others provide information to unique home buyers. Again we are trying to target every potential buyer. Many list sites are completely free but do take lots of time.
WEEK 4:
INSERTION INTO NEWSLETTER: We send our monthly newsletter to over a thousand past clients and the neighborhoods in which we have homes for sale. The cost on this varies between $300-$500 monthly.
After the first month we repeat many of these steps and on many occasions make additions to this plan. This is the bare minimum of what our team does marketing your home for the first month.
THIS IS HUGE FOR SELLERS
Let us showcase your home!
The recent National Association of Realtor survey showed 80% of buyers
found their home from driving past properties in a neighborhood!
Our marketing plan for your home will include a custom website
dedicated to selling your home, and a web site address on the For Sale
sign that clearly tells people how to find it!
Maximum exposure to all drive-by traffic!
Buyers can view the details of your home anytime, night or day!
Easy to remember web site name (yourstreetaddress.com)
Your home will never be without a brochure!
Your home’s custom website will have:
A dedicated web address - For an example go to www.724sprucepine.com
Lots of details, photos and information
Links to local schools, neighborhood information and more
Printable brochure
The fastest way for buyers to find your home online.
Your home will stand out from the crowd with a dedicated
website, just for your property!
This is a new system for us and to our knowledge we are the only team in Jacksonville, using this great marketing tool!
V.I.P BUYER PROGRAM!
Beat other prospective buyers by being the first to automatically receive personalized MLS listings by e-mail. We will search the local MLS and find the homes that match your criteria and notify you immediately by e-mail with the latest listing information!! This program is completely free and with no obligation. It is the quickest way to stop searching for a home and let your new home come to you.Simply choose "Buy A Home" and fill in the requested information.
PLAN OF ATTACK FOR BUYERS
Step 1: Get pre-approved!!!
If you are even dreaming about buying a new home, you need to speak with a lender. Our suggestion is to talk to three different lenders, a local lender, national lender and a mortgage broker. Ask for a pre-approval letter and a good faith estimate on that amount. This should include monthly payments and closing costs. Each lender will vary on their costs, shop around, and then shop around some more. This step is just as or maybe more important for most buyers than finding the right house. DO NOT LET ANYONE CHARGE YOU FOR THIS SERVICE!
Lenders we like:
Pam Vanscoy, mortgage broker Suntrust Mortgage : 904-287-0889, mtgbkr4u@aol.com Pam Has worked with our family team for many years and to our knowledge has never had an buyer have an unexpected cost at closing, also she attends the closing (This is not normal, but should be!!)
Lee Eburn- Mortgage Broker with Colonial Bank- 904-904-874-2900
Lee is great with FHA/VA loans in Jacksonville as well as difficult loans that others simply can't find a way to get done.
He also attends the closings of his clients.
We do not receive anything by you using any of these lenders, we like them because they do what they say, and have never had a surprise at closing.
Step 2 Narrowing your search.
Now you know what price range home you feel comfortable with, it's time to start looking for a home! Narrowing down which side of town you would like to live in can be a difficult task. Land wise Jacksonville,FL is the largest city in the continental United States. There are many options for every price range. You need to figure out what is most important to you, being close to the beach, close to a boat ramp on the river, close to work, specialty schools, close to shopping, and so forth. Before you meet with a Realtor you should have a list of what you want to be close to, that way we the agents can show you your option.
Step 3: Choosing a Buyers Agent.
When hiring someone to sell your home, we suggest you interview three respected agents/companies. When looking for a Buyers Agent (A real estate agent who represent you when buying a home) you can interview agents, but we believe if you simply ask questions of an agent, and then commit to them until they do not fulfill their promises, you will be fine.
Questions to Ask...
1. How long have you been in the business?- We suggest only using agents with at least two years of experience or someone who is a member of a team who has a partner agent with more experience.
2. Do you work in the area I would like to buy in? Believe it or not some agents will take on buyers that are looking for home two hours away from their home office.
3. How do you represent your buyers? Without going into too much detail, Single Agency or "Buyers Agency" is the best representation possible. PLEASE ASK THIS QUESTION. In fact it is Florida Law that the real estate agent disclose how you are being represented before they show you a home.
4. Do you charge a transaction fee to buyers? Many or Most companies charge a transaction fee ranging from $50-$400. This fee is a ju.... well it's a fee, but many agents if you ask up front will wave the transaction fee. Generally the fee goes to the brokerage/company, but sometimes the fee partly goes to the agent.
5.What hours do you work, do you have another agent who can show me property anytime? Agents like everyone else get busy, a good agent has someone, a team member or coworker who can show property to you the buyer if they become unavailable. We like the team concept we have, because our agents fill in for each other rather than giving clients away.
Once you find an agent you can answer these simple five questions, put them to work! There are many different ways to find an agent, the one we truly discourage is driving around and calling on for sale signs!
The representation of a buyers agent is free, or very close to it in most cases. Why would you not use one?
Step 4: Contract/Negotiate/Binder/Inspect/Review/Close
There is more to it than this, but your "Buyers Agent" can help you navigate to closing.
Contact our team at 904-260-3787 for more information on hiring us as your "Buyers Agent"

DISCLAIMER1:
We want to work with you!
Sellers/Buyers
Sellers-We have a system set up for sellers, to get homes sold quickly, correctly and for top dollar. We truly believe you are doing yourself a disservice if you do not interview our team when in the process of selling.
Buyers- We cover all of NE Florida, we work almost 24/7, save Sunday mornings and Sunday Evenings. We try and represent our clients as "buyers agents" whenever possible. Believe it or not your agents work ethic, reputation and lack of experience can cost you your dream home. To our knowledge in 18 years that has never happened and we will try our best not to let it happen in the future
DISCLAIMER2:
We do not want to work with people who are not nice.
If you "do not" consider yourself to be a generally good person, please look over the information, but do not contact our team. We enjoy working hard for our clients, but do not wish to waste our time on people with bad attitudes. Life is too short. There are many agents out there who need to put up with unkind buyers and sellers to make a buck, we do not.
DISCLAIMER3:
Many of the above are opinions and should be taken as such. Other material is for example, use common sense and due diligence when buying/selling/investing in real estate
