In the age of the internet, we are more connected than ever to sell a property to the right Mountain Buyer. You have to be top in your field of online engagement with potential Buyers and Brokers so they can easily see themselves buying the home of their dreams!
When listing a property on websites or social media sites, the information provided is pertinent so that potential buyers know what they are getting into to take the action needed. This includes professional images or videos of different rooms, amenities offered in the area and information about activities in the area.
So let's go over what you need to do when it comes to preparing an effective real estate listing:
Where is this property?
As the property market is becoming more and more competitive, there are many property listing websites that users can choose from. It is our job to get unique mountain properties infront of the Best Audience to get the largest exposure in the market therefore getting the best offers. It is important for these websites to provide the most accurate and up-to-date listings as possible.
When to sell your property?
Timing is key in real estate. You have to be strategic when you want to sell your property. You need to take into account various factors such as the time of the year, location, and your personal needs.
There are certain best times of the year to list your home for sale if you want to maximize its value and attract a lot of buyers. The spring and summer months tend to be peak seasons for home sales, but it also depends on the location and what you need from a property in order for it to work well for you.
The time it takes for a home to sell is largely dependent on the preparation done by the seller. Before listing their property, sellers should ensure that their home is in the best condition possible and that its price is competitive. Sellers should also set a timeline and budget for their sale and be prepared to pay all of the expenses that come with it.
Set a realistic price
Pricing is a complicated subject. Property listings and properties themselves vary in quality and location. Setting a realistic price is vital for maximizing your sales and attracting buyers that are ready to make an offer.
The most important thing to remember when setting a realistic price is that it depends on the property listing, not just on the property itself. A realistic price for your property will depend on the location, neighborhood, amenities, and the condition of your home.
A realistic price will help you get potential buyers. A low listing price might lead people to believe that your home is not worth much, or that it needs many repairs, or that there are other issues with the home.

Listing a property is not always an easy task. You may have improvements needed before listing, the market could be shifting in your neighborhood, local regulations need to be disclosed, documents about the property need to be organized....
Let an expert help... we can do the research, gather data, and build a game plan to get to your goals.
However, it is important to know what you are looking for in a Broker. They may specialize in a certain region such as rural property or urban apartments. Or they may specialize in a specific type of property such as Ranch property or Resort properties. Hiring a Local Broker will increase your chances of getting your place sold quickly and at a higher price than if you were to sell without their help.
That is why if you’re planning to sell, we got you covered!

2 年Lindsey, when you are selling land and water, I would add professional assessments to this list. I see so many high-end listings that completely overlook input from resource professionals who can add great value to land just by their judgement. For instance there are so many unproductive streams that can realize significant value enhancement with very little investment. Of course I also look for these less than perfect properties for my own investment.
