Introduction: The Red Door Atlanta Team believes that the right marketing strategy makes all the difference. We go above and beyond to market your home using all the latest advancements in technology, social media, and publicity strategies to ensure your home reaches the maximum number of potential buyers. More buyer exposure can mean more offers, bidding wars, and ultimately, more money and less time on the market for you.
Where Buyers Come From: By studying where and how buyers find the home they purchase, we’ve created our marketing and prospecting plans to ensure every single buyer who could possibly buy a home like yours knows your home is for sale. In fact, we are 100% confident that NO ONE can expose your home to the masses like we can!
This data comes from the National Association of Realtors annual study of home buyers and sellers. Since 76% of buyers find their home online (including apps and social media) and through their realtor, we focus heavily on these sources without ignoring the rest!
