Marketing advice

Marketing of properties for sale is usually a rather muted and impersonal process in the UK. However, Green2Blue believe house buying and selling is a highly personal and individual matter for all concerned.

Therefore the main focus for your chosen estate agent is is to create as much interest in houses for sale by using modern methods and applying personal energy to the whole marketing process.

Green2Blue prides itself on providing as much detailed information as possible to assist potential purchasers to make up their minds. This care about property details attracts potential buyers and saves unnecessary viewings of unsuitable properties by buyers.

The extra effort to display houses to their best advantage pays off in improved customer satisfaction.

This being said means the estate agent or property specialist you choose should offer you at a minimum:

• a map of the general area, this way you can familarise yourself with all ammenities
• directions how to find the property, meaning you get there on time
• a general description of the property, knowing what to expect
• room measurements & description, to make sure it meets your house needs
• a floor plan of the building, illustrating the layout of the property
• square footage of the property, sizes to assist in planning
• professional quality interactive video virtual tour, to maximise advertising
• high quality still pictures of the garden and the property
• a fold-out glossy brochure either in PDF or printed.

For Sale Display Board

Green2Blue insists you have your property specialist erect a 'For Sale' sign for your house, this increases awareness in the local area and will speed up the marketing of the property.
