USING SOCIAL MEDIA TO SELL THE HOME
Social media is one of the most prominent media outlets on which to advertise your home sales information. Studies have shown that social media conversations significantly influence property buying decisions. The phenomenal amount of exposure that your property will get on social media is encouraging. Using social media enhances the possibility of selling your property and selling it quicker. While providing the widest and most targeted reach possible, social media advertising is also the least expensive avenue — free! To take best advantage of this marketing channel, create a social media page for your house using Facebook and Twitter. Both have advantages. The former is good for imagery and the latter is the best avenue to develop local networks. Make the page appealing to potential buyers with a strong cover, profile picture of the home, and details of the location in text boxes. Great images are the key to attracting potential local buyers. Using a professional photographer is a must. The amount you spend will come back in attention. Take advantage of the video possibilities on Facebook. Post a walkthrough of your home for potential buyers — a virtual showing. Share information about the locality, neighbourhood, and the highlights of the property.
