Selling your own home? Home sellers need to get the word out that they are selling their house, and what better way to do that than with social media? Sites such as Facebook and Twitter are incredibly useful tools in the real estate world. But how can home sellers utilize them to their advantage?
Establish an Online Presence
The most important thing you can do is establish a positive and engaging online presence. A web page or URL is essential so that you can link to it on social media sites. According to ISoldMyHouse.com, listing your property on a FSBO listing site is a great way to gain online presence and assist in the sale of your home.
Share Regularly
Don’t forget to share your listing over and over again, and retweet just as often. This way, you gain followers and interest in your home. Encourage all of your friends to spread the online word, too.
Consider YouTube Video Tours
Give potential buyers an opportunity to tour the inside of your home and highlight its features by making and posting a YouTube video. You don’t need to be a professional; simply use your smartphone. Once it’s filmed, market your video by sharing it on social media channels and your blog if you have one.
Create a Facebook Ad
If you don’t mind spending a few bucks, creating an ad on Facebook will help you to gain more exposure for your home listing. The more you spend, the bigger reach you’ll get, so you have lots of options.
