REAL ESTATE MARKETING CALENDAR APRIL 2021: An action-packed period for real estate agents
With the return of fine weather, real estate agents, sales representatives and agents will not be short of actions to be carried out on the ground. In order to present the properties to potential buyers, it is necessary to have studied them sufficiently beforehand. Also, keeping up to date with the latest news in the area will be greatly appreciated by your contacts.
It would be wise to offer good quality virtual tours of the properties put up for sale by your agency. In the same way, you can present the neighbourhood or the nearby environment with videos filmed on sunny days. After visiting a property virtually, prospects have a better idea of its value. Afterwards, if they wish to make a physical visit, they have a greater probability of signing the sale. By doing so, you reduce the number of physical visits and save time. In the end, you will increase your chances of selling and realizing a real estate project.
For the spring holidays, you can put forward the seasonal hiring by presenting various advertisements located at the seaside, in the mountains, etc. Also, the publication of articles presenting the advantages of renting through an agency will be more successful at this time of the year. This content can then be shared on Facebook. In addition, it will be interesting to add links to rental ads that encourage a change of scenery.
