Top Ten Reasons to List Your Home With Christopher Smith
Today is August 25, 2008. The real estate "season," not unlike the baseball season is just getting warmed up. There is plenty of time to list your home with a professional Realtor who knows the real estate market and more importantly knows how to market your house to sell and not sit on the market for six months. Let's get right to it!
I have just been nominated by Real Estate Magazine, the #1 real estate magazine in the country as one of the "Top 50 Up and Coming Realtors in the Country." Thousands of nominations were submitted and only 50 were selected. I'm proud of this nomination because I worked my "you know what" off to get there.
Educators make the best Realtors. We're used to taking care of families and meeting their needs. We also spend a great deal of time educating ourselves in our craft. I personally spend two to three hours a day reading blogs, articles, and educating myself personally and professionally.
I was born and raised in Cedar Rapids. Not many Realtors in town can make this claim. I know every nook and cranny of this town so I can serve your needs better.
I personally have relationships with members of every real estate brokerage in town. This means that I stay in contact with these people, let them know when I have new listings, and virally "broadcast" your listing to as many Realtors in town as possible.
My website: www.christophersmithrealtor.com is ranked #1 in Cedar Rapids, #1 in Iowa, and in the top 300 in the country (ranked by www.point2agent.com real estate corporation. It is ranked high because I cater to you, my client, the buyer and seller. I have designed my website to educate the consumer that visits, and to market your home to sell quicker and for more of the asking price. I am the only LOCAL REALTOR on PAGE ONE OF GOOGLE for the #1 KEY SEARCH PHRASE, "CEDAR RAPIDS REAL ESTATE." What does this mean for you if you list with me. On average, 40 unique, first time visitors come to my website each and every day. Your listing goes on my homepage as a "Featured Listing." What are the chances that a potential buyer is out there and sees your house and falls in love with it???
I am the #1 real estate blogger in Cedar Rapids. When I blog (write an article) about your property, it is broadcast to literally hundreds of outlets for other subscribers and would be readers to digest. Once again, getting out the message that a beautiful new listing has hit my website's homepage is front page news to hundreds of "potential buyers."
I believe in allowing my seller's a special backstage pass to my website, so you can see personally how my marketing plan WORKS! You will see where buyer's are seeing your listing, as it could be on any of the 30+ affiliate websites that your listing goes to immediately after being posted on my site. You will see how many people download my customized listing brochure on your property, and how many hits your property receives each and every day!
I live my personal and business life by the "Get by Giving" philosophy. This means the more I give of my time, my efforts, my professionalism, and my money, the more I receive from others. You can call it Paying it Forward, Get by Giving, but it's all about giving back to the community where I was born and raised.
The last reason you should list your home with me is perhaps the most important. It's called I AM THIRD. My faith in GOD is first and foremost in my life. Second comes my family and friends. Third comes myself.
When you list your house with me, this is what you can expect!
Your house will be priced to sell and not to sit on the market for six months.
Your house will be marketed and exposed virally. That is your house will have local, regional, national, and international exposure; will be exposed on over 30 affiliate websites and receive the attention that your house deserves.
Your house will have "Featured Listing" status on my homepage for additional exposure.
I am a master communicator and getting back to potential buyers, other Realtors wanting to show your house of YOU is one of my top priorities each and every day!
What have you got to lose by listing with me? Thousands of dollars, a stressful "Listing" period, lack of communication from other Realtors, world class marketing and service, that's all!
