LETS TALK MARKETING
Here are some, among others, of the ways we have your property be seen through out the community and over seas!
VIRTUAL VILLAGE
Visit our Virtual Village
Every active listing with a video of the property gets featured on a page on the Village Properties website which receives hundreds of clicks per day. This is the perfect place to gain exposure on a property that is listed.
Video Tour
Video tours are mini-movies of the exterior and interior or home. They highlight sweeping views of a property and can dramatically feature its location. These videos are perfect for sharing over our YouTube page, agent website, in the MLS, and on all social media (IG, FB. Linkedin).
Virtual Open House
Virtual Open House’s usually feature the listing agent leading a video tour of a home. They talk about the features of a property and discuss it while giving the camera a quick look around. Virtual Open Houses can be scheduled and presented over Instagram and Facebook Live, where users who are interested can hop on and listen in and ask questions in live time.
SOCIAL MEDIA
Inventory Checks
An individual collection of Story content with the intent to capture the essence of a property and make it shine in the best light. No cold, professional photography here. We have our experts come to the property and document all the details, focusing primarily on video. With quick turn-around times, a Story is produced and posted on Village Properties social channels.
Featured Property In-feed Post
We highlight properties regularly on the VP social channels using professional photography from the listings on the MLS. We describe the property in the caption and provide links to the property’s page on the Village Properties website.
Sponsored Advertisements over Social Media
Facebook Ads works over Facebook and Instagram to deliver content to a new audience. By sponsoring posts, you can reach tens of thousands of people and give them a specific call-to-action, be it a website link, phone number, or an Instagram profile or Facebook page. Talk to your Realtor today to see what options you have for sponsored content.
