Each property is exposed to over 3,700+ agents all working in cooperation to sell your property. This
coverage means maximum MLS coverage for you, the property owner. Other agencies,
on average, participate in one, perhaps two MLS systems due to price and area
coverage. At ACHR we participate in five MLS systems to maximize your property's
coverage.
* Open status
listing agreements are not permitted into MLS systems per the Board
regulations. Discuss with your agent which type of agreement
is best for your needs.
exposure
with Adirondack Country Homes Realty Inc. means exposure to over 900,000+ hits
per year ('06 status) to a targeted real estate audience, not just general
directories and lists. Our Internet is designed for consumer simplicity of use and searchability,
combined with matching the algorithms of major search engines like Google.
In late '07, we became #2 with Google under the search terms "Adirondack
Real Estate."
Each branch office has their
individual web site in order to cater to the local area. Plus we have
specialized sites for our various departments (forestry, auction, property
management, exclusive buyer's program, log home sales, and our global
marketing office in the United Kingdom).
Properties listed with
ACHR are, also, posted on satellite sites such
as Realtor.com, LoopNet, Homestore, Builtforus, forsalebusiness, BizBuySell,
My Home Shopper, Home Seekers, Craig's List, Trulia and many others. We don't stop at
just our web site! We maintain thousands of links! We post your
property with many other services. Ask your ACHR agent where
you'll be listed!
Our Internet marketing has
produced about 80% of our sales, so our marketing theory is "No Stone
Unturned" and we give this media 80%+ effort!
-
While the Internet marketing produces 80% of sales, we still believe in the
old fashion print. ACHR advertises in
the many local real estate guides. These are guides that the tourist take home, and
the publishers have a wide local distribution network. In addition to
our local real estate guides, ACHR produces it own catalog which is
distributed at our office locations and provided by
free subscription. Our ACHR catalogs are
printed on a 'as needed' basis. We'll never have outdated catalogs to
distribute. Brochures and flyers are customized for all our advertising
in-house on color digital equipment by a Desktop Publisher Designer. We advertise in local newspapers and national magazines
(as needed) to improve
our client's marketing exposure.
- We
reach beyond the MLS, the Internet, and the local guides to hunt and seek
out prospects for our clients. Some examples: 1) Our professional
agents seek out non-MLS agents and out of area agents and invite them to
co-broke with us, 2) occasionally, we create custom brochures and flyers
for special mailings for the 'one-of-a-kind' properties,
3) we post flyers in our store front windows where there are live agents on
duty, 4) post signage for drive-by exposure of your property and
provide the "Talking House"
or brochure boxes to properties (when available), 5) each
property is digitally photographed to expedite delivery to our Internet
customers and/or creation of CD presentation, 6) each property has it's own personal agent assign to them, backed
by our the entire ACHR team, and
7) owner's properties are matched with our extensive 'customer waiting'
list.
- Once we
establish interest in your property, our Realtors
®
are trained to follow-up on each prospect until they "close" the deal.
While sellers can use non-Realtors, or do-it-yourself, or discount
brokerages, sellers that engage with professional Realtors®
find more success in achieving, or exceeding their financial goals.
The old quote of "you pay for what you get" is still at work. If you want to
achieve your goals, start your marketing plan with a Realtor®.
OTHER MARKETING TOOLS
All our individual
web pages have traffic analyzers; whereby, we can monitor the
Internet traffic of each property, as well as track what
search criteria the surfers personally utilized. This
provides valuable insight for the webmaster and agents.
ACHR also sponsors
an unique information/concierge web site titled "In
And Around The Adirondack Park." This web site is
packed with information about the "fun" part of the Park
which is probably half of the reasons why you are choosing to
invest in properties in the Adirondack Park. This site
is our "work in progress" hobby to provide visitors
information about every business, every site-seeing
opportunity, and service in the Adirondacks, as well as a
little story telling and sharing. It's all FREE to
both the surfer and the advertisers*.
