Marketing.

Marketing a property is like a fishing game. The more marketing you do, the more buyers you reach. The bigger the net, the more fish you bring in. It is also vital that the marketing budget is spent efficiently. While any agent can just put a property up online in this market, I believe it is important to list with an agent who markets via multiple streams to ensure all different types of buyers see the property.

We ensure the marketing strategy is developed and tailored to meet your needs. This will combine a selection of activities to market your property to its maximum potential.

We closely monitor the effectiveness of all our marketing options so we can select the

Types of Buyers.

Immediate buyer:

This type of buyer is highly engaged in the property market, frequently browsing online listings, attending open houses, and actively seeking new opportunities. They are constantly on the lookout for potential properties and are ready to make a move when they find something that meets their criteria.

right mix of tools that will generate the most enquiries and maximise sales potential with more qualified buyers.

Greater exposure to a wider buying public means more buyers through your property. More competition means a higher price can be achieved.

Our job is to create the absolute most amount of competition to result in the highest possible price.

Property marketing is an indispensable investment that can make a huge difference in a good price and an outstanding price.

Passive buyer:

This buyer is not actively searching for a property and may not be regularly involved in the market. Instead, they are more likely to act if they come across a property that unexpectedly captures their interest or seems particularly appealing. Their buying decision is often driven by the discovery of a property that stands out, rather than a proactive search.

WE ENSURE WE EXPOSE THE PROPERTY TO BOTH TYPES OF BUYERS.

Marketing Example 1.

Obsessed with achieving the best possible price for our clients’ assets, we partner with industryleading professionals in photography and videography.

We know first impressions are lasting and ensure your property is presented in its best light to attract every potential buyer in the marketplace.

Marketing Example 2.

There’s a significant difference between professional photos and outstanding professional photos. Anyone with a camera can call themselves a photographer, but true expertise makes all the difference.

The photography of your property is one of the most critical elements when selling. Poor-quality images can result in thousands of dollars lost on your final sale price.

Digital De Clutter + Virtual Staging.

We understand that tenanted properties may not always be presented in their best form. That’s why we leave no stone unturned when marketing them, doing everything possible to showcase them in the best light and attract the maximum number of buyers.

For vacant properties, which may be empty for various reasons, we utilise cutting-edge technology and the latest staging techniques to create photo-realistic images. Shadowing and micro-textures are seamlessly blended, producing finished images that look as if the property were traditionally staged.

Tips.

What to be careful for when selling your home

Selecting an agent based on price not process

A common mistake when selecting an agent is listing with an agent based on the highest appraisal price. Some agents will often provide sellers with an inflated appraisal price to win business initially, they then deliver low price feedback a few weeks later to bring sellers down in price. It is very important to remember that the first 2-3 weeks of having your property on the market is the most crucial and when you will receive the highest amount of interest.

It is the agent that offers the best process that will get you the highest possible price the market will pay.

Selecting an agent based on commission

The best agent and the cheapest agent is not the same thing. The best agent is the one that puts the most dollars in your bank account

The few thousand you may think you save on commission could cost you tens of thousands on your final sale price.

Free marketing campaign

Some agents may offer you a completely free marketing campaign for your property. This is commonly free to agents and means you are displayed at the very bottom of internet search results, which leads to very limited exposure to buyers.

An effective advertising campaign can add tens of thousands of dollars to your sale price and help you reach a sale faster.

Some agents will not have their potential clients’ best interests at heart when they offer a free marketing campaign – their sole intention is to ‘win’ your business.

Unenthusiastic agent

Some agents may become complacent and less enthusiastic about selling property after working in the industry for an extended period. This often leads to agents taking days off during the week, teaming up with another agent in the office, or even hiring an assistant to conduct buyer inspections.

Tips.

The cheapest agent and the best agent are not the same thing.

Many owners make the mistake of thinking they’re saving money by selecting an agent with free & poor marketing or selecting a discount commission cutting agent. However, this decision can actually end up costing them thousands in terms of their sale price.

Work with an agent who maximises your sale price - not minimises it.

Our Marketing Strategies.

Direct Mail

We send targeted mail to neighboring property owners. As neighbouring owners often know someone - such as a family member or friendwho is looking to buy in the street or building, or might be considering purchasing another property themselves.

Social Media

We leverage the power of social media, targeting the 2.5 hours a day the average person spends on these platforms to engage passive buyers effectively.

Real Estate Websites

Realestate.com.au: Australia’s largest real estate website, ensuring broad visibility.

Domain.com: A major website in NSW & VIC for interstate exposure.

De Jersey Estate Co: Localised exposure to attract regional buyers. Over 1,400 monthly website visits.

Photography

Photos are a key part of selling property, but it’s all about quality.

We ensure we use drone photography for every single property to capture stunning aerial views and provide detailed floor plans to give buyers a clear perspective of the space.

Text Message Marketing

Strategically timed text messages inform our database of buyers about your property, ensuring immediate and targeted communication.

Email Marketing

Our database marketing targets potential buyers through personalised email campaigns. We monitor who views these emails and interacts with your property, and follow up directly with those who haven’t yet made an enquiry. Research shows buyers typically need to see a property three times before they enquire. We proactively engage to speed up this process and self-generate inspections.

Email and Text Reminders

We send follow-up reminders to buyers of open home times who have shown interest in your property. They are advised of every upcoming inspection time until they have inspected.

Prominent For Sale Sign

We use large, eye-catching signs that ensure 24/7 visibility. In high-traffic areas, these signs can even be lit up for maximum exposure.

Copywriting

Great photos are important, but so is the copywriting. We don’t just rely on images; we believe the words we use are equally crucial. Our aim is to excite buyers even before they see the property in person. We discuss the lifestyle and what it’s like to own the property, highlighting the advantages of the area. We want potential buyers to be excited to enquire and inspect.

Buyers Agent

We collaborate with a network of buyers’ agents and personally notify them about your property, inviting them to inspect it. This proactive approach ensures that as soon as they have a new client, your property is top of mind.

Points of Difference.

The major difference between Zack compared to other agents is that Zack is your first and only point of contact throughout the entire process. But importantly he is the one that conducts all buyer enquiries, all buyer inspections, all negotiations.

What this allows Zack to do is understand buyer behaviour, which is one of the core foundations of his business model. He finds it important to build relationships with these buyers, knowing what they have bid on and what they have made offers on in the past. He understands what is important to the buyer. This gives him a clear advantage in a negotiation.

This is what differentiates Zack from his competitors and gets his clients the best outcome.

When you place your property on the market with Zack, he is available 100% of the time. If you try and contact or email any of Zack’s properties that are for sale, he is the only point of contact. You call his phone number, you deal with him – not an assistant or associate. You go to any of Zack’s open homes, he is the agent conducting the inspection.

Zack prides himself on the fact that when you list your property with him, he can promise his

clients that he will be the agent representing the sale of their largest asset.

Zack lives and breathes real estate. He could never see himself in another industry. Whether it is meeting a photographer at 4:30am to photograph a property at dawn or meeting a buyer at 10pm at night to sign a contract, Zack is available 100% of the time.

Zack spends his days and nights solely dealing with his vendors and qualifying/showing buyers through property.

Zack defines a new era in the local real estate industry. Zack embraces technology, utilising it each and every day by refining processes to improve efficiency and productivity, which gives him the ability to consistently deliver results to his sellers. He also understands that there is a generation that prefers old-fashioned style service, and he ensures he offers a perfect mix of service to all his clients.

Zack helped us sell two properties in Kings Beach in the span of a few months. Right from the start, Zack and his team were diligent, quick, and targeted with their marketing and communication.

Best RE agent around!
