New Marketing Add-on… Movies to Help Sell Your Home.
Since early this year I’ve been adding video movies of my listings to each presentation package I have. The movies are very effective and have had a very positive response. In fact, every home I’ve listed has had a movie on it and has sold! That’s quite a statement in today’s market.
The movies are a natural addition to the presentation package I provide for every listing. The tours show the detail, and the movie, with the narration and soundtrack, is like viewing a commercial on each home. I can also post the movies to many different sites, including a separate marketing button on Realtor.com and at Youtube.com. In fact, take a spin at www.youtube.com and search Fauna MacKillip and I’m sure some of my postings will show up.
The Realtor.com posting is a little harder to show you because they only show current homes for sale. But when I list your home for sale, I’m going to post the video there, and I challenge you to find another agent that is doing that.
I’ve always had a competitive advantage over other agents and their marketing programs, but this is the strongest program I’ve ever offered, and it works! By the way, did I mention that it is part of my standard program.
Ok… That’s it for now. I want to save something for later. Thank you for spending some time with my blog and if you have any questions, just give me a call at 303-798-8700.
Thank You for reading my blog,

Remember My Moving Truck??

I think most people in the south metro areas of Denver have received something from me over the years. You’ve watched my kids grow up in the various ads I’ve sent out, and many of you still remember my moving truck program too. Well, guess what? My moving truck program is alive and well!
After many requests, I’ve re-instated the program, so if you are planning on selling your home give me a call and I’ll outline the current program. I even have a bit of information on the program on this website. Check it out.... Just click on the Moving button above and you'll get to see the program in action.
Thanks for reading my blog.

Current Market Stats 7/31/2008

It’s been quite awhile since I swore that I would start a blog… and trust me, getting started is the hard part. I have lots of ideas, but somehow they get all out of whack when I try to write them down. So with that as my most recent excuse, here I go.
The Current Market. There are some signs of life out there and sales have picked up from the early spring when they were running behind last year. I’m not ready to call a bottom in the market yet, but the foreclosures have shown a slight drop in our area and current financing rates and terms have remained stable even with the very recent instability the the mortgage market has seen. Maybe some of the government bailout programs are going to help
Here are the current Year-to-Date sales statistics for the southern metro areas. These are just basic statistics for this blog, but I do have full information on every neighborhood. If you would like me to get you those stats, just give me a call and I would be pleased to do so.
