PROPERTY ADVICE BLOG - Advertise Your Property - Online Sales Options

How it works? - You can put together a short video or slide show with audio commentary showing and describing your property - this is now much easier than you might think with most PCs and Mac computers these days coming with in-built media software. This video can then be posted to video-sharing sites such as YouTube or www.Revver.com. Prospective buyers can the take a virtual tour of your property and contact you direct to arrange a viewing.

What it costs? - FREE!

What are the benefits? - Access trendy web surfers who wouldn’t be seen dead on a property portal. What to watch out for: Video sharing sites are NOT normally the first stop for people wanting to buy a house.

Success rate: 3/10 – full marks for ingenuity, but realistically probably not the best way to attract buyers.

How it works? - Post details and pictures of your property on the online auction site, decide how long you want it to appear for and set a start price. Play safe by including a reserve price.

What it costs? - A fixed fee of £35 to post the property; £2 extra to fix a reserve price.

What are the benefits? - People love the idea of online auctions, which can drive prices up. Catch bored office workers surfing the web in their lunch hours. What to watch out for: Beware chancers: it’s a nonbinding sale.

 

Success rate: 5/10 – will appeal to nonconformists
