Seller Gets More Showings With Don Anthony Realty

Here’s an email I received this morning from a current Seller Client.  He was formerly with an agent from a very large real estate brokerage in the region before he decided to use Don Anthony Realty.  The result of the switch… More than twice as many showings in less time! 

 

Whether you are “For Sale By Owner”, looking for a “Discount Realtor®” or have tried unsuccessfully to sell with a full commission real estate agent, check out our program to help you get your home sold!  We’ve sold more homes over the last 2 years than over 99.3% of the agents in the Charlotte Region, so we must be doing something right!

 

Thanks,

 

– Don

Q: How can my home for sale get to the top of Zillow?… A: Sell a home with Don Anthony Realty!

Question: How can my home for sale get to the top of Zillow?

Answer: Sell a home with Don Anthony Realty!

 

Don Anthony Realty, the Region’s Premier Discount Realtor® with a hybrid approach combining the savings of a “For Sale By Owner” and flat fee MLS Listings with Full-Service Real Estate Brokers, has done it again!  We have partnered with Zillow.com, the nation’s #2 home search website, to provide all of our clients with “Featured” listings!  (This is in addition and at no extra cost to already providing “Showcase” listings to all of our clients on the #1 home search website, Realtor.com!)  Rather than be buried somewhere amidst hundreds of other homes, the owner of a home we’ve listed for sale can be confident their home will be found by buyers searching on that website.  Since all “Featured” listings are put at the top of the search, Don Anthony Realty listings stand out from the competition and are seen first!  The more often a home is seen by potential buyers, the more likely that the right buyer will find it and the home will be sold!  (Doesn’t sound like a Discount Realtor® does it?!)

 

As an example, when searching for homes in a the popular Charlotte area of Ballantyne in zipcode 28277, nearly 2500 homes come up on the search.  With about 25 homes per page, this means there are nearly 100 pages of homes to look at!  Of those homes, only 22 are “Featured” homes and they automatically show up at the top on page 1 of that search.  Out of the 22 “Featured” homes, 10 of them are from Don Anthony Realty!  That’s nearly HALF of all “Featured” homes!!!
