Real Estate Services for Calgary Investors

Marketing an Investment Property for Calgary Investors!

I have studied real estate marketing extensively- I believe that it doesn't matter how good your product or service is, if no one knows about it, it’s useless.

So when you're selling an investment property ask yourself, "am I getting the maximum exposure for my property?"

Does my Realtor understand my needs as an Investor (in the current Calgary market)

These are some of the questions I used to ask Realtors in Calgary, when I started out as an investor- and part of the reason I sold some of my houses without them.

When I decided that I needed the exposure that MLS could provide along with the credibility (Buyers feel more confident that if a property is listed by a Realtor it is priced fair). Whether it is true or not, really doesn't matter, it what people believe to be true is what counts.

So what does this mean for you the Investor?

Some houses you buy and sell can and should be sold by yourself (avoiding Realtor commissions can put alot of cash in your pocket).

Other times it is critical to use a Realtor- like right know when there is an overwhelming supply of houses on the market and not as many motivated buyers. What you as the investor need to determine, is what marketing your Realtor will do and how they are going to earn their commissions?

My strengths lay in selling houses very fast. If you are interested in how I sell houses so quickly for my Investors, just fill in the form below where I discuss the 5 Secrets to Selling your Calgary Investment fast!

How Marketing Saved My Ace!

I took an add out in the Herald;

"Must Sell, 1400sq/ft 1.5 Storey’s, Fixer Upper. Investor Going Under!"

In 2 hours I had 30 calls. By day 4, over 100 phone calls. Who came by, mainly shady investors, realtors and looky-loos? But when it came down to it, I only needed 1 serious buyer and that’s what I got- the house sold in just 4 days for $202,000.

In essence I used a technique called wholesaling- as I really didn't add any value to the house. I needed to sell on favorable terms to an investor in order to sell quickly and for a profit.

I was able to sell the house in 4 days for a profit because I understood what the investor needed. By not focusing just on price, I was able to attract investors, new home buyers and Realtors to check out my house. You can bet with over 100 people stopping by over 4 days- someone was going to get anxious to buy.

My knack for marketing homes to Investors combined with investing experience, sets me apart from the agents who deal mainly with emotional buyers and sellers.
