Your Fort Thomas Home’s Marketing Plan: What to Expect From a Listing Agent

What a complete marketing plan for a Fort Thomas listing includes, from the MLS and professional media to targeted advertising, and the questions to ask an agent before you sign.

Key takeaways

  • The MLS is the foundation: it reaches local buyer’s agents and feeds the major home search sites.
  • Professional photos, video and a 3D tour should be ready the day the home goes live.
  • Targeted digital advertising reaches buyers who are not yet working with an agent.
  • A launch plan for the first two weeks matters more than anything that comes later.
  • Ask every agent you interview for their plan in writing.

★★★★★

Worked with them to buy and later sell my home. They were so responsive and fast that we were able to buy and sell at the best prices possible. Dianna and Derek were the best we could have hoped for.
