TPSG, LLC 3 Report post Posted April 9, 2003 Couple real simple things to think about....always, always put yourself in the mind of your consumer, which is your homebuyer. Think hard about what their needs are, put yourself in their shoes...look around you and notice what attracts your attention when you have needs. I know it may sound cheesy but it is the easiest way to marketing your consumer. Most people try to market and write what sounds good to them, and their message gets lost because it doesn't appeal to their audience. Some of it is going to be trial and error and I know that's not what you want to hear, but it is very simple trial and error. To get you started use the phrases such as: No commissions or agent feesQuick closing in less than 48 hoursCan't sell your home?Stop paying two mortgages? These are generic to some degree but they give you an idea and a place to start, Summer also had some good ones. Let me know if you need any other help.

Andrew Ikeda 0 Report post Posted April 12, 2003 Bradley: Here is what I am using: CAN'T SELL? In a hurry? Late Payments? Nearing Foreclosure? Consider lease purchase because time is money! Free Info: (360) 123-4567 24 hours Been using this for about three weeks now and only got one call from it. Just a thought....but I may need to change it.

Bill_Hubbell 0 Report post Posted April 19, 2003 I have been running this ad every week in a local classified paper. It gets results! "If we could buy or lease your house quickly, would there be a reason for us to talk??? Call Bill @ xxx-xxxx. We will try to help you out of your difficult situation!" The respondents to this ad are overwhelmingly "motivated sellers". Other ads I have run get too many non-motivated sellers by comparison. Hope this gives you something to think about.Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

man 0 Report post Posted April 23, 2003 To run in our local paper, that exact ad would cost $165.00 per 12 days. A bit costly... But well worth it if it gets you just one deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
