Is Your House Invisible to Buyers?

I know…I’ve gone on and on about the statistics.  Over 85% of today’s buyers are looking on the internet for their new home.  Listings with multiple photos and virtual tours get more views and more attention from buyers than those without.  Kind of common sense, huh?

Well, if I know this, and you know this, then please tell me why there are agents who still don’t get it.  I’d really like to understand. 

I was going through the MLS this morning, looking for the perfect new listings to send to my buyers.  Here’s the info on the 40 that I viewed this morning:

• 4 had only 1 picture (the MLS allows us to upload 8 photos)
• 19 had NO pictures and
• Zero – that’s right – not a single one of them had a virtual tour

Despite the glowing descriptions, carefully crafted by the listing agents, it all comes down to one question.  Is this how you attract a buyer to your property?
