How to Attract More Buyers and Sell Faster

Marketing Beyond Rightmove - How to Attract More Buyers and Sell Faster

Selling your home isn’t just about putting it on a portal and waiting. Yes, platforms like Rightmove and Zoopla are important – but the most successful sales often come from a more proactive, strategic approach. Here’s how we market your home differently.

1. Heads Up Alerts - Your Home in Front of Buyers First

Before we launch your property online, we let our database of serious, local buyers know about it. These are people already looking – and often the first to view and offer.

2. Bespoke Video Tours That Tell a Story

Photos are essential – but video brings your home to life. We create personalised video tours that highlight five key features that make your property special. From golden hour kitchen light to secret garden corners, we’ll capture what makes your home memorable.

3. Targeted Facebook Advertising

We don’t wait for people to find your home – we put it in front of them. Facebook allows us to target specific buyers based on location, life stage, or motivation – like upsizing families or school movers.

4. Smart Pre-Launch Testing

We soft-launch your home to our database and social channels first, testing pricing and presentation. This helps us gather real feedback and make tweaks before going live to the wider market.

5. Ready-to-Go Documentation

When searches are ordered and forms are ready upfront, buyers feel more confident – and often move faster. This preparation makes your home more attractive to serious buyers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do video tours really make that much of a difference?
A: Absolutely. Video gives buyers a much clearer sense of space and atmosphere – and when it highlights your home's unique selling points, it can spark more interest and emotional connection.

Q: What’s the benefit of Heads Up Alerts compared to going straight on Rightmove?
A: It lets us test pricing and presentation with serious, registered buyers before launching to the wider market. This early feedback often leads to quicker sales and better offers.

Q: Will I be involved in the video tour process?
A: Yes – in fact, we rely on you to help identify the five features that make your home stand out. Together, we make sure the video tour tells a story buyers will remember.

Q: What makes Facebook ads more effective than just using portals?
A: Facebook allows us to target specific groups of buyers – like families upsizing or people moving for schools – before they even start searching online. It’s proactive rather than passive marketing.
