Atlanta Realtor Goes Virtual
Drive Buyer Traffic by Going Virtual
According to the National Association of Realtors, 90% of potential home buyers use the internet to search for their next home. Did you know 85% of those buyers say its the photos that are the most important factor when deciding to view a home? What do your photos say about your vacant listing?
Liz B., a Realtor in Atlanta, Georgia tried out virtual staging for her recent vacant listings. She shares her success with the service along with her before and after pictures she recieved and placed online.
Liz states “The first vacant property we used virtual staging with drew 2 offers within the first week and closed within 17 days while capturing 96% of list price. The sellers were ecstatic! The virtual staging helped make the home a must see for buyers. The second property we had virtually staged went under contract within 30 days after posting the staged pictures.”
“Every vacant property I list I have virtually staged. The first showings occur when potential buyers view photos of the home online. If buyers don’t see the purpose for each room, or gain a sense of warmth, they simply move on. They will not schedule a showing appointment and you will lose that buyer. I am certain had we not used virtual staging that we would have faced more days on market as well as price reductions.” explains Liz.
Liz was overall very pleased with the service and closed saying “I will continue to use virtual home staging and recommend this amazing marketing tool to Realtors.”

JEANNIE THOMPSON, Agent | Long & Foster – Virginia
“Your virtual staging product is sensational! The efficiency condo I had listed was in a community of 60+ units for sale and had no offers. After posting the 3 virtually staged photos of my unit, I got an offer within 5 days and beat out all the competing units listed in the same price range. Thanks for a great job!”

MARTHA MAY, Realtor | Koenig & Strey – Illinois
“We received 2 offers in less than a week and a half. The property was listed with vacant photos for over 220 days on the market with no offers. Many buyers passed on the house but after posting the virtual photos, they changed their minds and we definitely saw an increase in buyer traffic!”
