Smart Mobile Marketing Serving the Mobile Customer As consumers begin to move rapidly from PC and regular phones to smartphones, they increase their expectation that everything (especially information) be portable. According to CTIA’s semi-annual wireless industry survey, 90% of Canadian consumers own cell phones - 98% of which are SMS-enabled (Smart Message Service). What is a mobile site and how does this technology work? Mobile sites are designed for the small screen, with the needs of mobile users in mind. A mobile-friendly site will display its content on smartphones across all platforms (iPhones and Androids). In most cases this information is delivered to the end-user by means of a short code. The short codes replaces the traditional mobile phone number is is normally a 5 to 6 digit numerica code (e.g. 71441) Unlike QR (Quick Read) codes the smart phone users don’t have to download an app this is required to read the code. Smart Mobile Marketing is purely SMS based- a user simply texts a keyword (e.g. MLS219) to a short code

Dream home check list
High Performance Real Estate Team
1. How long have you been a REALTOR®? A new REALTOR® can do a wonderful job and will have up- to-date training. Those in the business longer bring practical experience to the table. 2. What is your average list-to-sales ratio? A good REALTOR® should hold a track record for how many properties they have listed compared to how many they have sold within a given time period. In a good market, there would be about six sales for every 10 listings. In a poor market, there would be about four sales for every 10 listings. 3. How will your marketing plan meet my needs? Specifically, how will you sell my home? Where and how often will you advertise? Do you have sample flyer, advertisements, and web copy? 4. Will you provide references? Ask if you can talk to past clients. Then follow up and talk to them. 5. What separates you from your competition? Key phrases to listen for: assertive, available by phone or e-mail, analytical, able to maintain a good sense of humour under trying circumstances. 6. May I review documents that I will be asked to sign? A good REALTOR® makes forms available to you before you are required to sign them. Ask to see agency disclosure, listing agreement, seller disclosure forms. 7. How will you help me find other professionals? Ask for a written list of referring vendors. Get an explanation if you see the term “affiliated.” It could mean the REALTOR® is getting compensation from vendors. 8. How much do you charge? You don’t have to ask if the fee is negotiable, since all real estate fees are negotiated. 9. What kind of guarantee do you offer? If you sign a listing agreement with the REALTOR® and later find that you are unhappy with the arrangement, will the REALTOR® let you cancel the agreement? 10. What haven’t I asked you that I need to know? Pay close attention to how the REALTOR® answers this question, because there is always something you need to know.

Commercial realtors help sell Does a commercial REALTOR® add value to a sale, or are business owners better off selling their businesses themselves? Weigh your options wisely and take note of these important considerations. Selling a business is complex. It requires the expertise of a professional who understands the commercial market and can follow through with an aggressive marketing plan to sell your business for its maximum value. Your REALTOR® can develop a comprehensive marketing plan that far exceeds anything you can create on your own. Your property will be put in front of buyers worldwide, providing maximum exposure. Your commercial REALTOR® will also provide REALTORS® - only tours, targeted newspaper listings, direct mail pieces, signs, advertising on CLSLink and other marketing activities. Setting the price of your business is vital and requires extensive knowledge, training and access to the latest market information. Can you accurately gauge the value of your business in today's changing market? Can you risk pricing your business too high and discouraging potential buyers or pricing it too low and losing some of your equity? Commercial REALTORS® are experienced negotiators. Ask yourself this: are you able to be objective while a potential buyer walks through your business pointing out flaws and potential problems? Are you able to suggest financing options to potential buyers? REALTORS® are skilled in arranging financing and closing deals. They also provide undivided loyalty in protecting your negotiating position at all times. A commercial REALTOR® will implement marketing initiatives, advise you on market conditions and prepare your legal documents when drawing up a legally binding contract.

How to review an offer for purchase If you have ever sold a home before, you know there is a lot more to an offer to purchase than merely the price the buyer is willing to pay. Other important factors that must be weighed carefully include a suitable closing date, financing, conditions and items which are to be included in the sale. It is a good idea to discuss all of these points with your REALTOR®. Closing Date: The closing date is one of the most important things to consider. Is it going to involve extra cost to you to have to move on a particular date? Are you going to have to store your furniture because of a short closing or face the prospect of carrying two properties for a couple of extra months because of an unusually long closing? Financing: Financing also has a great impact on the offer. For example, if you have to discharge existing debts and mortgages against the property, be sure to verify whether you will have to pay early discharge fees. In the offer, the buyer may also request that you take back a mortgage. If you are retired and you are trading down to something smaller, you may want to take back a mortgage and enjoy the resulting income. On the other hand, if you are trading up, you may not be interested in this option because you may need the funds for a bigger down payment. Conditions: Conditions on financing are generally quite short and, as a seller, you will want to know if the buyers will be able to get the necessary financing before you accept their offer. You may be better off with an offer that is slightly less in price but has fewer restrictive conditions. Items included in the sale: Buyers may wish to include certain chattels in the sale of your home -- like the antique crystal chandelier in the dining room, or the custom-made bookcase that fits perfectly between the living room windows. You may, however, have formed an emotional attachment to these items and be somewhat reluctant to include them in the transaction. If there are items you do not want included in the sale, it might be a good idea to remove them from sight before you put your home on the market. How a REALTOR® helps: Your REALTOR® has used his or her knowledge, training and expertise along with access to the Multiple Listing Service® to help find a possible buyer for your home. He or she will review all offers with you and help you to assess them objectively -- so be prepared to allot an adequate amount of time for this task. It will be up to you to decide whether you want to accept an offer, decline it altogether or make a counter-offer. This article was prepared by the Vancouver Island Real Estate Board“An Association of Realtors”, for the information and benefit of consumers.

YOUR OWN PRIVATE OASIS
Karen Roberts, SRES
Simpler Lifestyle for Retirees Have you been thinking of simplifying your lifestyle and moving to an easier home to care for? We are hosting a free very informative seminar on Tuesday, March 11th at 1:00 at the Parksville Travel Lodge (424 W. Island Hwy, Parksville) to help you explore the many housing options available in our community. Perhaps you have been thinking of downsizing to a smaller home, patio home or condo, independent seniors living or assisted living and simply do not know what is available. We want to help you explore your options so that you can make an informed decision when determining your next step. There will be a variety of guest speakers, professionals in their field to discuss everything from possible home choices (such as Emerald Estates & The Gardens), Karen’s Transitions Made Simple who specialize in senior’s relocation, to a financial professional who can provide financing options available. Most of us are not aware of the many affordable housing choices available and avoid making any decision as it may seem overwhelming. We are here to provide information, current market conditions, show you some of the choices and let you know there is help every step of the way. This event will be hosted by Karen Roberts (Seniors Real Estate Specialist) of Royal LePage Parksville/Qualicum Beach. Coffee & cookies will be served. Please call 250-248-7612 or e-mail sold@shaw.ca to confirm as seating is limited and we had a full house at our last seminar.
