Get the right exposure for your property

Increased exposure will put your property in front of the greatest number of potential buyers. The larger your buyer pool, the higher the likelihood you will receive multiple offers.

At Tremains, we want to be proud of every sale result. Achieving the best price is central to this goal. The most important marketing period is the first few weeks of the campaign. Active buyers seek out ‘fresh’ listings, and in the digital age buyers become aware of a new listing very quickly, sometimes within hours of it going live. This means that the wave of buyers "in the market" will hit within the first one to two weeks.

Our statistics show that once a buyer discounts a property, they rarely reconsider. We utilise powerful marketing strategies to generate maximum market coverage targeted at genuine buyers, through a variety of selected mediums and sales techniques. That includes an individual sales consultant's active database and the power of the entire Tremains database.

So, let’s get you the best possible price for your home by making sure your property is seen in all the right places by the right people and at the right time.

You only get one chance to make a first impression. So make it a lasting one.

Professional photography and videography

Property Photography

You only get one chance to make a first impression. Potential buyers can view images of your home at any time of the day, so it's important we have high quality, focused and clean photographs.

Why? To entice viewers to continue looking through the full portfolio of your property and to engage them enough to add your open home into their calendar. Professional photography is an absolute must when it comes to getting the best result for your property.

Property Video

Video has rapidly become "the" essential marketing tool. We aim to structure, develop and create affordable marketing videos that will instantly capture the attention of your target audience, while maximising your digital reach.

Your social media presence

Today social media is an essential part of any marketing strategy. Tremains has a strong social presence and profiling your property correctly means more exposure to potential buyers. We believe it is important to be seen on as many platforms as possible because each one attracts a different target audience, which opens up your viewing opportunities. We like to focus our attention on the platforms below:

Facebook

With over 1.3 billion members worldwide, Facebook remains the largest social network. Even 65% of adults over the age of 65 use Facebook. This platform has the unique ability to reach your ideal buyer by targeting age, location, behaviour and interests.

Instagram

Everything offered by Instagram is well suited for real estate marketing: its photo and video based content formats make it easy to showcase properties; location data and geo-targeting; numbering more than 1 billion monthly active users enables reach across many demographics and geographies; advertising platform provides sophisticated campaign targeting options.

Paid Social Advertising

In a pay-to-play game, social media advertising is a must in order to reach the right target audience, at the right time. The key to success is understanding how to build audiences, target specific users, retarget to certain groups and measure the success.

Google Display Network Advertising

The Google Display Network is designed to help you find the right audience by strategically displaying your ad to potential customers at the right place and the right time. This means we can put your ads in front of active and passive buyers, which is key in our overall marketing strategy.
