There are many things to consider which are quite different from those when you sell a home in the city.  The Parker Team, experienced, licensed Realtors (also RESA certified), can help you navigate the landscape of selling your Muskoka  & Lake of Bays property.  See what sets us apart.

According to the National Association of Realtors December 2018 report, 88% of Buyers said that online websites were the most useful tool in their home search.  Among all age groups, a Buyers first step was typically to browse online. The typical Buyer looked at websites with photos, home listings and information about the buying process.  Broken down by age the search looks something like this:

Just as important as how prospective buyers search is what they are looking at when they are online.  According to the National Association of Realtors, photos and detailed information were most important , giving the prospective buyer an opportunity to narrow down their search from the comfort of the living room.

What does all this  mean to you when you sell your Muskoka & Lake of Bays property?

First you should note that The Parker Team keeps current in Buyers purchasing trends, and as such we strive to ensure that we market your property in the most efficient and effective method possible.  With today’s buyer beginning the property search and narrowing down the list of properties they wish to visit  from the comfort of their home, the value of online marketing and these first impressions cannot be overlooked.
