accelerated marketing: Accelerated Marketing...a Definition! - 08/15/08 02:22 AM
On Sunday, I received a call from Nancy Dunham, a reporter at the Baltimore Examiner  interested in my special listing 2349 Southfield Ct. Finksburg, Maryland 21048   She was looking for a  good home to feature in her story about auctions.  Nancy was on a deadline and needed all the information by that evening.  I was available  to provide the copy.  
                                     
                                         
The above story  ran in the paper yesterday and even though I have not seen the actual paper (the news box was empty at the corner) I have gotten calls and emails with questions and interest in seeing the home. This is  the best … (17 comments)

accelerated marketing: Accelerated Marketing - aka Auction - Your Seller Needs Options! - 08/08/08 01:42 AM
 
In today's market, a professional real estate agent owes it to the seller to consider and present all options for selling a property, especially when it has been on the market for a while. Accelerated Marketing can be one of those options.
There's a popular perception that "Auction" = "Distressed Property." That's a holdover from the Depression and the downturn of the 1980's, but no more true today than the idea that direct mail is the only way to advertise.
In reality, "Auction" can mean "Non-contingent,  NO closing costs, NO commissions, NO inspections!" Doesn't that sound better to the seller?

accelerated marketing: On TRAC! On the Radio Sunday 12 Noon - 07/05/08 02:37 AM

Let's all get on TRAC !
Sunday June 6th, Margaret Rome will be hosting the live radio program All About Real Estate.
How many Active Rainers will be listening?
Paul Sobwick from  www.TRACauctions.com will be my guest. You might remember that Paul, he's the good looking one, auctioned my Historic Church Are You Waiting for Success?  last year along with many other properties.

accelerated marketing: Are You Waiting for Success? - 03/25/08 09:16 AM
"In this business, success doesn't come to you, you have to go to "SUCCESS".  I've said that many times in my real estate career, especially when talking with new agents. It's never been more true than in today's market.
I had the perfect  lesson last year  selling an historic church that had been on the market for two years, not the whole time with me. It had been used most recently as home, studio, and gallery by a ceramic artist. (Of course I loved that since I was also a ceramic artist in a previous career.) The adjacent cemetery was an issue; … (29 comments)

accelerated marketing: Accelerated Marketing in a Decelerated Market - 01/11/08 08:29 AM
Is there anyone out there who hasn't felt the change? That engine that was roaring ever onward and upward ran out of gas, and now we're coasting. Okay, we have a different market, but that doesn't mean we can't still get people to look at and buy houses.
You might remember my earlier experience with what I call "Accelerated Marketing." Yes, it's an auction, but it's more than that. Case in point – yesterday on Stevenson Road in Baltimore. We decided to apply Accelerated Marketing to this wonderful stone rancher, along with five other properties, all scheduled for January 10. January … (17 comments)

accelerated marketing: Accelerated Marketing on a Perfect Day - 09/23/07 04:19 AM
The day dawned cool and bright – perfect for the accelerated marketing event (some know it as an auction) of an historic church property belonging to the gifted artist and my friend, Tatiana. As the temperature slowly climbed and the sun shone through the tall trees surrounding the buildings, people gathered for the 11:00 a.m. event. The auctioneers from Auction Brokers set up a tent and had music playing while people wandered the grounds and explored the church building, modern addition, and kiln building.
Then it was time to start. People stood around, some in the sun, some in the shade under … (17 comments)
