Real Estate Keywords

By
Real Estate Agent with Seaport Real Estate Group

Since our new site has gone live we keep hearing great feedback about our Keyword Search! People love the ability to be specific with their search criteria. We understand that many of our clients have a specific need and are only looking for a certain type of property.  Our keyword search is one way we are making your home/property search an enjoyable and simplified process. If you are looking for a property in only one of two towns, and one that must be a horse property, why would you sift through 36 properties in those towns when you really only have to look at two?

To help simplify your search find “Search By Keyword” under the “Search Listings” pull-down tab.

Examples of Common Searches:

GOLF ~ Have you ever imagined your back yard extending directly into, like say the 11th fairway of a professionally manicured golf course? So close, that the landscaping crew is now improving the exterior of your lawn with their precise cuts and attention to detail? Close enough that you can grab your 7-iron, walk out your back French doors and play a quick par 4? Type “Golf “ and find homes that will make your dream a reality!

Equestrian ~ “Horse Property” or simply “horse,” will also be adequate keywords to try when looking for an Equestrian Property.  A home that will fulfill all the needs of a horse owner can be found, but obviously there are not an abundance of them out there in the marketplace. Weed out the properties off the top that don’t have a chance of housing your horse!

Waterfront ~ This is one of the top searches on seaportre.com and continues to grow every month! You can also search specifically for “Waterfront Properties” under the “Search Listings” tab.

Masons Island ~ Simply type in “Masons Island” and you will find all the Masons Island Homes currently for sale. In addition to the residential properties this key word search can be used to find the 16 remaining lots/land on the Island. Masons Island is like no other part of Mystic Country and increasing demand makes this a constant search item.

Probate Search properties in a specific area that are subject to court approval or are that fall under probate. Typically properties in probate will require some elbow grease but can yield a great value. Also, type “short-sale” or “foreclosure” to find properties that are typically being searched for by our bargain hunters.

Welcome to AR!  Great blog, too.  I've found that the less wordy the better, and bullet points work well with readers.  Keep up the good writing!
