Preparing advertising copy.
Tips about filling out our forms:
Property Type:
The rest of the form is normal real estate information. However, our form is more buyer oriented than any you have used in the past.
We deliberately left out room sizes to create a forced point of contact.
Price is entered near the bottom of the form as $700000.00 not as $700,000.00.
At the bottom of the form Below PRICE is an area called Publishing Description. Leave that area blank. We fill that information in for the search engines.
We check the ads several times a day to approve them for posting 9AM-6PM M-F. Once the ad has been posted we check it to be sure it is showing. You may log in anytime to change copy or photographs.
Testing the AD.
Receiving Email from your log home for sale ad.

How to place your Personal Photo on the Ad:
