I’ll pre-market your home

October 21, 2017

While the professional photos are being edited, I’ll market your home to other REALTORS® before it’s even on the market (what’s often referred to as a “hip pocket listing”) by completing the below tasks. We’ll discuss which tactics make the most sense for your property and situation:

Advertise your home to Shawnee-area agents as a pocket listing. This is a great way to expose your home to top REALTORS® for their buyers to learn about it before going live on the market
Send Just Listed e-cards to every REALTOR® in the area advertising your home as a new listing
Conduct a Tuesday broker open house for area REALTORS®
Schedule and advertise our first public preview open house to take place the Sunday after your listing goes live in the MLS
Install a Coming Soon For Sale sign in your yard
Have a landing page on SoldonShawnee.com shown on the yard sign to passersby for additional information
Put a bluetooth lockbox on your property for tracked showings

Generally the above takes 24-48 hours. After that, as soon as the photos are back from the photographer, your property will go live in the MLS and syndicated websites!

Questions? Call me at (405) 585-6580 or email Steve@Soldonshawnee.com.

“Couldn’t speak higher of him.”

Steve is literally the greatest human on the planet. Our house was so tricky to sell and he fought long and hard to make it happen. He never gave up on us or made us feel like we were a “problem child”. Couldn’t speak higher of him, he’s a pro!”

“You will never feel lost in the process!”

Steve went above and beyond to get us into our new home. We were working on a tight timeline and knew buying a foreclosure would be a tough task, everything appeared to be great until it wasn't. Steve ensured us everything would work out and sure enough after countless hours of work and tracking down answers from the seller, Steve was able to get us to closing. Steve does a great job of communicating, you will never feel lost in the process! So thankful we found Steve!

“Steve goes above and beyond for his clients.”

I really did not consider any other Realtor. Steve is ethical, compassionate, interested in doing the best for his clients, and that was exactly what I experienced. He was wonderful at keeping me up to date as things developed and making sure I understood the minutia of the process as well as the overall big picture. He was always encouraging through every step of the process.

I have had nothing but positive experiences with Steve selling my property. The initial offer was received just slightly over a month after listing. Every aspect of the sale was carried out well in every detail. As I had already moved out of state, Steve was very aware of everything that implied and I really can’t imagine having a better Realtor.

Based on my experience, Steve goes above and beyond for his clients. I am happy to recommend Steve Reese without any reservations. He is an expert on follow-through with every imaginable detail.

He also was indispensable in putting me in touch with an excellent Realtor in the city to which I was moving.

Two words “ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!”

I contacted the real estate company and drew a winning lottery ticket by Steve answering the phone. There is no doubt in my mind that Steve goes above and beyond for his clients. From the moment that Steve answered the phone to present date, Steve has been a broker that has my best interest in mind. Steve is extremely knowledgeable and explains the entire process in a way that is easy to understand. Steve made me feel comfortable and secure during the entirety of the real estate transaction. While everyone has a busy schedule, Steve always makes time to help with any query or concern. Aside from being the best real estate broker I have ever met, Steve has become a dear and trusted friend. I have been spouting Steve’s praises to everyone I know. Even my 76 year old father, who is so hard to please, thinks Steve is the cat’s meow. If there is an award for the best real estate broker, Steve needs to be the recipient. Steve made the purchase of my office building an exciting adventure with low stress and plenty of laughs. I count myself so lucky to have Steve as a friend and I look forward to continuing our friendship for many years to come.

“Knowledgeable, approachable, and easily reachable”

As a first-time home buyer, I was a bit hesitant and nervous about the home-buying process. I am so thankful that I happened to find Steve Reese! I cannot say enough good things about him—he was knowledgeable, approachable, and easily reachable (very important for those frantic calls/text messages about negotiations, inspections, etc.). His familiarity with the area and local contacts helped to make the moving process smoother even after closing. I would highly recommend Steve to anyone looking for a home in the Shawnee area, and I will be working with him again if I am ever selling/buying in the future.

“He updated me every step of the way.”

I was a first-time home seller and had no idea what I was doing. From day one until closing, Steve Reese explained everything so that I could understand it. He stayed in constant contact with me and updated me every step of the way. He made it a very easy process for me. Within days of putting my house on the market, Steve Reese showed the house about 5 times and had 2 offers. If I ever buy or sell a house, I will definitely use Steve Reese. Thank you for everything!

“Professionalism, knowledge, and genuine personal service”

My wife and I started our search for a second home with another area Realtor and quickly realized that we were dealing with a part-time Realtor. I started searching and found a Realtor with an impressive list of accomplishments. I found Steve Reese and am grateful that I choose him.

I gave Steve a list of what I was looking for and he went to work immediately. I had 5 houses in mind, and Steve lined up a weekend (we are from the Dallas area) that would allow us to view each home. The visits were well planned and Steve even had a house he wanted us to see that was not on our list. WOW, he was spot on. It is like he was reading our mind. We viewed the house and seriously had trouble focusing on the remaining 2 homes on the list because we had just seen the home we wanted.

We stayed the night with my son in Shawnee and all 3 agreed this was the home we wanted. We put a contract on it, got a counter and bought the home. Steve was an excellent choice and everything went so smoothly that we had the keys in 3 short weeks. He was in touch with us every day during the process.

If you want professionalism, knowledge, and genuine personal service, I beg you to call Steve. I would use him again without hesitation!
