Tip #2: Exposure to the public.
A few years ago, an agent could list your property, stick a sign in the yard, put the property in the MLS, and chances were great it would sell in anywhere from a day, to a week, to a couple of months. Well, those days are gone!
Your property needs to be exposed to the public in the most effective ways. The traditional efforts of real-estate agents (and by people trying to sell the home themselves) do not work effectively in most cases in a declining real-estate market.
Your property needs exposure to the public through the methods people REALLY use to search for homes today.

This is so true. I have found that now more than ever it is important to advertise to those who are beginning their search online as well as those who are searching through the homes magazines. No longer can we depend on the cooperative system of the mls but we need to venture out ourselves and find new ways to catch the buyers eye.
