Professional Sales and Property Management advice.
Hodges has survived and thrived for more than a century by providing service backed up by traditional values of caring and personal service on one hand and leading edge ideas, technology and comprehensive communications on the other. Our directors not only manage the day to day operations and plan for the future; each of them is a real estate agent. Each of them is acutely aware that our business is built around buying and selling and managing property for our valued clients and each play a hands on role in this endeavour.
Along with our experienced sales team, they plan the best strategies to market and sell property that meets and exceeds the expectations of our clients. Each of them live the proud and long traditions of the Hodges name. They are acutely aware of the people who went before them and built that tradition and they are committed to building on that tradition of which they are now the stewards.
Hodges can boast that its auctions bring in the best prices for our vendors. The directors would have it no other way. They are as competitive as well as professional and will build on the theatre and drama of an auction to elicit that final bid. Extensive training with world class auctioneers ensures this.They have built friendships with many clients that have endured over many years and they cherish that personal link. Excellence in real estate is their passion; it is in their blood. Most importantly, they also know that if they do not maintain and build on our past, they will be selling our customers short. They are committed to never letting this happen and you will reap the rewards of their beliefs.
Marketing
Individual property web sites
Your individual property web site www.yourpropertyaddress.com provides instant access to a detailed brochure on your property.It also displays the benefits of the area in which it is located. By going directly to your property, internet clutter and competing properties are avoided. With more and more people (87% - Nielsen statistics) using the internet as their primary source for searching for property, combined with the growing practice of ‘Google-ing’ or ‘Yahoo-ing’ the address of a property, this marketing tool is extremely cost effective and captures a wider range of potential purchasers.
Property Videos
With time spent viewing videos on the internet almost doubling in the last 12 months, Hodges has embraced this marketing opportunity and recommends property videos. These are video tours of the home which take the viewer throughout the home highlighting all the key features of the property and the surround amenities.
Social Networking Sites
Social networking and interactive internet sites such as Facebook, Twitter and Youtube are growing at a staggering rate; in fact the latest statistics show that the use of social networking sites is now greater than email. There are just as many people utilising these communication sites on a daily basis in the 35-49 demographic as there are in the 18-34 demographic. Hodges is at the forefront in utilising these sites to market our client’s properties to this most important market segment.
