Marketing your home well takes more than a sign in the yard and a listing on the MLS. A successful sale needs a strategic plan that gets your home in front of the right buyers and leads to the best possible outcome. With decades of experience, I, Robbie English, REALTOR and Broker® at Uncommon Realty, work with my team to give clients that kind of plan. We know the local market well enough to give you a real advantage in how your home gets marketed.
A Plan Tailored to Your Home
Every home is different, and so is the marketing plan I build around it. I offer customized, hands-on service for every client, and I keep privacy, security, and efficiency in mind throughout the process. My years of full-time experience and advanced education in real estate give me a clear read on what buyers respond to and how the regional market moves.
Whether you’re selling a downtown Austin condo or a sprawling Hill Country estate, I build a marketing strategy around what makes your specific home stand out to the right buyers.
The Multiple Listing Service (MLS)
Your home goes on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) right away — the network member brokers use to update available listings daily. I personally oversee the photos and description that go up, since that’s what buyers see first.
The MLS feeds into most of the real estate websites buyers actually use, so this is where the bulk of your home’s visibility comes from. Your home isn’t just on the market — it’s actively getting in front of buyers who are searching for something like it.
Marketing Online
Most buyers start looking for homes online today, so every listing I take on gets featured prominently there. Depending on what a seller wants, listings generally show up under Featured Listings on my website as well as every local site that pulls from the MLS. If a seller prefers an off-market option or a quieter, flex-style listing instead, I can set that up too.
Generally, I use a mix of:
- Professional Photography & Videography – Quality visuals are what get a buyer to stop scrolling. Every listing gets professional photos, and 3D tours or video where they help.
- Search Engine Optimization (SEO) – Strategic keyword placement so buyers searching for homes like yours actually find them online.
- Social Media Advertising – Targeted campaigns on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn aimed at the buyers most likely to want your home.
- Email Campaigns – Your listing goes out to buyers and agents who’ve already shown interest in properties like yours.
Thinking About Selling?
A strong online presence gets your home in front of serious buyers fast, which is what drives competitive offers.
Traditional Marketing Still Matters
Digital marketing does most of the heavy lifting today, but the traditional methods still earn their place.
For Sale Signs
As soon as your home is listed, a “For Sale” sign goes up, along with a brochure box where it makes sense. That way anyone driving by can get details on the spot.
Photo Flyers & Marketing Brochures
First impressions matter, and a printed flyer gives buyers something to hold onto after they leave. As soon as I have a signed listing agreement, I get a professional color flyer designed and printed, and I make sure flyers are on hand at every open house for my listings.
Open Houses & Private Showings
A well-planned open house can bring in a wave of interested buyers, but only if people know about it — I promote every open house through social media, email, and local advertising ahead of time. For private showings, I make sure your home is presented at its best, since a good showing is often what turns a look into an offer.
Negotiation: Turning Interest Into Results
Getting buyers interested is only half the job. Once offers start coming in, skilled negotiation is what turns that interest into a good outcome. I’ve spent decades negotiating real estate deals, and my goal is always the best terms for you — whether that’s price, timeline, or how contingencies get handled.
