When you have a fabulous listing to share, it's easy to feel super inspired.🙌🏾
But keep the caps lock off when you're writing descriptions.

Using all caps stems from the old days of print when real estate professionals were fighting to get readers’ eyes. Today, that's no longer necessary. Plus, all caps can come across as shouting. 📣 No one wants that! Get this description right - it is often a buyer's first impression of the property. ✔

Local REALTORS® embrace technology and innovation

Local REALTORS® embrace technology and innovation, empowering them to provide the best service to their clients. ⁣

Members of the Lakelands Association of REALTORS® use Sentrilock® electronic lockboxes when showing properties. ⁣
⁣
The technology also allows agents to use touch ID and facial recognition technology to open the lockbox, which means less contact.⁣
⁣
The supporting software and app are especially beneficial to those in the Lakelands districts who are selling their second home or cottage from a remote location. ⁣
⁣
Trust local, hire local for the best in service and innovation.

🏡 This summer, we saw an uptick in demand for properties in the Lakelands Association of REALTORS® regions. As we continue into fall, this interest remains consistent. Showcase the beautiful properties in this region to their full potential!⁣
⁣
Embrace the cozy vibes of the season when you're staging homes to sell. Neutral colours for larger areas are best to help prospective buyers easily see themselves in the space. However, adding warm accents in cinnamon, rust, browns and golds can make the home feel more welcoming in the fall.⁣
⁣
🍂 Consider these colours for decor pieces, pillows and blankets.

💨Life is hectic!

🗓You have enough to do managing your work, daily errands, and regular life demands.

🏡 When you're in the market for a new home or cottage, the last thing you want to do is waste time working with a person who is unfamiliar with the region you're looking to invest in.

There are countless benefits to using a local REALTOR®. Saving yourself time is definitely one of them! ⏰

When you're a seasoned REALTOR®, you eventually become so familiar with technical terminology and insider info that it's easy to forget that these acronyms and terms aren't everyday language. 🗣

When you're writing a property description, remember that many potential buyers won't know that a "Wic"is a walk-in closet, or that "Osp" means that off-street parking is available.

It's best to write in a way that leaves very few questions unanswered. This description is often a buyer's first impression of the property, so it's important to get it right. ✔

If anything is certain in our field in 2020, it's that real estate and technology are intertwined.👩🏾‍💻⁣

This week's tech term represents this fusion.⁣
⁣
Proptech is an overall catch term that combines ‘property’ with ‘technology,’ which can encompass anything from energy-efficient smart buildings that use intelligent sensors for heating and lighting to virtual reality (VR) property tours and artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots. It also spans the gamut from residential and commercial real estate to home design and property management.⁣
