BASIC MARKETING: MLS, SIGNS & FLYERS
Using specific keywords, targeted locations, and search behavior, we craft custom Google Pay-Per-Click campaigns to drive potential buyers to your home’s listing. This helps your listing stand out to those who may be most interested.
We understand buyers’ search preferences can vary and don’t rely on just our website to promote your listing. We provide exposure on Zillow, one of the most used real estate search websites in the country, to ensure your home is seen by a wide audience.
PAID TARGETED ADVERTISING ON GOOGLE EXPOSURE ON ZILLOW
There’s no better way to sell your home than to have interested buyers walk through the front door. We advertise and promote your home to potential buyers and their agents in advance to ensure successful Open Houses.
Not all agents will have clients interested in your home. We specifically target the top agents bringing buyers to your neighborhood and your price point. Our focused communication means that agents pay attention when they hear from us.
Professionally designed and commercially printed, our Chinowth & Cohen property flyers allow buyers to take away a favorable representation of your home after every showing.
DISTINCTIVE PROFESSIONAL FLYERS
We maintain an internal Client Relationship Management database consisting of tens of thousands of potential buyers. We will match your property to specific buyers based on location, price and size and contact them directly about your listing.
Most buyers work with an agent in the purchase of their home, so generating excitement within the Broker Community is critical to the success of your sale. By showcasing your property to outside Brokers, we build a sales team of agents who want to sell your property.
By participating in our local MLS, your home will reach all agents in the area as well as show on other Brokerage websites. This increases exposure, and allows us to better cooperate with other agents who may have the perfect buyer for your home.
We host a website specifically for your property, where potential buyers can follow the status, share with friends, request showings and much more. This encourages engagement with your home online and showcases your property individually.
WEBSITE SPECIFIC TO YOUR PROPERTY
If your home and desired selling strategy requires more from us, we can do it! Every home sale is different, and we can’t wait to create the perfect plan for you.
Elite TV features your property on Sunday at 10 AM on the CW or streaming from ccoklahoma.com. Our professionally produced 30 minute show features area homes with video and voice over highlighting your property’s features.
Elite Magazine is produced by Chinowth & Cohen’s marketing team and features every active listing offered to the public. This FREE publication is available at our offices and area QuikTrip, CVS and Reasor’s locations.
ELITE TV - YOUR HOME IS THE STAR! ELITE MAGAZINE
Many man hours go into the marketing of each and every Chinowth & Cohen listing. No agent can do it alone. We have a team of twelve full-time marketing staff who execute the many steps necessary to deliver our marketing services to you.
TEAM APPROACH
First impressions matter in the sale of your home. Our clean and professional signs let potential buyers know you are working with a reputable firm in the sale of your home without detracting from the curb appeal of the property.
LUXURY YARD AND POST SIGN
Northeastern Oklahoma’s leading newspaper source for Real Estate. Your property can be promoted in this beautiful fullcolor tabloid available in Saturday’s edition of Tulsa World. Ads and Open House listings are created by our in-house marketing team.
Real estate postcards are one of the most effective ways to keep the public and potential buyers up to date on your property! Postcards are a great way to showcase your home to neighbors.
95% of home buyers look online for properties during the home buying process. How your home looks online is critical to getting buyers through the door for showings. If the photos online don’t “wow” them, they may never come, which is why Chinowth & Cohen has strict professional guidelines for all listings.
PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY
Potential buyers want information at the tip of their fingers. Our Text Code sends them your property details instantly and allows me to follow up on their inquiry afterwards.
Varied ads in these highly read publications are a vital part of a home marketing campaign: Tulsa People, Oklahoma Magazine, Homes & Land, Tulsa World Magazine and more.
OUTSIDE PUBLICATIONS
Advertising in local weekly publications is an inexpensive, yet effective way to reach a wide audience. The Owasso Reporter, Skiatook Journal, Sand Springs Leader and Wagoner County America are very popular in our market.

Pricing Your Home at Fair Market Value
IF THE ASKING PRICE IS:
THE PROPERTY APPEALS TO:
If the asking price of a property increases beyond fair market value, the market of potential buyers decreases dramatically.
Property Interest Level
30 days
60 days
90 days
Your home receives the most exposure to the greatest number of potential buyers within the first 14-30 days on the market. Pricing at fair market value from the beginning ensures the highest number of interested buyers see the home. As time passes, perceived value decreases, resulting in a lower sales price.

ASK ME FOR A COMPARATIVE MARKETING ANALYSIS!
A comparative marketing analysis (CMA) is a document that pulls statistics on homes similar to yours that will help us have a better idea of what your home is worth in the current market. A CMA includes the follow types of homes:
Sold in the Recent Past: This shows us what buyers in this market have actually paid for properties similar to yours.
Currently on the Market: These are properties that will be competing with yours for the attention of available buyers.
YOUR HOME’S UNIQUE APPEAL:
Failed to Sell:
Understanding why these properties did not sell can help avoid disappointment in the marketing of your property.
Each property has special features that interest buyers. Whether you realize it or not, you are an expert on your home and can inform me about your property’s value better than anyone else!
What do you feel are the most appealing features of your property?
What features does your property have that differentiate it from other similar properties? __________
What changes or enhancements would you suggest to make to your property? ___________________
What do you regard as the most attractive features of the surrounding neighborhood?
Do you have any special terms or conditions regarding the sale of your property I should be aware of (e.g., items of personal property to be excluded, etc.)? ______________________________________
Are you aware of any problems or concerns regarding the property or the neighborhood that will need to be disclosed to prospective buyers? __________________________________________________
THE BUYING ATMOSPHERE
When it comes time to show your property, here are some suggestions that will create a smooth and successful process!
» Maintain the home in ready-to-show condition with beds made, clutter removed, dishes put away and so forth. Then, you’re always ready for a showing as soon as you get the phone call.
» Showcase your home as if you are receiving guests. Turn on lights or open drapes, place flowers in vases, hang your best towels, light a fire in the fireplace if it’s cold outside, and play soft background music.
» During a showing, try to step out for a cup of coffee or run a few errands. The potential buyer will feel more relaxed if allowed to view your home without any distractions.
» Make sure your pets are confined to a safe and out of the way place.
» In some cases, silence can be golden. If you are present for the showing, it’s best to reserve comments until the buyer has left your home.
» For safety purposes, it’s wise to show the home to a buyer only if the associate working with them is present. You should also put away your valuable items, such as jewelry and collectibles.
ALWAYS, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CALL ME ANY TIME IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, CONCERNS, IDEAS OR SUGGESTIONS!
