Testimonials
It was such a great experience working with Stine and her team. Every step of the process, with preparing our home for photos, listing, closing, and rent back was truly enjoyable. I would highly recommend Stine for any Real Estate needs. She is very knowledgeable of the market conditions, excellent communication with timely updates throughout the whole process, and a vast network buyers/sellers to make sure you are successful even in competitive market conditions.
Stine is a go getter and not afraid to take on any challenge. She leverages her time to get as much done as quickly as possible. Her attitude is upbeat, and her confidence is contagious. She managed to pull off a major clean out and touch up of our large property resulting in its listing prior to the target date, after which she worked tirelessly booking tours and making sure all the paperwork was in order. Stine is dedicated, caring, supportive and knowledgeable and her role was pivotal in our successful sale. My husband and I highly recommend her as a realtor and are thankful for her diligence and great communication, which enabled us to feel that we were in very capable hands.
Stine is very professional and personable. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home! She made the whole process very straightforward for us and was truly invested in the outcome of the sale of our home. Great communication an an overall amazing experience from start to finish!

Working with a professional buyer’s agent can provide a host of benefits you may not have considered. Together, we can collaborate to showcase your home in its best light to a broader pool of qualified buyers, ensuring a more efficient contractto-close process for everyone involved.

More Qualified Buyers
The guidance and expertise of a buyer's agent increase the likelihood that you are moving forward with qualified buyers who are informed and ready to transact. What does this mean? It translates to a lower potential for the deal to fall apart and a more efficient, painless sales process for you

The Power of Photography
Beautiful photography is one of the most powerful tools for selling your home. Compass uses bestin-class photographers to show your home in its best light, make a positive first impression, and attract more buyers.
Pricing Your Property to Maximize Buyer Activity
Timing of Buyer Activity
A property receives the most traffic within the first few weeks of hitting the market. It is important to get the price right in order to gain the attention of interested buyers and maximize your home's position in the market.
Attracting Buyers Using Competitive Pricing
Using competitive analysis, market research, and Compass’ suite of AI-powered tools, we recommend a price for your property to generate the most activity and offers early on before buyers move on to newer listings.
Sell Your Home, Keep Your Privacy
Private Exclusives with Compass
A private exclusive listing is an off-market home that can be shared by a Compass agent directly with their colleagues and their buyers. Property details aren’t disseminated widely and won’t appear on public home search websites. This allows you to control what information is shared about you and your home while still getting exposure to top agents at Compass.
Discretion
Privacy is the ultimate commodity and the decision to sell your home is a personal one.
Flexibility
Decide when to share details about your home, including price, more broadly on your own timing.
Quality
Retain exposure to Compass agents, including premium placement on our agent facing platform.
Value
Get the best offer by testing the market privately to gather key insights without your listing getting stale.
Reach more prospective buyers with intelligent digital advertising.
By leveraging Compass’ digital advertising tools and partnerships across social media and advertising throughout your listing process, we can generate demand to sell your home faster, and we meet potential buyers where they are, online.
Proprietary Targeting Optimized Performance
Compass helps generate buyer interest by using proprietary data to serve ads to Facebook and Instagram users.
Compass tracks and measures the results of every campaign which allows for continued optimization.

Marketing your home
At The Oldham Group, we put an emphasis on modern marketing, taking a multi-pronged approach to the digital promotion of your property. This starts with a professional property website to properly showcase your home to interested buyers online.
The fist thing we do before marketing is Identify the buyer persona. For example, a Silicon Valley engineer with a net worth of $3M who likes mountain biking and comic-con. Then, we create marketing that will attract that buyer persona to your lising.
Enhanced Targeting allows us to target consumers based on the sites they visit and the apps installed on their phone. By narrowing down to profession-specific sies and apps, we can effectively target any profession or interest you can imagine. 2701 Witheridge Road
The property website includes photos, videos, virtual tours, listing details and has the ability to submit contact information as an interested buyer.
We run website traffic ads though Facebook and Instagram to drive visitors to the page. These ads are live for the duration of the listing and are updated with status changes such as “Coming Soon,” “Just Listed,” and “Price Reduction.
We also target the listing area through email campaigns. These emails are sent for each status change on your listing and are full of information for potential buyers. When sending these emails, we create a list of potential leads in the area through a mix of home buyers in our team database as well as local homeowner leads from a third party real estate farming tool.
To top off our digital listing campaign, we create and publish Google Display and Search advertisements. Very similar to the social media ads, these content pieces are posted for status changes. They drive traffc to the property website as all of the digital.
GOOGLE ADS
Engaging Open Houses
Whether it be in-person or a dynamic virtual tour, open houses are one of the most important ways buyers connect with your home.

Assessing Our Strategy and Monitoring the Market
Using proprietary tools such as Collections and Insights, we keep you informed of market conditions and traffic to your property.
Insights Collections
Collections allows us to have a collaborative conversation on your home selling process with instant updates on comparable listings and access to insider knowledge previously only available to the agent community.
Insights is a detailed, custom dashboard that allows us to assess the impact of our online marketing campaigns in real time. By capturing this data, we are able to further target our ads to buyers most interested in your home.
Placing your property where your buyers are searching.
Once your home is listed on the MLS, it will be syndicated to some of the top real estate platforms domestically and in 60+ countries globally. This will allow us to get maximum exposure for your home.
