Marketing with Heather & Lay
  • paragraph

    image cannot be displayed

    We know that marketing is not a one-size-fits-all approach and that some homes respond better to a more modern approach, whereas others are often about keeping those conversations going with our customer database. We always have people waiting for the right home, maintaining a dialogue with us, so being ready to pair your property with the perfect person is a big part of what we do. It really is who we know as well as what we know.

    Advertising

    We work with the usual channels - Rightmove, Zoopla, Prime location, social media, email marketing, advertising and our central office window to showcase your property but we also have a dedicated sales team, on the phone and sending out exclusive video tours and property sneak previews to potential buyers. Rest assured; we will be marketing your property before it officially goes to market. We consider our marketing an ongoing evolution, something we are working on every day. We promise not to simply put a sign up and forget about you.

    We believe in relationship marketing. Creating an initial buzz before you officially launch to market, then creating a launch campaign but also focusing on long-tail - maintaining the momentum in our marketing efforts and coming up with innovative ways to make your property the talk of the town. Not that most of our properties make it to long-tail status as we have such an active pool of customers awaiting a property - perhaps exactly like the one you're selling.

    Marketing always starts with a conversation. We will give you honest advice on pitching your price and the approach that we plan to take and are happy to share our knowledge and expertise at no cost to you. So, whether you're ready to sell or simply considering the possibility, we would love to look at your property and tell you what we would do to stand you apart in the current property market.

      A first Class Service
      Dear John We are writing to thank you, and your team, for the professionalism, commitment and support provided throughout our sale. The service was exceptional, never standard, the envy of your would be competitors. The degree of commitment has been exemplary with everyone, front and back office staff, going that extra mile; a genuine "can do", capable attitude. In fact, a first class (A1) service from the lead Estate Agency - not just in Falmouth but the Cornish Peninsula. As to personalities, perhaps the most telling comment that we can make is that you are too nice to be Estate Agents! We are sure, too, that there cant be many instances where Agents become regarded and trusted, as friends! It must be pleasing to you that the team work so exceedingly well together and we must also say that Jill's ability to keep track of everything and the guidance that she provides, to clients and staff, is exemplary. Thank You.Mr and Mrs Swindell

      Trust worthy and supportive
      We would certainly use Heather and Lay again, both for selling and for letting given their knowledge of the local market. We would also have them as our number one contact if we were looking to buy a property and would recommend them to others. Heather and Lay have helped to dispel the negativity that often exists around their profession! Not only are they professional, knowledgeable, efficient and friendly, but also trust worthy and supportive. Very many thanks to Craig, David and the rest of the team at Heather and Lay Mrs Harper

When you need the professionals, go to the professionals..Mrs M Mendes
