How to Master Your Property Marketing: A Guide for Sellers in Ruislip & Pinner
The Essential Basics: Photography, Floorplans & Portal Listings
Impressive Photography
First impressions sell homes. With most buyers deciding whether they like a property within seconds of seeing it online, high-quality professional photography is non-negotiable. Well-lit, composed images make a home stand out in a crowded market, attracting more interest and securing faster sales.
Floorplans Matter More Than Ever
Buyers want to visualise how they’ll live in a space, and a detailed floorplan helps them do just that. Listings with a clear, professional floorplan get up to 30% more engagement than those without. If your agent isn’t including one, you could be missing out on serious buyers.
Rightmove & Zoopla – The Digital Shop Window
With thousands of listings competing for attention, your property needs to shine. Yet many agents still get the basics wrong:
Poor-quality photos – Dark, cluttered images that don’t showcase the home’s best features.
No floorplan – Often due to a lack of investment or effort.
Generic descriptions – Copy-and-pasted from similar properties, failing to sell the lifestyle your home offers.
The Avocado Approach
At Avocado Property, we do things differently:
✔ High-impact professional photography to make your home look its best. ✔ Detailed, accurate floorplans to help buyers visualise the space. ✔ Engaging property descriptions focused on lifestyle, not just features – including our popular vendor’s view section.
A poorly marketed home won’t attract the right buyers, no matter how good it is. Getting the basics right is the foundation of a successful sale.
The Power of Off-Market Opportunities, Social Media & AI-Driven CRMs
Not every home needs to go straight onto Rightmove. Off-market promotion creates demand before a listing goes public, securing viewings from serious buyers first. This approach leads to faster sales at stronger prices while avoiding early overexposure.
Social Media: The Property Marketing Goldmine
Strategic targeting on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn can put a property in front of thousands of potential buyers, even those not actively searching.
At Avocado Property, we leverage:
#BeatThePortals Reels – Teaser videos generating early interest.
Targeted Ads – Reaching the right buyers before they even start their online search.
AI-Driven Buyer Matching
Our AI-powered CRM system proactively matches buyers with properties based on their preferences. Instead of waiting for someone to search online, we push listings to those most likely to move, using our Heads Up property alerts.
Why This Matters
Most agents rely solely on property portals. We combine off-market strategies, targeted social media ads, and AI-driven buyer matching to ensure maximum exposure before your home even hits Rightmove or Zoopla.
Presenter-Led Video Tours, Drone Footage & Buyer Experience
Video Sells Homes Faster
A presenter-led walkthrough gives buyers a real sense of space and lifestyle, helping them connect emotionally with the property. Listings with video tours receive 403% more enquiries than those without!
The Power of Drone Footage
🚁 Aerial shots showcase key features like gardens, nearby parks, and curb appeal, making a property even more desirable. Standing out is crucial in today’s competitive market.
Single Point of Contact for Buyers
Unlike traditional agents who pass buyers between multiple staff members, we offer a single, senior point of contact for better communication and a more seamless experience.
The Problem with Traditional Agents
❌ Outdated methods with no video content.
❌ Poor buyer communication leading to missed opportunities.
❌ A conveyor belt approach instead of a tailored marketing plan.
The Avocado Difference
🔥 We treat your property like a brand – using video, drone footage, and social engagement to drive maximum exposure beyond the property portals.
Buyers are 4x more likely to engage with video content than static images. If your agent isn’t using video, they’re not marketing your home to its full potential.
The Future of Property Marketing: Stand Out or Be Overlooked
The property market has evolved. Simply listing a home on Rightmove isn’t enough anymore.
Modern Property Marketing Needs:
✔ Strong branding – Recognisable, professional, and engaging.
✔ Creative content – Eye-catching videos, compelling descriptions, and high social engagement.
✔ Multi-platform exposure – Social media, Google Ads, email marketing, and advanced digital strategies.
The Avocado Property Approach
Many agents claim to be different but operate in the same outdated way.
At Avocado Property, we don’t just list homes – we create highly targeted marketing campaigns using storytelling, data-driven targeting, and maximum digital exposure.
The question is: Is your home getting the attention it deserves?
