HOME SELLERS:
We will market your home using some of the newest marketing tools available in the real estate industry. In addition to our www.CoastalVaHomeSales.com and Shaffer Realty sites, we also use Listing Booster and ListHub. The Listing Booster sign riders ensure your home is viewable by mobile text 24/7. This allows passers-by to enter the sign code assigned to your property from their smart phones. They will then have MLS access for property information, your Virtual Tour, your property Web Page and all of our contact information.
Not only will we list your home, our team will be working to locate qualified buyers. Listing Booster generates buyer lead capture. Each time the code is viewed, we will receive a text that allows us to contact that buyer lead immediately for follow-up. Do they have pre-approval from a reputable lender? Do they qualify to purchase your home? What is their move-in time frame? Do they want to view your property? As soon as a potential buyer shows interest in your property, we capture that lead!
Additionally, we use ListHub to market our property listings to 80+ websites and search engines. This includes today's leaders in Real Estate related searches such as Trulia, Zillow, Craigslist, Google, Facebook, Yahoo, AOL Real Estate, HGTV Front Door, HomeFinder, Homes.com and many others! When you list with us, you will have maximum internet and social media exposure.
Consult on Home Selling Tactics
Oftentimes, buyers don't visualize living in your home the way you do. We can make your home attractive to its ideal audience - which can help you get top dollar. Details such as staging the home, making repairs or minor improvements, or simply painting the walls and putting away family photos can be the difference between a home resting on the market and one that's SOLD fast.

Testimonials

-William Pitt, Client
"In a word EXELLENT! My friends and family told me that my first home purchase was going to be a bumpy ride, so I was told to "get ready." From my first phone call to the final signature I have to say that I have NO idea why my parent's closing was so troublesome. The staff at the Virginia Beach office did such an amazing job! All our questions were answered and I knew exactly what to expect for my closing. Patricia, Jarett and Joe took such wonderful care of my wife and I and I am so happy we closed with the team at Shaffer Title, Virginia Beach! When we decide to move up to a bigger house, we are going back to them! Thank you for being so wonderful!!! Phil Virginia Beach, VA"

"Military family. I first met Mister Darren at an open house, and he was exceptionally friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and kind. I told him that we were in the market to buy if we received orders to stay in Virginia Beach. He had perspective properties lined up for us to look at as soon as we received the official word that we were staying in VB. I can’t tell you how much precious time that he saved us during work-ups before a 7 month deployment. He knew we were on a short timeline, from start to finish 30 days. Probably something he would not like advertised, but if the circumstances dictate, he will do whatever it takes for you. He would always pick up the phone, drop whatever he was doing, and adjust his entire day to help us out. He even offered to help us move. He brought us gelato a month after the sale as a house warming present. He still keeps in contact to this day, and has truly become a friend. I assure you that you will not find another Realtor better than Mister Darren! "
