Marketing Tips for Selling Model Homes and Spec Homes

Whether sales agents are stationed at every model home or online consultants are waiting for inquiries, here are some basic ways to increase the number of potential home buyers that tour your model homes or spec houses.

Why You Don’t Need a Sales Agent on the Ground to Show and Sell Model Homes

Potential home buyers have the internet at their fingertips (literally!) and choose to find neighborhoods, floor plans, and prices online. But personal connections are still crucial to making sales, especially when it comes to big purchases like a home. Waiting to make contact with a home buyer can be risky, but here are some ways patience can pay off.

Manage Maintenance and Cleaning Crews for Model Homes and Spec Homes

Opening a model home or spec home to the public gives home builders an important opportunity to wow prospective home buyers. The appeal of the show home will hopefully turn them into leads, or even better, into owners. Remote access systems can help home builders manage cleaning and maintenance crews.

Enable Self-Guided Tours for Agentless Model and Spec Home Showings

One problem with trying to show a house is that most home buyers want to visit when it’s convenient for them. Giving access to tour model homes on their own time and at their own pace can create a more relaxed experience for home buyers.
