Click here for larger photoThe Zander's Yard Sign - At first glance, the sign on your front lawn seems like nothing more than a place to display the real estate company's name and phone number. With most real estate companies, opportunities to tell potential buyers about your home are lost everyday because they only show an office number. Many of today's buyers are reluctant to call the real estate office just to get the price. The hassle of dealing with the all-too-common "pushy" agent often outweighs the buyers desire to know the price. Our toll-free recordings provide an easy way to hear about the home and neighborhood (including the price!) as well as the opportunity to receive additional information about the home through their home or office fax machine.

An option at the end of the recording allows a buyer to enter their home or office fax number and within seconds, the fax brochure is on its way.


Our colorful brochureOur Color Brochure - Each of our properties display an 8-page brochure highlighting the homes features and location amenities. The brochures include: full color photos of both exterior and interior views, features and improvements of the home, highlights of the neighborhood’s amenities, a map showing proximity to schools, parks, shopping and transportation, and a newspaper article written about the neighborhood. The brochures are available to buyers viewing the home to take with them. After a long day of viewing homes, keeping them straight can be impossible. Our colorful brochure is there to tell them all they’d like to know about your home and neighborhood.

Tom & Mary's unique CD home tour

360-degree Virtual Tour - One of our most recent additions to our marketing is our online virtual tour. For each property we market, we produce a series of panoramic photographs taken with a special lens that seem as though you are in the center of the room. You can pan around the room, zoom in or out, and flip through the entire series of unique photos.







Sample of our Realtor.com homes

Your Home On The Internet - The Internet is a popular resource for today's home buyers. The computer literate shoppers of today have no trouble navigating the Internet. Virtually every home listed with a real estate company in the Chicago area can be found on the Internet. Realtor.com is the most traveled real estate website on the Internet.

The Internet surpasses newspaper advertising by including a color photo, specifications including room dimensions, and much more information than would fit in a typical classified ad. Community and school information are also easily accessible on the Internet. This information is available to the consumer 24 hours per day. Even at 2:00 a.m., they can search, view and even print information on any of these properties on their home or office computer. Our homes are available at all of the popular websites. Unlike most Realtors, our homes available through www.realtor.com include 5 additional color photos and a link to our own website where even more photos and information can be found.


Tom & Mary's mini feature signs
Mini Feature Signs -
As a buyer walks through your home, the mini feature signs point out important features of your home that may not be obvious during a casual walk-through. Your home will have maximum value to a buyer who knows all the good points of your home while they are still there.



Tom & Mary's utility tagsUtility Tags - All of the major utility controls are labeled with our unique tags. Knowing where the main water shut-off or hot water heater gas supply is located is important in the event of an emergency. Labeling these critical utility locations for potential buyers results in a feeling of organization and attention to detail.




Tom & Mary's home business cards
"Your Home" Business Cards - Even the small details can make a difference. Your home's brochures are accompanied by our custom property business cards in the event the buyer or Realtor have interest. Rather than use our regular business cards, we create special cards with your homes photo and basic information.
