SuttonRealty Advantage
With SuttonRealty, I’m able to maximize every
opportunity to sell your home — anytime, anywhere.
Prospective buyers get a text or email
response within 5 minutes of their initial
inquiry on your property.
I receive additional “intelligence” with their
inquiry — what homes they viewed, which
photos they viewed the most, if they were
looking for mortgage information, did they
view the virtual tour.
This quick response technology gives us a
strategic advantage since buyers quickly
move on if they don’t get a timely response.
If I am personally unavailable, leads are
broadcasted to our team for immediate
follow-up.
