Some of the benefits of Avalar Austin Real Estate
- SUPPORT:
- OUR OWNERS: Kay DaSilva, Michael Brown, Michael DaSilva, Marcus Cox and Cindi Leech are the owners and are readily available to help with contracts, listings, buyer agreements, marketing and business plans, technology, etc. We also offer to go over the material you put together and provide feedback. Michael Brown is the designated broker, but Michael D, Kay and Cindi are also brokers, and Marcus is a member of the Board of Directors at ABOR. Additionally, Kay is the Regional Director for the Lone Star Chapter of CRS (Certified Residential Specialists). CRS is widely considered the premier designation available to REALTORS.
- OUR OFFICE MANAGERS are very experienced in serving REALTORS and are available to provide support and help as needed. They also are available to train you on our tools and help you in your business.
- OUR OFFICES: 4 offices
(3 in Austin, 1 in Dripping Springs) that you are welcome to use at any time to
meet with clients or stop in when you need to use the equipment. Each
office is keyed the same, with the same copier codes and wi-fi codes.
- TOOLS:
- Free "Virtual tours". We have a marketing program that lets you create them at no cost. It is very easy to use and you can use it for all kinds of things, not just home tours. We also have a strong discount through our vendor for photography, e-flyers, printed materials/mail-outs, etc.
- Free Showcase enhancements on Realtor.com. The normal, individual Realtor.com cost is based on your number of listings and ranges from $199 to $3,100 annually. Without it, you have 4 pictures of the house and a plain look. With the Showcase listing, you can add up to 25 pictures, scrolling text, the ability to advertise open houses and expanded descriptive text to each of your listings. Also, a large ad with your picture and contact information will be shown next to your listing details.
- Email campaigns/newsletters. We provide
the campaigns and help you set this up. This means that as long as you
have contacts with email addresses in your database, a monthly email
will be sent out with your name on it. There are many different types of
email campaigns and you can easily create your own. The database also
provides an easy way to manage your contacts. Again, we help you with
this, every step of the way.
- Professional hardback listing book that we create and customize for you. We can also put
these presentations online, so they’re available to your prospects to
review prior to a face-to-face meeting.
- No cost "For Sale" yard signs. Please just return them to the office when you don’t need them.
- Regular Training: We have weekly training meetings and we train on topics that are important to busy REALTORS - not just "Contracts 101".
- Big Screens: Each office has a large screen
monitor in the conference room that can be used while meeting with
clients or as a media room to give virtual home tours.
- We create brochures/marketing materials: We can create the flyers for your
listings. You provide pictures, content and quantities, then you
review/approve and the flyers are printed. There is no fee for creating the flyer, or for the black &
white copies.
- Second Homes: We have a website to promote
the second home/vacation home market in the Texas Hill Country &
Texas Coast. Our agents provide content for their specialty areas, and
there are more territories available – this is a fantastic listing tool for
developers/builders!
- New Homes: Our New Homes magazine is another ideal listing tool for builders. We are revamping it in future issues to encompass resale homes and second homes.
- Come on in! No desk fees if you want to have a dedicated spot in the office.
- Phone Duty: 4-hour phone duty shifts and you don't have to be at the office because we’ll forward the calls to your cell phone. You also do not have to do property tours in order to get phone duty. The only thing you have to do is sign up for them each month during the office meeting.
The bottom line is that Avalar Austin seeks to serve our agents. There are less than 100 agents throughout the four Austin locations, which is by design – we really want to be sure we never dilute our resources and cause our agents to ever feel like they're just a number.
