Hilton Head Real Estate Marketing Goes International

Be the first to comment on this post Categories: Market Trends and Information

The other day a client asked what we were doing to market our Hilton Head properties internationally.  The next day a buyer from Europe purchased one of my oceanfront listings and I quickly started researching ways that we have reached out to these buyers with our marketing.  I found that just in the last year we went international with our Multiple Listing Service and now reach out to international buyers with our listings promoted and published in six languages including French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish. Try it yourself and click here to search the Hilton Head MLS in the  language of your choice.   As well, I am a member to an international network of 35 countries, 17 time zones, 46 languages, and 15,000 communities through our association with Leading Real Estate Companies of the World.  Bottom line…we are going international in our marketing of our properties. If you would like to explore or marketing programs and go international with us just call direct at (843)842-0805 or email us anytime at islandrealtor@hargray.com.  Merci!
