* When advertising your home, there are three essentials for a great auction advertisement. The first is a headline that grabs your audience's attention. When writing your headline, use the best, most exciting features of your home in the headline, such as "Fantastic Ocean Views!" or " City Centre Attraction" You want your headline to be interesting enough to catch the potential home buyer's attention. You want them to read your advertisement about your home. By gaining their interest they will be interested enough to see your home before they visit anyone else's.Who knows they may even click 'Buy it Now !"

* Another element is to highlight the USP ( unique selling point) of your home, such as an ocean view, recently remodeled or within walking distance of schools. You are trying to create a lifestyle in the mind of your potential buyer. This will give them even more reason to want to look at your home before making a final purchase. Make sure you describe your home in detail, create a detailed visual picture in your reader's mind.

* A good end line will maintain your buyer's interest and make them get in touch. Appeal to the buyer's main interest in owning your home- is it a bargain, an investment or simply a great place to live! Use:" Fantastic investment opportunity!" or "The best place on earth to live! Call now !" Now you have your advertisement completed place the advertisement in your local newspaper and in your chosen auction site.

* Another good method of advertising is "Open House". You have your house already to show;it looks immaculate,its sparkling clean, the repairs have been made and the clutter cleared, so advertise your "open house". Create colorful,eye grabbing flyers so everyone who attends your open house will get a flyer before they leave. The flyers describe the your home in detail and talk about price. Distribute them locally and make sure that all your contact details such as phone, email and web address are included.

Schedule your "open house" for a weekend afternoon between 2 and 5 o'clock in the afternoon. This is when you're most likely to get most visitors.Check your calendar to make sure that your "Open House" is not competing with any kind of local events, sports playoffs, or religious events.. An "open house" is a good method of gaining trust ;offer it even if you are selling by auction. It shows that you have nothing to hide and you have everything to gain and nothing to lose.

* You will want to have a guest book so you can get the names and addresses of every person who attends. If you can, make sure to take notes, and jot down every positive impression and comment made by those who attended. You will want to be able to keep in touch with people who show an interest. This could be especially important if you reduce your asking price or change the terms of the sale later on. During the "Open House", be prepared to make them aware of the schools in the area.

Depending on the number of your visitors you may be lucky and get someone to buy on the spot! Make sure you have plenty of blank sales contracts-download from your computer or buy at any local office supply store.

To attract more visitors and if you don't mind the attention put an "Open House" sign in your front yard and attach balloons ! If your street is quiet try using some signs on prominent corners with arrows pointing to your home.

If you're trying to sell your home through auction make sure you use as many photos as possible, give buyers as much information as possible but make them relevant. I've seen too many auctions where sellers have taken pictures of anything but their home.. Potential buyers are not interested in your dog or your child or twenty photos of your child's favorite toy! List photos which show how great your views are, how much space you've got, what a fantastic neighbourhood you're lucky enough to live in.

Do this and watch your home sell!
