State-of-the-Art Selling Strategies

Our Tri-Cities, TN real estate brokers stay on the cutting edge, integrating all of the latest marketing techniques used in the real estate industry. We advertise our property listings on all Major Real Estate Websites, Google, Social Media Platforms, and our newly redesigned Website. These paid traffic sources expose our listings to interested buyers, but they also increase search rankings and visibility due to the increased web traffic. In addition, each property is included in the area Multiple Listing Service (MLS), thereby making it available to all other area realtors and real estate agencies, improving exposure and maximizing awareness. We cover the costs to start a 'buzz' around your real estate assets, and as  leading Tri-Cities, TN Real Estate Brokers, we are known for our detailed, nearly poetic descriptions of our properties. They are always complemented with extensive, professional photographic images and video content (if available.) This is where we draw interest from the traffic we generate and maximize every impression. "Fixer-upper" investment opportunities to full-scale mansions, we provide real estate solutions for any piece of property including land and commercial properties. Collins & Co. knows what it takes to make your listing stand out, and we believe that all properties are special. Each deserves to be advertised and promoted in a way that maximizes the benefits each property has to offer. That's our commitment to real estate sellers, and we are highly dedicated and motivated in that undertaking.

Collins & Co. Realtors and Auctioneers keep up-to-date on all available financing opportunities available to our home buyers.
