Need your advice on marketing properties

Posted

I need to sell my 2 rental properties in Charleston.

My husband recently passed away and I am overwhelmed dealing with our business, our home and settling out his affairs. If I can get these two house sold, it will be one thing not weighing on me.

The houses have been in the hands of realtors in Charleston for three years (at different times), with not a nibble. So I'm taking on the task to see what I can do. Here's my plan (retired marketing professor method) and I would love your feedback.

1. I plan to hire a firm to do a direct marketing campaign to real estate investors - a series of 6 postcard mailings.

2. I will post on various REI Facebook Groups in the area and national groups.

3. I'll create a videos about the properties noting the pros and cons of each one and post it on our company web site.

4. And of course I'll use Bigger Pockets.

Have I missed anything? Is anything not worth the trouble? Suggestions and ideas welcome.

@Jobie DeVinney-Walsh

We can definitely find a solution! Perhaps an auction service? Perhaps a fellow investor or myself would be interested in buying "AS-IS"

Regardless, there are several options and YOU have the leverage in this market!!! Please give me a call when you get a chance (number is in your inbox) 

All the best for you in this difficult time.
