Marketing Your Property To Unleash Its Fullest Potential
Using our creative marketing angles, we are sure to impress home buyers
With many properties being marketed, the need to attract potential buyers fast is of utmost importance. We have developed creative marketing techniques to ensure that the listed property appeals and captures the attention of genuine buyers.
Upon a seller agreeing to list with us, we will immediately start the process of decluttering and staging the property. After these steps have been completed, we engage professional photography and produce a video walk through of the property.
With the final marketing assets in hand, we will launch a comprehensive marketing campaign across digital and traditional channels to ensure that the property is marketed efficiently and reaches interested buyers.
We create maximum exposure on major portals and platforms
Creating maximum outreach to a wider range of audience
By leveraging on the reach of the major property portals like PropertyGuru, 99.co, EdgeProp and SRX, maximum exposure of the marketed property is achieved. The property is marketed on these platforms using the marketing assets that we had produced through photography and videography.
In addition, when the property listing is strategically drafted, which will increase the opportunity for the property to appear in a buyer's filters and shortlists. Hence, through tapping on the property portals and their respective tools, we achieve maximum exposure for the listing.

Adding Value to Buyers with The Propel Method
Using Data, Research, Financial Evaluation, Layout and Unit Selection for Potential Capital Appreciation
We have developed a Signature Approach, The Propel Method to help buyers purchase a home that meets their needs, while providing high capital appreciation opportunities. The signature approach utilises a combination of 3 factors to determine a purchase.
Data and Research of properties are analysed extensively to shortlist possible properties. There are multiple sources of data from PropNex, SLA, URA and third party applications, that are used to perform the analysis.
Clients' financial evaluation is an integral part of the signature approach. As everyone has different financial needs and situations, due diligence needs to be exercised in determining the financials of every client.
Lastly, unit selections at projects is key in determining the potential upside of the property. There a number of factors that involve the selection of a unit that can yield a potentially higher capital appreciation.
Guiding Clients in Making Prudent Decisions
