Marketing is one of my passions. I read about it, study it, and take action on it. I stay on the cutting edge of real estate marketing as I think every Professional Jacksonville Realtor should. One of the biggest key ingredients in any successful marketing project is knowing your target customer.
Who will Buy your Jacksonville Home? Key points to consider:
- Average age in Jacksonville is 33 Years old. (Gen-X)
- 41% of all buyers in 2008 were First Time Home Buyers. (Majority are Gen-X & Gen-Y)
- $8000 Tax Credit for First Timers in 2009
- Many up-sizers and down-sizers are currently stuck
Based on the info above, you can guess where I’m going with this. The majority of the Buyers for 2009 homes in Jacksonville will be First Time Home Buyers, and the majority of First Time Home Buyers are Gen-X or Gen-Y.
When you are ready to sell your home, make sure your Jacksonville Realtor has a Marketing and Selling Plan that works AND he knows how to market to potential First Time Home Buyers.
