Seller Services

When selling your home, the differences between brokerage offices might not be immediately apparent. One listing presentation looks much like the next. What sets an agent or broker apart? Several factors stand out.

Hire a Broker Who Is an Expert at Digital Marketing

The broker of Haute Homes has over 20 years of experience in the web space as an internet producer for major search engines, and is a well-known enterprise-level SEO expert. Your listing won't just go live — it will be optimized to be found.

The Importance of Listing Your House Right — The First Time

The first time an agent sees your listing it will likely be in a "hotlist" sent out the day your listing posts to the MLS. That agent decides which homes their buyers will preview. In today's market, MLS data is a mouse-click away. Buyers are taking home-finding largely into their own hands — and they're seeing your home on Zillow and Redfin before they ever contact an agent.

Numerous listings go live with poor photographs, missing virtual tours, and incomplete data. If a buyer is filtering by specific criteria, you want to be in those results — accurately and compellingly.

The 2-Week Window

You have approximately two weeks to get your house seen by all active buyers in the market at the time of listing. It's a very short window. Haute Homes will get your property data posted quickly and accurately — the first time.

REALTOR MLS Syndication Means Your Home Is Seen Nationally

With REALTOR association syndication, your property will appear on:

Linda Caplinger, marketing manager and broker of record at HauteHomes.com, started her real estate career at age 11 — when she decided it was high time her mother sold their 1950s mid-century modern home in Los Angeles.

Linda attended Rio Hondo College, serving as president of the Honor Society, Alpha Gamma Sigma, and graduated with Honors. She then attended the University of California, Irvine on a full scholarship, completing her Bachelor's in Anthropology and a near-second Baccalaureate in Economics.

Starting in 1993, Linda obtained her salesperson license and began with Coldwell Banker in the Inland Empire. In 2004, she sat for the Broker's exam and founded Haute Homes of Los Gatos.

With her broker's license, Linda set out to revolutionize real estate with her internet marketing prowess. She enjoys helping buyers find that special home as much as she relishes innovative marketing ideas — and has a deep appreciation for Craftsman, Spanish Revival, and Mid-Century Modern architecture.

"Dear Linda, thank you very much for all the information you provided concerning our site on Redondo Mesa Road. Being a REALTOR in Albuquerque for over 15 years, I recognize your desire to serve and assist the general public with real estate inquiries. In my travels throughout the western region for the past two years, I have not found many REALTORs willing to help based on the possibility of future business. I appreciate your dedication and it restores my faith in my fellow REALTOR."
— Michael A. Villella, Real Estate Consultant · Representing AT&T
