The Selling Process

Real Estate marketing has changed dramatically since F.C. Tucker opened its doors in 1918. Marketing your home then simply meant sticking a sign in the yard and running a newspaper ad. Today things are quite different. Below are some of the services the agent will offer you during the selling process.
