Shipman Partners Launches New Websites
April 27th, 2010 After 15 years combined in the real estate industry, Allen & Melissa Shipman launched Shipman Partners, LLC in February of 2010. It has been an exciting and fast paced 3 months since our launch and we are excited about the future. Having closed or put under contract almost $2M worth of sales, we are off to a fantastic start and things will be getting better very soon. Our websites are being reworked from the ground up and should be launched the first week of May 2010. These sites include:
With loads of new enhancements for buyers and sellers, we couldn’t be happier with the product and what it will do to enable clients and customers on their journey to buy or sell their home.
Having spent time as agents with two of Austin’s most recognized Brokerage names (Moreland Properties and Keller Williams) we knew what clients wanted from a Brokerage and what they expected from their agents. As we build Shipman Partners into a local brand name, we are taking the best of those two business models and enabling it with new technology to make our clients experience the best it can be. Here are just a few of the technology tools we have implemented for our clients:
1.Online Electronic Signatures – never chase down a fax machine or scanner again (much less drive it across town). Simply log in to the website and click the signature location and you are done.
2.Text Messaging for Listings – in addition to flyers for your listing, prospective buyers can text your listing code from the sign and get an instant E-Flyer on their mobile phone with interior pictures, price, and marketing information. We also capture their number so that we can follow up with them and see if they have any questions or would like to schedule a showing.
3.V-Flyers – Online property flyers that market your listing to hundreds of websites across the web so that buyers have easy access to your home listing from their phone, computer, email, or favorite website.
4.State of the art buyers search tools – With MLS finder enabled map searches and hundreds of pre-configured searches that buyers will be able to easily and efficiently search the Austin MLS to find their perfect dream home. From this tool, buyers can Email the listing to friends, Tweet or Facebook about it, or save their searches and favorites for later viewing.
5.Tech SavvyAgents – Call us, Fax us, Text us, Email us, Tweet us, Facebook us, LinkedIn us, Blog Post us, Hi5 us, Facebook us, Yahoo us, Google us, IM us, Youtube us, or just meet us at Austin Java for a cup of joe and conversation. However you like to communicate, we’ve got you covered. If we’re awake, you can reach us. Go ahead, give it a try. We run 5 computers, 1 server, 2 scanners, 2 printers, 3 smart phones, 1 virtual phone, 1 virtual office, 2 home offices, 2 GPS’s, 5 digital cameras, 1 HD Camcorder, over 20 camera lenses, 4 flashes, and every software application you can think of. Whatever your tech needs are, we’ve got you covered.
In addition to technology, you can expect the best service in the industry.
Results – We don’t make excuses, we make it happen. We are action oriented agents that know results speak for themselves. We work so swiftly and efficiently you may find yourself in a whirlwind of activity needing to slow down and take a breath….don’t worry, we can do that to.
Negotiations, Negotiations, Negotiations – When it comes time to work out the numbers, we’ve got you covered with over 30 years of combined experience in contract negotiations. In 2009, we out negotiated that average Austin agent by a factor of 2X. That’s money in your packet, and that’s what we do.
Come visit us at Shipman Partners and see what the competition is missing without us.
