How Great Listing Photography (And The NY Times) Helped Sell This Fairmont Home
The motto of the New York Times, the most well-known newspaper in the United States, is, "All the news that's fit to print." Thanks to the know-how of our broker, the Times recently saw fit to print a Heritage Real Estate listing from one of our great Fairmont homes for sale.
So how did our listing get this prestigious placement? The story illustrates the power of quality visuals and skillful marketing in selling real estate.
Setting the Stage
Broker Heather Neill received a listing for a charming 1927 Tudor Revival house in Fairmont. Knowing the importance of strong visual content in online marketing, Heather followed her customary practice of filming a live video walk-through, posting an immersive 3-D walk-through, and taking carefully composed still photos.
Before long, Heather's postings went viral. One posting alone received upwards of 5,300 views with 1,900 likes. Even more impressive are the 2,700 shares that gave the listing a greater visibility than was ever possible before the days of digital marketing.

Tell and Sell: What Morgantown Sellers Need to Know About Disclosures
Sellers in Morgantown are required to make a number of disclosures to prospective buyers. These disclosures help protect buyers and ensure that they know precisely what they're buying before they sign the contract. In West Virginia, the definition of real estate includes the land and anything that is attached. This includes the home, outbuildings, and equipment. It also covers any resources under the land including oil, gas, and minerals. When you add your property to the list of Morgantown homes for sale, it's vital that you understand your disclosure responsibilities as a seller so that you don't find yourself neck-deep in legal problems later on.
Disclosure Statements
West Virginia law requires sellers to provide buyers with a disclosure statement before the prospective buyer agrees to the purchase. These disclosures include:
- Structural Defects
Most structural defects are discovered during the home inspection, and sellers and buyers alike should thoroughly read the inspection report once it's delivered. Potential defects sellers must disclose include damaged roofing structures, problems with walls and flooring, damaged or unsafe foundations, and any water damage within the home. West Virginia statutes also require disclosure of soil conditions including any known contamination or problems with shifting soil that can negatively impact foundations, grading, or general safety on the property.
