The Miltary Market
Do you live in a military community? There are 1.4 million military members on active duty and if you live in a military community about 33% of them will move this year. On average, every three to four years military families relocate, but for every one that moves out, someone else moves in. Housing is a #1 priority for a relocating family and you are in a position to help, if they know where to find you. These highly trained computer savvy professionals start searching for homes before they move so if you don't have a web presence or if your web site is buried in the many pages of Google, chances are you are missing out.
That is why we created Off-Base Housing.com. A place for military families and agents to meet. We offer home advertising, agent profiles and more. We do not collect referral fees, our site visitors are free to browse agent profiles and contact agents direct. This simple process has proven to be very effective, no one likes a middleman, and no one likes filling out online forms waiting for a someone to contact them back. At Off-Base Housing.com, agents contact info is right there on their profile page.
Military families make great leads. They move often. They know a lot of people that move often. They have steady incomes and can usually qualify when others can't with a VA loan.
We have an advantage over local agent websites and newspaper ads. Real estate agents must compete for their share of the military market, where we are in a better position to capture it. We make it easy on the member because they don't need to find an agent to find a home, but when they find the home they will find the agent. And only those that choose to participate will get the attention. I am confident that as we grow, we will be the number one place for military men and women to look for off-base housing, and we are providing a way for agents and property managers to tap into this market and find military renters and buyers. |
