After Thanksgiving how about a Black Friday for Real Estate?

If you're an inhabitant of any state of the union, you'd have to be living under a rock to not know the day after Thanksgiving is a day of deals, deals, deals. Store owners and retail companies make a nice chunk of cash on that day alone.

So it got me thinking yesterday that perhaps now is the time to institute a Black Friday for Real Estate. Some of you may be in the red for the year and this would give you an opportunity to get into the black and end the year 2010 with a bang.

Black Friday

In keeping with the retail store advertisements, I am suggesting the following ...

1. Buy One Get One Free - know anybody with more than one property to sell? (Yeah, me too. Lots.) Suggest a BOGO to them. Why the heck not. What can it hurt?

2. Buy One Get One Half Off - see above

3. If a buyer writes an offer on a property between the hours of 4am and 6am, they will receive 25% off the list price. Between 6am and 8am the reduction is 10%. (If they actually camp outside the home overnight to be the first in line, they will receive an additional 10% off.)

4. If the line of buyers does not stampede and cause death to one of their own kind they each will receive a home warranty.

5. Sellers agreeing to any of the above incentives will receive a FREE turkey.

In keeping with the trend of online shopping, I'd also suggest the following ...

6. Offer all homes in your inventory for list prices of $5000 if they purchase online. Then apply a shipping and handling charge of close to whatever the original list price actually is. For example, you have a lovely 3 bdrm/2 bath home with a finished basement on the market for $99,000. (Toledo OH market, obviously.) They can buy it for $5000, but the shipping and handling charge is $94,000.

In this market we have to think out of the box, so get cracking, time's a-wastin'. Black Friday is only 5 days away!

Now excuse me while I purchase online a ShamWow for only $1.95 (S&H $495, but it's Buy One Get Free if I click the purchase button within the next 3 seconds.)

Drastic times call for drastic measures, right?
