Your dog can cost you $10,000 or $20,000 dollars!

"No showings during the week because of the dog." Are you nuts? I had some great cash buyers from out of town who gave me one day's notice to set up some showings. The house that met their needs exactly could not be shown because the owners were at work and their dog was home alone. Those sellers have no idea that they missed the perfect potential buyers! I showed the buyers 7 other houses and offered to preview the house w/ the dog and send photos, but their lives are complicated and they could not come back.  Pay a neighbor, a friend, a dog sitter to wrangle Fido for last minute showings. Ask your agent. I'd do it myself because I know how critical each showing can be. Otherwise, your dog is going to cost you because your house will sit on the market longer. As each month passes, you will lose $10,000.
