Just read that article on a Realtor site and thought it was great. Never put a buyer in your car again! Fantastic idea! I am going to start strapping them to the roof right away! I drive an SUV with a roof rack and they will have plenty of room up there. Might get a tad cold from time to time, but I am thinking this will speed up the process of them buying a home. The article says that I can sell more houses in a shorter period of time, and I think after taking a buyer around to see homes while being strapped to the roof of my car will want them to look at less homes!
Don't you hate it when a buyer brings their kids to showings and you spend the whole time babysitting them so they don't break stuff? I will bet that buyers won't want to bring their kids when they are strapped to the roof, so that is another benefit. I will work out a system to replace the feedback I normally get between showings, however. If they tap once on the roof they liked the home they looked at, twice means no.
You know how first time buyers like to bring Dad along to kill the deal after showing 50 houses to the kids? After taking Dad to a couple of showings strapped to the roof of my car, I will bet he starts approving all the showings!
This may be the best idea I have ever heard. I can't believe I didn't try it sooner! Thank goodness for the good ideas on Realtor web sites!! I think I might even start picking up the home inspector and take him to the inspections as a show of good will! Great idea.
