A Blind Date

DATE MY HOUSE, that is going to be the headline for my brokerage ad in the newspaper for my open house. I spoke to one of my home sellor clients and she agreed to let us try a Home owner blind date. I have arranged to allow one young first time home buyer couple to look into spending the day and night at this home. We will provide dinner etc. I am looking forward to setting this up and see where it goes. We are going to pair this up with another marketing program I have learned to use....bridal shows. More on this later.

Interesting idea! I'd be interested in hearing how things go and whether or not the couple buys the home!

I will write reviews when the time comes, and the good thing is that it is a vacant but furnished (for staging purposes) house

Very interesting, completely outside of the box, I like it. You'll have to keep us posted.

i'M INTRIGUED...I'd still be concerned about theft. I know that may sound odd, but down here, vacant homes are prime fodder for thefts. Let us know how it goes.
