Staying positive in a down market

You know things are bad when you offer free food and no one comes...................

Had an open house this weekend. Got two people. Are open houses a waste of time? We even cooked hot dogs, had cookies, candy, chips, drink, and got nothing.

I have 13 buyers still "looking" I wish I had a hose to spray them off the fence! This is nuts. I know things are moving because Im really busy but this is crazy.

Yeah, I hear things are not good in Florida. You would think buyers would be flocking! Hang in there!

I decided some time ago not to do any more open houses because the results aren't worth the effort. I know some will disagree with me, but that's my position.

Hey Guys...

We've noticed that there are less and less folks driving around looking at homes... No one can afford the price of gas.
