Hello Everyone,

Well, In Spokane Washington we have been getting drowned in snow over the last few weeks and I drive by homes for sale and there is no access to the homes and you can barely see the signs. So what can you do to get your homes sold in the winter. Here are 3 things you can do to get your home sold in the winter.

1. Keep walkways shoveled. If people can't get into the home they will not show it. When all the other homes are sitting covered with snow, get out and shovel your listings or have the homeowners do it. Remember this is just one more way to beat up on the competition that may not be managing their listings in the winter.

2. Keep the sign visible. Go out and dust off and reposition your signs higher so they are visable, when everything is white a well placed sign really pops. You may or may not want to keep brochures in the box in snowy weather, if you do make sure there is a path shoveled to the box so people can get to them. No one is going to trek in 3 feet of snow to get a flyer.

3. Freshen Up Internet Tours. People are still looking online when the weather gets worse they will pre shop online until the weather gets better. Take a moment and make sure your pictures are great and freshen up your tours with more info.

Do these three things and you will help your home sell first when buyers come out of the snow.
