OPEN HOUSES! They can be a great way to get some traffic moving or they can be a total waste of time. I think that when things are slow and you have a morning open it's a great way to work. Take your laptop, your cellphone and some things that you can do if nobody shows up. Then have an open house. If nobody stops by, you've had time to do some catching up so you've not lost anything and maybe people will come.
But the best way to do open houses is with groups. Buyers enjoy being able to see lots of properties in one day without having to make appointments and with no obligation. I'm happy that our local REALTOR association is planning, organizing and promoting our second annual showcase of homes. I just wish I had enough brokers to have every one of my listings open. It will be good.
Make plans to attend the Crystal Coast Showcase of Homes, March 28-29. For more info see below:
