An open house at 6 am?

By
Real Estate Agent with Respect Realty

This is no joke.  This will be a newbie experience for me - doing an open house at 6 am this Weds morning when most people are sleeping or eating breakfast.  Sounds crazy?

One of my responsibilities as a REO listing agent is to hold open houses for the listings that have not sold and go to auction.  This auction company Williams & Williams is starting the auction at 8 am this Wednesday at our listing on Morning View in Maricopa, AZ.  (Ironic that the name of the home contains  morning since that is the time of the auction).  They require us to hold the listings open from 6-8 am so that the auction attendees can take one last look at the homes they will be bidding on.

It will be interesting to see if anyone shows up at 6 am.  I am sure the neighbors will wonder what is going on with these foreclosed homes.  It is a good thing that I am a morning person!

Barbie:  Is that before 7?  Is it light yet? Are you serving breakfast!?  It is amazing what we do to service our clients - and even more amazing what our asset managers and auction companies think we should be doing ....  Good luck!  .... Oh wait, it's too late you for to write on this ... well then, Good Morning!

Amazing!  I don't think our sheriff opens the homes up at all.  Good for the sheriff, but wow that is hard on you, Barbie!    Best wishes and don't forget to bring the coffee!
