Marketing ideas? Condos ?

Just listed this condo in the Cotton Mill Condos over the weekend. I was going to list it at 259k and then one came up just like it for 269k. We decided to go in at 267k and take a crack at a higher price. Mine is a little larger. My listing has a full commission, the other doesn't offer but a 2% commission.I figured everyone would look at each one if they are in the market for a 2/2 in the New Orleans Warehouse District. I am going to take better pictures for the mls which should be in our favor. We can adjust as the other one adjusts their price. Mine also has a flat screen TV which we are saving as a bargaining chip, its already installed. Told my client do not put it in the sale as things like this get lost. I am still looking for some unique way to advertise since there is no sign. Flyers or Postcards in the lobby? I have a full page in Homes and Land which we will feature it, and we do no newspaper ad. I will put it on craigs list!! Good response from Craigs list? Am I missing some ideas for condo promotion! I always give listing a full page on my site New Orleans Real Estate as a featured property. Below is a couple of shots.Will add more photos of the actual unit #349 in the Cotton Mill. Give me some ideas that I may be overlooking.

Good to see a cotton mill conversion from another area - I'm in Maine and we have some interesting conversions of big mills.
