Our caravans worth your time?

la quinta homes for saleI absolutely support office caravans for new listings, here in the Palm Springs Valley. Why not? I always gain some important feedback for my sellers. We all know that the first 30 days of the listing are critical. Why not get as many fresh eyeballs, especially educated realtor eyeballs, into your home? First impressions are huge for potential buyers. I love to watch my fellow agents first impressions of my listings… It helps me! And then I can help my seller… It's a win-win!

I have found in my listing presentations that some sellers don't like the idea of a bunch of people trooping through their home .However, once I explain the value of the "troops" experience, they generally come around.  I tried to attend as many caravans as I can, even if I don't have a new listing. I have also found it to be a fantastic way to learn the inventory of a particular area .  That is always a valuable thing!

Kimberly, did you really mean Our - or did you mean Are in your blog title?  If you meant Are, you should probably change it before too many people wake up and read your post.  Good post, just a funny title.

I'm with Roger on the title. On the other hand, caravans are a complete waste of time unless you like being there for moral support.

I was wondering the Are / Our thing myself. But caravans, whether they are yours or somebody elses, what the hey, yeah, go caravan. It's helpful in any market, whether you represent sellers or buyers. You can't adequately represent a home if you don't know the neighborhood and its inventory.
