Open Houses are tough enough

Open houses this weekend were for diehards only.  With the temps around 7 degrees and the winds reaching 50 mph it was numbing to be out in the cold.  I held two open houses with little turn out.  Real Estate is tough enough in this market and the winter chill doesn't help.  Of course I had one where I had to place 5 directional signs.  With the wind whipping and the ice on the roads I thought I was either going to blow away or be frozen in place.  On the bright side of things and let this be a lesson to those realtors who stayed home, I did enjoyed one lonely visitor who I now working with as a client.  February is the best month for open houses, do the wisely.
