With properties staying on the market longer and Sellers getting more and more anxious, REALTORS are trying everything to get activity on their listings and getting them as much exposure as possible. REALTOR OR BROKER OPEN HOUSES are held every week just about in our area and there seems to be lots of Multiple Open Houses. Below are the Different types of REALTOR OPEN HOUSES, Types of Food and Types of Door Prizes.
Feel Free to add to this list and share your ideas!!!
TYPES OF REALTOR OPEN HOUSES:
Your Individual Listing including Lunch: Traditionally, you would send out a Flyer to all the local agents announcing the date and time of your Listing being shown and Lunch and Beverages being included.
Group of Open Houses within your Company: Only Agents in your company having several REALTOR OPEN HOUSES to ALL Real Estate Companies.
Group of Open Houses with Several Companies: Different Agents from Different Companies opening anywhere from 2 or more houses to all real estate firms. Usually close together to accommodate multiple open houses.
The Staging Open House: Doing Open houses to show off a newly staged home.
DIFFERENT TYPES OF FOOD:
The Appetizer: From light to heavy hors d oeuvres
The Tapa Tour: Small Plates of different foods at each home. (I like this one)
THE CHILLI CONTEST OR OTHER FOOD CONTEST: Having different agents do a different Chilli or soup or something in a competition open house.
The Luncheon: Everything from Subway Subs to Catered Affairs. Multiple Open Houses allows each property to offer a different part of the meal, from Appetizers to Dessert.

The Cheese and wine: From Boones Farm to Extaordinary Wine Tastings and Cheese Pairings

Useful REALTOR GADGETS: From Signs, Info Boxes, and more.
Gift Cards: Gas cards are real popular along with restaurants
Free Advertising: Sometimes you can get sponsors from advertizers to give away (real helpful in todays market)
