This past weekend, I was driving down Estero Blvd on Fort Myers Beach on my way to Publix and noticed a couple of Open House signs. The official temp was about 95 but with humidity, it felt like 110. I wondered who would be tempted to leave their comfortable air conditioning to see a home for sale, and what, if anything, could tempt people to come to an Open House. Cold water just won't be sufficient and there's too much liability involved in serving cold beer. Then, I thought, with temps in the 90's and humidty through the roof, what would temp people more than a swim in the pool. The agent would need his assistant (or friend) to act a lifeguard, of course, but adveristing a dip in the pool just may make a summer Open House a success.
And, if your Open House home doesn't have a pool, you may want to wait a a few weeks until the humidity dips.
