Here in Central Ohio we've been getting into that wonderful wintery January weather...when cars slide around, it's too cold to move, the world is covered in ice-and-snow lasagna, and you promise to yourself that you'll never complain about showing homes in 99 degree heat again. You try to remember that the sun wasn't a figment of your imagination...
One of the little perks of winter is the frozen lockbox. In today's morning meeting we discussed this fun little obstacle, when one agent recounted a recent story. She told us how she finally got into one of her listings which she wanted to prep ahead of time for an impending showing.
Invoking the name of MacGyver, she explained that she thought of slipping a wool glove over the box for a bit while she scraped off the walk and gave things a few minutes to thaw. It worked -- and everyone lived happily ever after.
Now, not that I would want anyone to try selling us more gadgets and widgets for our businesses...but that could lead to an interesting product idea: Lockbox Sox!
(Oh sure, there are other names we could use, but that one rhymes.)
Happy New Year everyone!
