Ok you decided to sell your house, ask professional help, followed all suggestion, so you decluttered your home and did a great home staging, now that your house is on the market , realtor suggested you to have at least one Open house day...in that day you will be away from your home, so your Ears will not hear critics....
But I must to say not all realtors are prepared to this kind of event, usually what do you imagine at open house? Nice place, good food and drinks, plus materials and last but not least realtor business card....well I can say that I attended some Open house where there was, absolutely nothing and if you are doing a serious research, you aren't seeing only one house at time, but several so taking informations (aka bringing depliants and business card) are really helpful....Maybe that could be your ideal house, but in the same week you visited other 5 and you have informations about alls except It, maybe you have a great memory, but I tend to have materials and realtors usually manages more than one house so is better also for them have information and do a quickly connection....
If you ever watched an episode of Million dollar property, have you saw that best day for Open house is friday, well usually because on saturday in the Us realtors don't work, while in Italy saturday morning is a working day for realtors and could be best deal for open house day....however a tips that I gave and followed is don't do long Open house days, a couple of hours are good,...Most people have free mornings so also couple can attend It together, slowly time
Isn't necessary to be great chef to prepare a table with food, drinks and materials, if you look on web you can find simply ideas like these:
About home you must to prepare a depliant of one paper with most interesting rooms, important details, price and your contacts,there is a very nice site that sells these items...
for example these re two interesting one paper description of great homes:
Realtor must to be recognizable, so She/He can wear jeans but with a nice blazer, casual-elegant look, must to be kindle and have a nice smile, I understood that a smile can open millions of doors, finger crossed, deep breath and Asap your house will be SOLD!!!
Hai ragione, non esce essere degli chef, basta un pizzico di inventiva e di buona volontà! Ottimi consigli!

già a volte la buona volontà è quello che manca!
EliminaThis is really solid advice! The food spreads are pretty elaborate that you shared but if you think about it the homeowner and realtor both have a big vested interest in getting the home sold, so it can be just a small investment that pays off big time.
RispondiEliminaIsn't so complicated, you must to invest some time to cut veggies and cheese, but with cracker is a good combo, and yes food and drinks make people more relazed:P
