Tips for a Successful Open House

04-27-11

Here are some tips for a successful open house. Of course having the home priced correctly and spotless is the first step.

Internet advertising is not just the cheapest way to advertise, but the most effective. You can post in advance with room for all information about the home. Rather than a small add in a news paper that runs one morning. However the news paper seems to be effective in some areas.
Place Open House Signs. Use pointers at every corner of every street from a main road. Tie balloons to your sign.

Make sure the driveway is clear of cars, boats, RV's, bikes, etc.
Make sure all blinds and drapes are open to let in the light. Turn on all the lights in the house. You should do this for showings as well.

Do not use overpowering air fresheners. Better to go with something more natural, but not too strong. A batch of fresh baked cookies works great.

Color flyer's with the homes details, and mortgage information. Including tax information and school zones can be a good idea as well.

Refreshments are optional. For open houses held in summer months having bottled water available is a must. It also adds a little something to remember your home by. Cookies or snack foods are a good idea, just keep it simple.

Information for Buyers

Searching for a home here is exciting no matter what your price range. To help get you started, we've developed a free home search with a variety of ways to narrow down the choices and find the properties which suit your needs best.

Search for Cental La. homes-Alexandria, Pineville, Ball, Tioga, and outlying communities.

However, browsing the listings is just the first step. Before you start to make offers, you need to know the investment potential of each property of interest. Getting this information can be difficult without the right experience in your real estate market, and many homes for sale are never listed publicly. Avery has that experience: our Buyer's Agents and Investment Specialists are trained in, and focus specifically on just these projects - keep reading to find out more!

Testimonials

My wife and I were looking to purchase a new home and we had the pleasure of being one of Robert's first clients. Being first time home buyers we were unsure of the process and Robert worked closely with us every step of the way. His patience and knowledge made it easy for us to pick the perfect home. We are extremely happy with the home he helped us to find and we know that we can look to him for advice even though the sale is over. I have and will continue to in the future recommend Robert to my friends and family because I trust his expertise. I look forward to working with Robert again when I purchase a new home as my family expands. Anthony J. Williams August 14, 2010
