Re: Pity-Party ?
ConeyIsBabe - how are things going with your house - have you started getting some action yet???
We just put ours on the market. I went thru and staged it,and it looks the best its ever looked. We've put it on Craig's list as well as the local paper, and Craig's list seem to generate the most emails. Another strategy someone told me, is to have a garage sale. That way you get a lot of people to the house, they tell their friends, etc., and it is possible to generate potential buyers that way. I kind of pooh, poohed the idea, but interestingly, we had a garage sale 2 weekends ago, and we met a couple that just happened to be looking for a house in our area. My husband showed them the house, (it was a wreck, we weren't prepared to show it at all), and believe it or not, they're coming back for a second visit. They sound etremely interested. I'm hoping that seeing the house 'staged' will do the trick for them. So, maybe there is something to having a garage sale! Good luck with your house, ConeyIsBabe.
