This is more my opinion rather than fact. I am not a Realtor nor do I work in any thing related to the real estate market.
My Realtor told me she doesn't hold open houses (that should have been a clue not to go with her) - that may have worked when there were more people looking then what was available for sale. But I feel now that there are so many houses for sale holding open houses would be the best way to "showcase" that home that has a great price and in great shape. Personally I wished my Realtor would hold an open house - I feel it may help my home sell. When the current contract with my Realtor is done - I will find another Realtor that will hold open houses to "showcase" my home.
Again this is my opinion. - Sat Jun 21 2008, 12:08
