Do Open Houses Work in Fishers, Indiana?
August 31st, 2011
Many Fishers clients of mine ask me when I am putting their home up for sale, whether or not they should have an open house? Open houses can be effective when you have the proper house with the following criteria:1)Priced at or below market value
2)Open house is right when the home comes on the market(or before)
3)Close to a main road(easy to advertise by signs-(if it is in the back of the neighborhood very few will find it)
4)In perfect condition(clean, neutral, updated, etc.)
5)Heavily marketed online(facebook,craigslist, realtor.com, Zillow.com, Trulia.com, various real estate websites, etc.)
If the home does not meet most or all of these criteria most likely the turnout will be small and the majority of the people who will come are nosy neighbors or people who have to sell their home first(and they had to get out of their home that day while their agent held it open).
If your home does meet these factors open houses can be successful. We have sold homes in open houses or sparked interest so the buyers came back at a later date and purchased the home. Happy Selling!
