Dear Owners & Listing Agents of vacant relocation properties, short sales and foreclosures:
Today I showed one house that was completely unshoveled and a 2nd that was partially shoveled but very icy. In both cases I and my clients almost fell a couple times each. This is not a good way to get people to buy your house. The house that hadn’t been shoveled at all didn’t even have any tracks – a sure sign it hadn’t been looked at since before the Christmas snowstorm over a week ago. How many buyers & agents pulled up, didn’t want to trudge through the snow and then drove off? When buyers and their agents have cold wet feet from the snow outside they are not likely to be as happy when they make it inside… first impressions are everything and you have certainly made a bad one.
