The secret to this sale?
The price, location, condition, and curb appeal all helped.
But my educated guess is that the key was the “mini-Broker tour” on Nov. 2 (a week ago Tuesday).
That’s when 20 agents with “Active” Hopkins listings — myself included — collaborated to all hold our listings open between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., complete with drawings and catered lunches at many locations.
All that publicity generated lots of traffic, which raised everyone’s exposure and resulted in at least two other deals that I’m aware of.
The home is officially “Pending” until it is scheduled to close Dec. 10.
