Holding an open house can be a great way to get your home for sale noticed — that is, if your home is in good condition. If not, well…

Few buyers want to buy a house sight unseen. Holding an open house is a great way to get many potential buyers through the door and show off your polished, picture perfect home. But first you must make sure your home is ready to be seen.

You and your agent can take steps to make sure the maximum number of people sees your home, increasing its chances of selling quickly for a better price. While technology has changed some aspects of open houses, others – such as the importance of making a good first impression – remain the same.
