Open House Schedule for this Sunday

One way to beat the heat this weekend is to do some house hunting at the Jersey Shore. According to Realtor.com, there are many benefits to attending an open house. First, buyers have an opportunity to realistically see what they can afford in the housing market. Second, you will have the opportunity to ask your real estate related questions to a licensed realtor. Third, you will be able to drive through the neighborhood or perhaps walk the community to see if it feels like home. Finally, you will learn more about your needs with regard to amenities once you actually preview homes. For instance, after visiting several single family homes, you may decide you actually prefer a townhome, where maintenance such as lawn-care and snow removal is included. Now that I’ve convinced you to attend a few open houses this weekend, here are some tips on etiquette. You may be asked to remove your shoes or wear shoe guards, which should be provided by the agent. Avoid bringing pets and be sure not to leave them in the car in this dangerous heat. Leave the pets home with plenty of ice in their water dish. Be sure to follow the “sign-in” instructions and introduce yourself to the realtor. If other perspective buyers are present, respect their privacy and give them some space. Here is a list of Open Houses scheduled for this Sunday (7/21)…have fun!
