How to Get Buyers Attend Your Lakeland Sandpiper Home’s Open House

How to Get Buyers Attend Your Lakeland Sandpiper Home’s Open House


One of the best ways to meet prospective buyers for your Lakeland Sandpiper home for sale is through an open house. It seems simple, but in truth, it’s not that easy.

Selling your Lakeland Sandpiper Home for sale? Here’s 5 simple ways to attract your buyer.

Have you ever attended an open house where you were the only one present? Sadly, this is the reality for most sellers who hold open houses.

Here are 5 simple ways to get people attend your open house:
  • Post lots of directional signs.
Create at least 20 directional signs to your open house then print a map of the area surrounding your Lakeland Sandpiper home for sale and mark on that map where you plan to place all the signs. The more signs you have placed around the neighborhood, the easier it is to attract attention of prospective buyers.
  • Invite your neighbors and friends.
Make flyers and distribute them to neighbors a few days prior to your open house. Drop off invitations to your neighbors and tell them that you are inviting them to your open house. You can also invite friends through phone, social media, or other means. You’ll never know if one of them knows someone who is interested to buy your Lakeland Sandpiper home for sale.
  • Advertise on the Internet.
Make sure your Lakeland Fl agent is tech savvy and can advertise your home on MLS, Craigslist, and even Facebook to expose your home for sale to the maximum number of people.

  • Turn on the TV.
Turn on the TV to a big sports game, if there is one on the day of your open house. This will engage any sports fans attending the open house. Visitors tend to stay longer when the TV is on, which gives you more opportunities to engage them on the topic of  sports and your home for sale.
  • Offer free refreshments.
This may cost you a bit, but it works. If your home has a nice patio with an outdoor grill, you may want to host a backyard barbecue to showcase your patio and grill. You can add other refreshments like lemonade, hotdogs, and ice cream. This is a great way to entice prospective buyers to stay longer in your home.

What you do during your Lakeland Sandpiper home for sale’s open house is important to the sale of your home. Even if only a few people attend your open house, if they are impressed with you and your home, you’ll never know if they might just refer you to an interested buyer.
