Enthusiasm is growing
for the first ever Nationwide Open House
Weekend April 10 - 11. Many REALTORS®
from up and down the Grand Strand are signing
up to participate in this event.
It is not too late for your office to participate
as well. All you have to do is send us a list
of the homes that will be open and the times that
you will be there. CCAR will post a list of the
homes on our website and direct the public to it
through advertising and promotion. The homes
will also be listed in the
Coastal Carolina Real Estate Weekly.
CCAR will also be providing balloons
(uninflated) for you to decorate your
homes that weekend to help guide
buyers to your Open House. We hope
to have media coverage on that weekend to
highlight this exciting event.
Send all information to lisa@ccarsc.org.
Thanks, and we look forward to
seeing you April 10-11.
