Rub Down With Bacon Before That Listing Appointment

By , About.com Guide   March 30, 2009

Follow me on:

OK, if you don't care about a $150 million listing, you can ignore this. After all, your business may be booming. But, if it's not, you might want to make yourself more attractive to the canine member of the family.

Realtor.org reports that Candy Spelling, the widow of Hollywood producer Aaron Spelling, will be placing their 56,500 sq ft home on the market. In interviewing real estate professionals, she had her dog, Madison, brought in each time to see how the dog reacted to the Realtor. The one the dog liked best got the listing.

Hopefully, the dog's choice will be able to do the virtual tour(s) required for a home where even the owner doesn't know how many rooms it has. I know that I would probably need to use GPS, not to find it, but to get out once I'm done with a showing. At any rate, Hormel is particularly enticing to dogs, so get some ready for your next listing appointment.

That’s the best advice I’ve heard this week. Why didn’t I think of that.
