Third Thursday Open Houses coming to an (seasonal) end Next Week
This 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath home on North Drexel will be open Thursday
A few years ago many Columbus Neighborhoods enjoyed “Third Thursday” open houses. Us local Columbus Realtor types had an idea that home buyers would like an alternative to open houses being held only on Sunday.
It worked, but it didn’t work well in some locations. For example,the idea never really took off in Clintonville and Midtown Columbus neighborhoods. In the Bexley, Berwick and Eastmoor areas, however, Third Thursday went well. So well, in fact, that today I think it is the only area that is still doing The Third Thursday open house promotion.
I believe Open Houses are more for Realtors than they are for selling the house, but I think that the 2008 total saw 12 homes go in to contract as a result of buyers seeing the home on a Thursday. It is seasonal though and next Thursday marks the last Third Thursday open house event until the spring.
Today is the deadline for inclusion in the advertising for the Bexley, Berwick and Eastmoor 3rd Thursday open house extravaganza and to date it looks like all the homes that will be open will be in Bexley. They include….
