When the lights go down on a property for sale…

Does anyone like to look at homes for sale at night?  We learned this week that one of our clients is going to have a photographer take some night pictures of her upcoming listing.  This is a good idea because homes take on a certain warmth at night.  I am excited to see her upcoming photos.

This also got me thinking about when I’ve looked for property, I often preview it online then sneak a peek at night and do a drive-by if it looks vacant.  I learned I am not alone on this, as studies show that potential buyers will often drive by before previewing with an agent.  When it is staged, we like to keep the lamplight on for anyone sneak peeking.  The stage is working late -night overtime!

We normally leave during the day, but I had to do a final walk-through at night for this townhome in Seattle.  You won’t be able to see in the windows of this one at night because it’s three stories, so I’ll share a sneak peek with you.  -kk
