Edmonds Art Festival Weekend and Open Houses

Festivals are a great time to advertise your home. Be creative, offer goodies!

Those of us that are lucky enough to live in Edmonds know how special our town is.  Our Saturday market, our festivals, shops, restaurants and more. The Edmonds Art Festival, always held the weekend of Father's Day, will soon be here. These are the events that bring many people into our town from all over the Puget Sound. Festivals create a buzz and make people want to live here.  It's a natural by-product of all that Edmonds has to offer.

If your home is on the market, or you are thinking about putting your home on the market, these are great weekends to hold an open house.  In past years, we have had people streaming through our listings during these festivals.  What a great way to advertise!  This is an opportunity to make your home shine to those coming into town and falling in love with Edmonds.  Use lots of directional signs to direct potential buyers to your home, balloons, hand out chilled water or even free bags for festival goers to use for their purchases.  Live walking distance to town?  Offer free parking in your driveway.  Be creative!  Use this fantastic opportunity to highlight your home in a town that draws visitors from far and wide.  I can guarantee you that we'll be holding our listings open.  Come on in and say hi!
