As you might be able to tell, we’re excited to announce that September is Better Homes and Gardens® Real Estate’s fall national open house month, where we’re asking all of our affiliated associates to participate by hosting open houses throughout the month!

Remember, open houses provide a great opportunity to meet and greet potential buyers AND sellers – it’s a chance to set up a virtual office in any neighborhood.

Our BHGRE® Open House Sweepstakes will allow consumers a chance to win $2,500. Consumers can enter by attending any BHGRE open house and uploading pictures of themselves next to open house signs, and then posting these pictures using their favorite social media platforms (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or Tumblr) with the hashtag #BHGRESweeps.

Don’t be left out, because the agent who shows the house to the winning consumer also wins!  A $500 cash prize can be yours – so encourage your prospects to enter and ask them to include a hashtag of your full name so you can be included in the fun!

Check the Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Facebook page for more information on the sweepstakes, but also follow our All Things Real Estate BHGRE Facebook  and Twitter accounts for Open House best practices and tips throughout the month. And of course, stay tuned to Clean Slate for even more!

If you’re a member of the BHGRE Greenhouse, we’ve created several tools and resources, such as training programs, customized email campaigns and a social media kit, so that you can create your own remarkable and successful event.

What better way to showcase a new listing and impress those homeowners than by participating in the BHGRE Open House Month?
