TIMES ARE TOUGH - WHAT'S A REALTOR TO DO ?

August 7, 2007

Times are getting a little tough in the competitive world of real estate, but when times get tough, the tough get…creative!

What better way to drum up home sales in historic Dilworth, an upscale neighborhood in Charlotte, North Carolina, than to do a three house RealtorÒ caravan and luncheon on Thursday, August 9, 2007?  Realtor’s need to eat, right?  And when one of the listing Realtors is a Certified Executive Chef, you have the perfect solution for a bang up showing and tasty good times.

Two of Charlotte’s premier Realtors, Team Papandrea and Team Basinger, both from Prudential Carolinas Realty, have joined forces to showcase three of their top properties in one fell swoop.  In an innovative move, they have enticed local Realtors to view all three homes during their lunch break, from 12:00 to 2:00 pm.  Each property features different food stations and as the Realtors progressively make their way to the third stop, they will also have the chance to win a gift of $150. 

Stop number 1 is at 524 Iverson Way.  Iverson is a newly built, custom craftsman style bungalow, with stone and Hardie plank exterior, featuring 2 stories, 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths.  Wine and cheese will be served in this beautiful home’s wine room! 

Our next stop is at 1716 Lyndhurst for a scrumptious lunch of Italian cuisine.  This historic house was built in 1900 and lovingly restored and updated.  One of its amazing features is a gourmet chef’s kitchen.  A bonus is a carriage/guest house in the back.  This house will take you back to the past and is a must-see!

Our final stop is at 625 Berkeley Avenue for a bite of dessert!  This home features 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.  Meticulous renovation and expansion offers a beautiful floor plan and wonderful kitchen.  And don’t forget the sunroom!
