Open House Log: 308 W 103rd
A: I saw this New York Metro Article by S. Jhoanna Robledo which chronicles a broker who asked those who visited the Open House to describe what they really thought of the place; perhaps for future marketing strategy? Not a bad idea for sellers to know what buyers actually think of their place and then use that info to stress the strongpoints in the next NY Times ad!

WHAT BUYERS SAID
* It's on track with what we want. The closets are good -- there are three [just] in the foyer . . . The bedrooms were a bit small.
* I just didn't feel it. It's not a knockout.
* It's okay, but we want a closed kitchen -- we cook a lot and don't like the smell. Ideally, if it's L-shaped, we could create a third bedroom -- I'm pregnant, and we don't want to have to move again if we have more.
* The [rooms] are long, but they're too narrow. They need to empty the rooms out and paint them Navajo white . . . Our ideal [has a] garden to barbecue.
