Open houses were never a great part of my real estate arsenal...I want to be clear about that upfront. I did them for clients that asked for them during the sellers market.

We just purchased a new house in Arizona. We had been sitting out the down market in an appartment and decided to jump back in. We bought a house at a really unbelievable price (lowest for the plan since it was built between 1999 - 2000). The house has a ton of upgrades and is in what we'd consid...
