KNOCK KNOCK….

By Buddy Kane


 

 Who’s there?

Buyers. Lots of ‘em. More than there are Sellers, by a long shot. This isn’t news, but it’s gotten to the point that many agents are revisiting age old door knocking techniques used in the past to bring in new business. The agents I’ve spoken with are having a fair amount of success using this approach. To me, the idea of knocking on some one’s front door in the Covid era congers images of Carl Hanratty played by Tom Hanks in the movie Catch Me If You Can, responding with an abrupt “Go F@#$! Yaself”, slamming the door in my face.

Located within the Stonington Borough, this 15-unit apartment building boasts of long-term full occupancy attributed to its shoreline village atmosphere with direct proximity to local shops, restaurants, and recreational attractions within walking distance. 

The property was placed under contract after being on the market for less than a week. With multiple offers submitted, a full price bid was secured and fortified with backup offers as well as further inquiries accrued over the span of the contract period until the date of closing.

Demand for multi-family properties (4 units or more), appears to have spiked over time, fueling speculation that this very demand could be linked to the affordability of home prices…
