Almost Famous

Many of you know we've been trying unsuccessfully to sell our house for several months. The situation is getting dire, as you can imagine. But perhaps our luck is turning. I got a call from our Realtor today who told me that she'd just gotten off the phone with a producer for NBC's "Today Show," and they might want to feature our house in a regular segment they do called "What You Get For the Money." Supposedly it's done by some bigwig in the real estate business, and they've narrowed their search down to 12 houses across the country to feature. They're going to take a look at pictures of each house sent in by owners/real estate agents and decide on six to feature on the show.

So I guess our beloved home has a 50 percent chance of appearing on "The Today Show" on Friday morning!

Click on the "Almost Famous" post title above to check out more photos of our place, taken before we moved out, so you'll know what to watch for on Friday. I'll post again if we were passed over and it ain't gonna happen. But keep your fingers crossed! The NBC gal told our Realtor this usually gives some great exposure for homeowners....

Good luck Robyn. It's an absolutely beautiful home. Times must indeed be tough if it hasn't sold. I watch that segment on Today all the time. Hope you get picked!! It's sure to sell if you do. Sheila's mom
