HGTV/FSBO.com Press Opportunity

Wednesday, September 24th, 2008

HGTV is currently looking for First-time Home Sellers to be part of their new show “My First Sale”.

Here is a brief description of the show and what they are looking for…

“MY FIRST SALE, a brand new show on HGTV, is kicking off its first season and looking for first-time home sellers in the Denver/Metro area.

We are looking for fun, high-energy people who are just starting the process of selling their first place! Our goal is to capture all the trials and tribulations of preparing for resale, pricing, negotiating, and ultimately selling a home for the first time.

Taping is getting underway this month. Ideal candidates will be interesting, energetic, financially open (people who don’t mind sharing frankly on camera about the experience and the purchase details.)”

If you are interested in participating, please leave a comment with your FSBO.com ID #.

Hopefully this will turn in to some NATIONAL media exposure for your property!
