Pray for Bad Weather?

From the NYT Walk-Through…
Last winter, Devon and Nick McConnell sold their one-bedroom co-op on West End Avenue in Manhattan. The listing price was $399,000. The selling price was $435,000. “We fully expected to get $50,000 less,” Nick told me.There happened to be a blizzard on the day of their open house. Should they cancel? Absolutely not, said their broker, Richard Merton of Stribling & Associates. He never cancels for bad weather.
“You don’t have tire-kickers coming out in a blizzard,” he told me. “They are serious shoppers.”
