Roll out the red carpet in Northern Liberties

Roll out the Red Carpet in Northern Liberties !

HGTV called us the other day. They said,

 "Hi Somers Team. We have a Hot show called "My First Sale" and we may have found our next new Rising Real Estate Star !"


Our condo listing located in Northern Liberties has captured their attention! With so many incredible contenders out there in the Philadelphia Real Estate Market, Hollywood has their eye on our lovely listing at 1027 N 4th Street, Unit L - A bright and warm 1 bedroom 3 story gated courtyard condo with fireplace and charm galore for $267,500.

 

This bright contemporary Courtyard Condominium development located in the heart of Northern Liberties is within walking distance to what will become some of your favorite coffee shops, cafes, and restaurants. The Piazza and Liberties Walk are a stone's throw from this chic 3 story home.

There's no better way to come home then to enter through the gated courtyard with communal brick patio outdoor space through your 1st floor private entrance to your unit. The second floor has an open layout with a modern kitchen with cherry wood cabinets, pristine granite counters, stainless appliances and hardwood floors throughout.

The living room has a romantic gas fireplace with plenty of room for your flat screen and comfy furniture. There is a half bath off of the living room. Step out on to the terrace and enjoy overlooking the beautiful courtyard. The third floor has a spacious bedroom with skylight, slider glass door with Juliette Balcony, a full master bath, washer and dryer. All baths have a contemporary Euro-style vanities and beautiful Italian tiles.

 

 

The condo owner and the Somers Team are going to be interviewed for submission to appear on HGTV's new Show "My First Sale." The interview will be this Saturday at 12:30 for the official meet up with the producers of the program on site at the condo.

Wowsers, I knew I should have been asking for an autograph when I met Stephanie down in Philly.  Big props to you both!

I know this dapper Mortgage Guy in Allentown who is made for television;)

Ah shucks . . . they're fickle those HGTV folks.  They said the same thing to an agent team in my local area.

Posted by Carla Muss-Jacobs - Principal Broker/ Owner | Exclusive Buyers Agent | (503-810-7192 | BuyersAgentPortland.com) over 2 years ago

Awesome!  Looks great and sounds like a wonderful opportunity.

Posted by Erica Crowell (eRealty Inc.) over 2 years ago
Hey guys, great news I hope they pick you that would be a nice marketing tool. Let us know what the outcome is. My wife and I miss Philly.
Posted by David O'Doherty-Clayton NC Homes Raleigh, NC (Coldwell Banker HPW) over 2 years ago

In all reality, the Sellers and their property are the ones HGTV has their eye on. We are just riding on their coat tails : )

Our main objective is to use the opportunity to create a Social Media buzz about our client's property. What a great opportunity to market this wonderful condo! Not to mention an opportunity to boast about the great neighborhood in which it is located. We can spin it to bring positive attention to our Team and office too! We do not care if we get chosen to be on TV. It is not about us. It is about Opportunty.

These days the motto has to be, "When life tosses you lemons; make lemon-aide." In this case our motto is, "When life tosses us an opportunity to rub elbows with the producers of a Reality TV show; make lemon-aide and serve it in Champagne glasses, then talk about it on every social Media platform possible !"

CHEERS !!  and let's sell this property !!!!

Chris and Stephanie - Congratulations to you, the property, and the seller!  Love your attitude of "if they pick us to be on TV or not - doesn't matter."  You've got the buzz already, now it's just about the follow up to sell that house and make everyone happy!  Great job.

Posted by Matt Stigliano (Kimberly Howell Properties (210) 646-HOME) over 2 years ago

Hi Guys, congrats on this great opportunity. Although it is great exposure for your seller, this also shows other people in Northern Liberties and surrounding areas that you are THE agents to hire to list their home. How many other agents are doing these great things to market their listings---you guys rock and deserve credit for all your hard work.

Posted by Dan and Amy Schuman- Cleveland OH Luxury Real Estate (Howard Hanna Real Estate Services) over 2 years ago

Hi Chris & Stephanie -- Congratulations and I hope you win the spot -- the exposure will be priceless.  You SOOOOO deserve it!!!!!!

Posted by Chris Olsen Broker Owner Cleveland Ohio Real Estate (Olsen Ziegler Realty) over 2 years ago
Congrats guys. You certainly deserve the nod ;)

Sounds like an amazing opportunity for you and your sellers! And what a great property. Hope you enjoy the experience and that it helps you sell the home quickly!
Posted by Monica Ray (JAM Media Group) over 2 years ago

Thank you everyone for the well wishes regarding 1027 N 4th St, Unit L in Northern Liberties !  We are excited about this opportunity but more excited about getting the property sold for our clients !

@Matt - You nailed it in terms of how we are thinking with this !  If our sellers get the nod, great !  If not, we capitalized on a super marketing opportunity to create more of a buzz on our listing and to increase open house traffic this Sunday !

@Dan and Amy - Exactly !  If I were a seller in Northern Liberties or any surrounding area, I think I would be paying attention to the Nth detail who was out there providing maximum exposure to their listings !

Chris & Sephanie - One of my buyers and I have submitted video on their Rehab project for HGTV. So maybe you can throw in a good word for us.

I am looking forward to having a coffee with my celebrity friends when I come to Philly in December !!

Posted by Laura Gray (RE/MAX Realty Group) over 2 years ago

great job guys. best of luck from now on.

Posted by Roch St-Georges (HomeLife Capital Realty Inc., Brokerage) over 2 years ago

Sounds like a great chance to show off your sellers condo and maybe end up on TV too.

Posted by Cindy Jones-Northern Virginia Real Estate & Military Relocation Services (CJ Realty Group, Inc.) over 2 years ago

After reading the Release thet HGTV needed us to sign I was like "Whoa... wait-a-second here!"

The HGTV gods basically wanted us to agree to letting The Somers Team's Stephanie Somers asks" What am I getting myself into here? ?"them have the exclusive rights all video and audio and manipulate them in any way negative or positive to portray us in any way they wanted forever in any capacity known to human or alien kind in all of the universe for eternity.

So, we agreed : )

I took the firm advice of one of the producers who emailed me the night before. I did my hair, put on some make-up (not that I had to be instructed to do so) and had a great time! Thanks for the opportunity HGTV!  I admit I was a little nervous not knowing what to expect (thus the photo to the the right). But Karen, the person masterfully working the camera, was very cool and made us feel like we were just chatting amongst friends. Chris and I are so busy all of the time running our Remax office that we rarely take the time to do something fun and different. Well, this was fun and it certainly was worth it for us to participate just for the 15 minutes of fame (in my own mind) and the right to brag a little for marketing purposes.

Good luck with the rest of your casting HGTV. Thanks everyone for the well wishes.

Philadelphia is a great city ! Northern Liberties is a great district. We invite you to visit us here any time.

Chris... as I mentioned on your most current post, this is awesome. I wish I would have read this earlier, because I would have come down to the open house to be on your VIP list, but I am running late for plans today's football game anyhow.  But this is great and think you and Stephanie are a great fit for this. Besides, this condo sounds like a great catch. especially for the area...  PS.. if you still have an extra VIP invite, I still would love to come to the show.

I tried out for "my first place". They did an interview with a camera person and everything, but then they never called me back. It must have been my over-enthusiasm about buying a place. Anyway, Congratulations! www.constructonomics.com
