March Comes In Like A Lion March 19, 2010
By Stephanie Streeter
 

January and February showed promise for an increase in sales in 2010, but March has definitely started off with a bang!  In just the first few weeks of this month, six listings from Smith & Associates’ Tampa Real Estate office have closed after being on the market for less than 65 days – one for as little as 4 days on the market.   We asked our associates who listed these properties what it was that got these homes sold so quickly.
