Golfing at Willow Brook Country Club

Touted as "One of the Best Kept Secrets in Burlington County", Willow Brook Country Club is a favorite destination for area golfers.  Willow Brook is a public course which spans both Moorestown & Delran townships located on Bridgeboro Road.  The course was designed by William Gordon and opened back in 1968.  For more information on the course, fee's or to make reservations, you can visit the Willow Brook website. 

I've had the oportunity to play here several times including this past week in the Delran AA golf outing.  It was a lot of fun and as always, the course was in great shape.  Below are some photos of the course that I took.  You can also view more at my Willow Brook CC Flickr photoset.

Of course this is how we spent most of the day...looking for our lost shots!

Brochure Box: Do You Have One?

If you're an agent, do you use one?  If you're selling your home, do you want one?  If the answer is no, I'm curious - why not?  I use them on all homes that I am marketing for sale.

What am I talking about?  I'm talking about a brochure box (information box) out in front of the home right by the For Sale sign.  Usually mine are a one page full color flyer with a few pictures of the home.  Also included is the price, address, some highlights of the home, and a web page address to get more information and pictures.  If someone is driving by and has an interest in the home, they can pull over, grab a flyer and take it with them.  It'll have all the important information for them to investigate further, discuss with family members and hopefully make an appointment. 

If there is no box, what then?  Maybe they have a pen and paper to write the phone number down.  Maybe they'll try to look it up on the internet later.  Maybe they'll forget all about the house! 

Why not make it as easy as possible for a potential buyer to get the information, when they want the information?  While this seems logical to me...apparently I'm in the minority.  If you drive around town at the numerous homes for sale, how many actually have brochure boxes?  Not as many as I thought there should be.
