30% Off Complete Restaurant Bill in Bethesda Area

Not just YOUR dinner - but your whole group's! Includes drinks!

GROUPON - Living Social - 2for's - WTSO....... The offers seem to roll in every day. Always a can't miss deal and a moments notice opportunity.

When I was "invited" to Village Vines - I was sceptical that this was just another program that would clog my inbox with daily offers that are 95% useless. Sure - they may be a good deal on dinner - but you can generally use only one coupon per table - or the coupon did not include drinks.

It is not my idea of "LivingSocial" if to use the coupon - I have to sit at the bar by myself.

This concept is different. It gives you 30% off your entire bill for your entire party. No fuss, no muss - just a hefty discount. I went to Indique Heights in Bethesda on Saturday and ran up a bill of $200 with my wife and group of friends before a late movie. The bill was promptly discounted to $120 - after the discount was applied.

I don't know about how others live - but eating and drinking for me is social. A 30% discount on the entire table is pretty sweet.

What is the catch? Well - you have to sign up - which takes about 5 minutes. You have to look at the current DEALS and see which restaurants are participating for the day you want to eat. Make a reservation through their system (Think Open Table) - and pay a $10 charge.

Did I say CHARGE? Yes I did. For me - paying $10 for the reservation was well worth the $60 discount.

You can also get credits for convincing others to join. They will credit your account $10 for each person or group that signs up on your recommendation. Certainly worth a try.

Under Contract - Crescent Plaza - #712

Under Contract!

The market is still strong for units at Crescent Plaza. We still have one of the more attractive "Downtown" properties, especially at the sub-$400K price point.

The buildings patience with my constant open houses on the weekends is paying dividends. I have been keeping a list of folks with interest in the building and have been successful in soliciting these buyers to return.

The larger one bedroom units tend to sell quickly as do those with a balcony. We have been able to get premium prices for these units as well. The smaller one bedroom units are still finding buyers - but the time on the market tends to be up to 90 days.

Call me today if you are planning to sell this Spring. I am happy to speak with you confidentially as to what your unit may be worth!

SOLD - FULL PRICE - $384,900 #916

SOLD!

It is nice to report that I sold unit #916 for full price in less than a week!

I thank the owners of Crescent Plaza for their continued faith in my ability to turn prices around in the building. I am happy to report I think we have hit bottom in the downtown market. Look for a slow increase in sales prices from this point forward.

I have been keeping a list of visitors to Crescent Plaza open houses for the past year. Every time a new unit comes available - I make sure an invite is extended to those that have been searching. It has been a very productive strategy.

Keep your eyes and ears open - as I will have a large 1BR unit with balcony coming available soon. Anyone in the building that wants to preview before it comes on the market - let me know. I will also reduce my commission on the sale - so the buyer and seller get a better deal.

Call me today for details!
