Give a new home a test run

What?  Give a new home a test run?  How can you do that?  With the current condition of the market, sellers are getting creative.  (In fact, creative agencies looking to hire new people should keep their ear to the ground in regards to how sellers are trying to sell their home...but I digress.)  Some sellers, from what I have read are prepping their home and allowing some potential buyers to actually stay in their home for a few days - to get the feel of the home or condo.  How crazy is that?  You can literally try out a home for while!  I mean, I gues it makes sense.  Some people are giving their will to the buyer when they die and some simply prep it with new furniture.  Whatever the gimmick is, they usually make the news.  The more random, most likely the more exposure the sellers will receive.  But do these tactics work?  Does even the exposure from the media about their creative idea help sell the home?  It would be a very interesting case-study, don't you think?  Is this where the markets are headed?  I mean, what other crazy ideas will sellers of new condos come up with?  Maybe there should be a site dedicated solely to  the wackiest and most creative ideas a seller  has.  Or, to follow a trend, we can create a reality a TV Show called SELL MY HOME! where a host profiles property owners who need to sell their home fast!  Has anyone written a book on this?  I would be curious to read it as would many property owners in dire need of someone to buy their condo.
