Also shows benefit of professional photography. When I sold my house last year I had it professionally staged and photographed. Honestly, I barely recognized it from the listing - man, it looked beautiful. I had a half-dozen all-cash offers (above asking) within 3-days. Did I need to spend the money on staging and photography in that market? I have no idea, but I surely was not going to take any chances. Obviously, house didn't sell via pictures, but it definitely brought people to the open two open houses - over 125 people each day.

I think the top-notch photos give out-of-town buyers the (false?) courage to put in an offer sight unseen, which ultimately drives up the selling price even if the eventual buyers get a chance to see it in person before closing the deal.
Not surprised to see that Grand Alaskan go quickly - seems like a very desirable boat in good shape at a reasonable price.
