On-trend realtors are tapping into the latest gaming craze in order to attract potential buyers to their listings.
Pokemon Go has become a massive phenomenon and it could be a good marketing trick to lure buyers, especially hard-to-reach millennials.
One Victoria realtor has already successfully attracted interest by suggesting that the game’s players may find the Pokemon they are searching for at an open house event.
