The family was wowed. Even for this crowd, such architectural treasures as a carved limestone hearth from Britain's Cambridge University, a real fossilized dinosaur footprint under glass and an 1873 pool house imported in sections from a castle in France's Burgundy region were jaw-dropping details.
But finding buyers with deep enough pockets to plunk out $19 million for a house requires far more than a For Sale sign and a run of traditional advertising.
Rosina Seydel, an agent with Atlanta Fine Homes about to launch her marketing effort for a $20 million listing on West Paces Ferry Road, plans to pay her own fare for an upcoming marketing trip to Hong Kong with other agents from the Sotheby's International Realty.
"The people who sell in these price points ...know you've got to get out there," Seydel said. "It's all about networking."[/quote]
Indeed. Apparently a "For Sale by Owner" sign in the house won't be enough to put this deal together! :th_coolio:"

First time I have ever heard about a dinosaur footprint in a house though..."
