Why Picket Fence Preview was Started
We're just like you! Homeowners who have a property to sell and realized that there must be a better way than using a real estate agent.
We started this publication 15 years ago after a very frustrating time trying to both buy a home and sell our condo through the classified ads. We had been using an agent to help us find a house, and grew tired of being shown houses that just weren’t for us. We longed to see color photos of the interior and exterior, and we also believed that if we could advertise our condo with color interior pictures, it would sell right away. We started the business to accomplish those goals! Necessity is the mother of invention. Over the years Picket Fence has developed into one of the most successful and effective for sale by owner services in the nation. We are always striving to improve the effectiveness of our services for our homesellers and buyers, and are proud to know that when someone says "I'm going with Picket Fence" that is synonymous with successfully selling on your own.
Before Picket Fence, Bill was a neuroscientist at UVM; Toni was in marketing for a downtown Burlington firm. Our eldest daughter, Anna, was one year old at the time (we’ve since had two more children: Laura and Rayne).
We will forever be grateful to the 22 advertisers in our first magazine (September 1993) that took a chance with us and a publication that was a novel concept at the time!
