Mary and Me

I don't like Zillow nearly as much as Mary but I too do enjoy finding creative Buyer's incentives like this one from Mary's Sunday column:

The latest: The Brixton Group has partnered with designer Matt Lorenz, winner of Bravo TV's "Top Design" competition in 2007, to offer his services to buyers at its C/A 23 condo development at 23 N. Aberdeen St. Anyone who buys one of the building's 48 units through the end of January will get a $30,000 allowance that can be applied to the designer's fee and any furnishings the buyer chooses in consultation with him.
