Homes with a 'locked' room, on the MLS?
This week another home came on the market with a 'locked' bedroom. The MLS showing instructions said; show the house and if your clients like it, the listing agent will make arrangements to have the 'locked' room shown. There was no other explanation.
This is a family home (I did a drive by), not the type of home that would have a 'grow' room or a drug lab.
I find it difficult to believe that the owners and the listing agent believe that buyers would make a second trip to the home to see one room.
If you will be placing your home on the market in the future, the concept of having a room, any room, locked; does not work. If necessary relocate what ever will be in a 'locked' room to a storage area. Out of sight, out of mind.
Homebuyers want to see the entire home! If they like it they may decide to write an offer immediately. You do not want them to wait to see a 'missing' room! There is too much competition out there right now.
