I recently wrote a blog post titled "Should I go to Open Houses?" so I put a lot of thought into some of the etiquette around Open Houses. This is my first post on this topic and as an exclusive buyer's agent, I admit, I've never worked an Open House. Ever.
So I thought I'd ask the listing agents and traditional agents to comment on this question that I receive quite often. It is:
What does "Will Honor" Mean?
It seems that on some Open House advertisements, the ad copy ends with the words "Will Honor" and that is confusing to some buyers.
I think it means that the listing agent welcomes buyers who are working with another agent to attend the Open House. They will respect your agency relationship. They represent the seller and believe it is in the best interest of the seller to get the home as much exposure as possible.
I also tell my clients that they still need to disclose the fact that they are working with an agent.
So, listing agents, is that how you would explain it?
