Over the past few months I have been to a couple of open houses and Brokers opens when the seller was there. I do not know how you feel but I do not enjoy being in the house with them. When I go to an open I like to look around and get a feel of the house and discuss my thoughts and opinion with the agent. When the seller is there I do not feel free to express myself. I feel like the owner is watching me and looking for the feedback on their house, which is difficult to do. I wonder if the remarks I make will be taken to heart as many sellers are emotional about the sale of their house and the condition that it is in. What are your thoughts, does it bother you if the seller is at an open??? Does it bother your clients (as buyers tend to want to envision themselves in the house and not the previous owners)???
