Impromptu Open Houses Work For Me

 

Yesterday morning I put a new listing in the MLS and quickly

had a showing scheduled for 2:30PM.

So I proceeded to  set up an impromptu

Open House  from 3-4.

 

Who does an open house on a Friday afternoon?

 

Six groups came through.

Today I have another scheduled showing and will   repeat this open house.

Below are the steps for doing an Impromptu Open.

 

Impromptu Open House

 

1.Wait for a scheduled appointment since you need to be there anyway.

2. Put it in the MLS.

3. Put up your open house sign.

4. Show the house to the scheduled agent.

5. Show to anyone else who comes through.

6. Lock the house and remove the signs.

7. Check the time. From start to finish-1 1/2 hours.

Margaret, impromptu does work, i.e. I listed a home on Thursday and new the neighboring development was having a yard sale on Saturday.  On Saturday morning I put up the Open House sign, and it went under contract that day!
