THINGS TO REMEMBER JUST BEFORE SHOWING

Broker's will call ahead to schedule showings as we have outlined in our comments. We have a one-hour Phone to Show notice built into our comments but agents tend to give a bit more heads up. They will inform you they are planning to show your home and make sure there is no opposition.

Always give enough time to the Broker and their client(s) touring your home. Some showings last just a couple minutes while others can take over an hour. Buyers want to spend a little time and ensure this is the right fit and so we suggest you allow at least one hour for a showing.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES DURING SHOWINGS

Leave lights on. Make it feel as light and bright as possible by leaving al l necessary lighting on to ensure an inviting, warm and positive feel as buyers and agents enter your home.
