Open homes / private viewings – all welcome!

Enjoy going to open homes or private viewings but feel awkward around an agent and dread when you see them calling? Please don’t!  We are people too, we have lives outside of real estate, and we are simply working to facilitate your buying journey and/or selling experience.

When you attend an open home, come in, say hello, and have a good look around - there is no pressure to chat! It’s no problem if you’re a ‘nosey neighbour’ - I personally love it when neighbours visit (you may have friends or family that you realise the house could work for). Equally, if you are intrigued by a renovation, that’s fine too – you may be pleasantly surprised and decide to buy already renovated, rather than enduring a renovation yourself. Yes, we need your name and a contact number or email address – this is standard open home protocol, and it’s respectful to our vendors who are inviting you into their home. If you don’t want to receive our emails or be contacted afterwards for comment, that’s absolutely fine, just let us know. We complete ‘call backs’ and other contact attempts once you have viewed a property to obtain helpful feedback for our vendors and to assist genuine purchasers progress their interest. Thoughts on price, positives, negatives, are all relevant and can help an agent gather the necessary information to better inform their vendors and be in tune with where their home sits in the current market (this is especially important in a tough market). All commentary is welcome, whether you want to buy the house or not, and if you don’t want to have that communication after a viewing, just give us your feedback at the time – it couldn’t be easier!
