SUCCESSFUL HOME SHOWINGS

Once your house is listed on the MLS, you will have potential buyers walking through it during open houses or showings. These buyers will feel more comfortable discussing the property with Jack, when you are not present. Take some time to go to a park or run errands during showings. Also, if possible, bring your pets with you during this time, as this will put buyers at ease. In addition, don’t forget to clean and tidy up before showings and open houses.

Private showings and open houses provide opportunities for potential buyers to view your home and get a sense of what it it would be like to live there. In a competitive marketplace, such as Los Angeles, it is imperative that your property looks its best. You want potential buyers to be extremely impressed with the interior and exterior of your home, and highly motivated to make a serious offer. To sell your home fast and for the highest price possible, it is important that viewings and opening houses are done properly.
