We recently received some feedback from buyers who talked about the joys of visiting private sale open houses.

The buyers described their experience as “relaxed”, “no pressure”, and “it was refreshing to deal directly with the seller. They were able to give us great information about the home and the area”.

When you visit a private sale open house you will not be asked for your information by an agent (who is looking for a new client). You will be able to talk with the owner and ask them why they liked the home, why they are moving, There are many differences between private sales and agent sales when it comes to open houses:

Why do private sellers have open houses

Private sellers have open houses in order to boost their exposure and also to make it easier to manage their sale.

Having an open house is a terrific way for a private seller to manage their sale. Private sellers can allow all the buyers to look at their online listing during the week and then scheduling all view appointments for the weekend during set hours when they are having an open house. This limits the amount of time it takes to manage the private sale.

Sellers can also put open house signs up in their nieghbourhood during open house hours, which will increase their exposure in the neighbourhood. If an agent is doing an open house around the corner and the private seller has their open house signs out, then the private seller will attract the same buyers as the agent’s property (and pay 5% less commission!).
