After the Open House

After your Realtor® holds an open house to bring in prospective buyers, you’re full of questions.

“What did they say? Did anyone make an offer? How many people showed up to see the house?”

Your Realtor will fill you in—and if you didn’t get an offer, that’s okay. You might be surprised to know that many open houses don’t end in offers; they attract buyers who need to take time to make smart choices, and that’s a good thing.

What your really want to know is what people said about your home. Maybe there are some things you should change (a fresh coat of paint or rearranging furniture to make spaces look more open are generally easy fixes) so that your home shows better.

If you did get an offer (or two), great! Your Realtor will walk you through the next steps so that you can choose the right offer, decide whether to counter-offer, or decline an offer.

The journey isn’t over yet if you decide to keep your home on the market. You’ll have to keep your home staged for future visitors and be ready for other events, as well.
