What is open house protocol? In this week’s video, Peter Lorimer of PLG Estates discusses the open house best practices that will wow your potential buyers and your sellers.

Here are the top techniques we should all use to make our open houses look the best.

  1. Make sure your sellers tidy up
  2. Be sure to deep clean
  3. Get to your open house early — turn on every light, and open every blind
  4. Use scented candles — the good kind
  5. Create a playlist that reflects the home
  6. Pay attention to curb appeal: the outside should be properly landscaped
  7. Be friendly, attentive and professional at the open house
