Picture this: Your house hits the market and within just a few hours you have back-to-back showings lined up for the next 48 hours. Welcome to the showing madness (the result of the demand created with the help of your listing agent)!

Here are 3 things I advise my sellers to do during the busy showing days:

1. Plan a mini staycation: Book a hotel or plan to stay with family for the weekend your house hits the market. That way you can get your house prepped and ready without worrying about going back and forth with the kids, the pets, and all the things.

2. Have a Real Estate Agent who can manage the madness. They can provide all the information about the home in MLS and in brochures that buyers can take, they can field questions from buyers and their agents, they can request feedback from each showing, they will organize any offers that come in, and most importantly, pull all the pieces together while you enjoy your day.

3. Make a checklist of all the things you want to have ready before you leave the house (lights turned on, music playing, swimming pool staged, etc). Go through that checklist the weekend before your house hits the market so you are ready for everything you have to do in advance. On the day that showings start, you’ll be able to quickly run through the list so your home looks its best.
