When done right, open houses are a great way for potential buyers to see your property at its best. When done wrong? You risk ruining your chances of a quick sale. Below are the worst mistakes sellers make at open houses as identified by Parade Magazine:
1. Staying during the open house
2. Not leaving enough time before you leave to prepare the house
3. Not cleaning up at all before you leave
4. Letting pets stay during the open house
5. Trying to mask odors with stronger odors
6. Trying to mask sounds, such as traffic noise, with louder sounds
7. Not turning on lights before you leave
8. Blocking access to parts of the house
9. Leaving notes for buyers, pointing out features of the home
