Open House Guide:  Dos and Don'ts for Home Buyers

A real estate open house is the ultimate in low-pressure marketing. It's a professional event presented as a social occasion. Some sellers serve refreshments, which might make it seem like a party, but be on your best behavior. Even though an open house feels like a Sunday afternoon social, the owners mean business. If you're serious about buying a house, they are serious about selling their home to you. Their open house is an all-access pass they hope will lead you to a "yes" decision.
