The Showing Process
ENSURING VIEWINGS ARE SUCCESSFUL
Private viewings and open houses provide opportunities for buyers to view your property and get a sense of what it is like to live there. Ideally, you will want them to be impressed by what they see – and motivated to make an offer.
As your real estate agent, I ensure we maximize the potential of every viewing and open house. To accomplish that, I advise you on how best to prepare your property, I market it to qualified buyers, and then, at viewings, draw their attention to the great qualities of your house.
When it comes to scheduling, I coordinate with you to select days and times that are as convenient as possible. Obviously, I encourage you to be as flexible as you can, as that will enable more buyers to see your property. Weekends, in particular, are popular for viewings.
Don’t worry about all the details. I take care of all aspects of scheduling viewings, as well as planning and hosting open houses.
Although I do most of the work, there are a few things you can do to make viewings more successful:
- Make sure your house is neat and clean.
- Remove personal items such as family pictures. This makes it easier for buyers to imagine themselves living in the house.
- Find a place to go, such as a park or shopping mall. Buyers are more comfortable if they can view the property without you there.
- If possible, remove your pets. You can take them for a walk, or to a local pet sitting service or kennel.
- Ensure the walkway leading up to your house is clear.
I realize viewings and open houses can be a little inconvenient. As your real estate agent, I will do my best to minimize the disruptions. I will focus on bringing in serious buyers, rather than those who are merely curious. This speeds up the process and increases the likelihood of a buyer seeing your property, becoming interested, and making an offer.
To sell your house quickly, and for the highest price possible, it is crucial that viewings and opening houses are done right. Want to learn more about my approach? Please call or email me today to schedule a no-obligation Personal Consultation.

"Allison Day knocked it out of the park when she sold my home! Her knowledge of the market trends, analysis of current conditions and getting us multiple showings really shaped up an excellent offer on my house. Her expertise and guidance throughout the listing phase to closing just shows she is an all star realtor. Plus leaving a surprise gift at closing speaks to how much she really cares about her customers. Nothing like a Thank You note at the end of it all. I would recommend Allison to any buyer or seller."

"We absolutely Love Allison Day! We have had her help us with the sale and purchase of homes over the last 7 years. This last one we closed on was another example of a real Professional in action! From start to finish she preps the home, markets it, does everything possible to make our experience effortless! If you need a Realtor, I absolutely without reservation recommend our Friend Allison!"

"Allison Day helped my husband and I both buy a new construction home and sell our existing home. Allison was so helpful with every step along the way. We reached out to her about a year prior to being ready to sell our home and purchase a new one. She was always available throughout the process and helped make it so easy by taking one small step at a time. Both home closings went so smoothly, on time, with no issues or surprises. Allison even worked with us day and night as we received offers when she was out of the country on her personal vacation. In this whole process, not only did we find our perfect home, sell our home quickly at the price that we wanted, but we also made a forever friend with Allison. We would highly recommend Allison Day for any real estate needs. THANK YOU ALLISON!"

"We met Allison and had an instant feeling she cared about finding a great home for our family rather than just making a sale in the hot housing market. She was honest, experienced and invested in finding a great fit. We are 5 months into our new home and so appreciative. She still helps us with a professional referral too! Highly recommend Allison to anyone looking to buy or sell in Central Florida."

"Allison Day was extremely professional and very patient with us as we went through this process of selling our rental property during the Covid-19 crisis.

"During our search for assistance in selling our home in Winter Springs, FL, my wife and I were very fortunate to have been referred to Allison Day of RE/MAX Town & Country Team. I thought selling would be a hectic and perhaps even traumatic experience. However, Mrs. Day listened to my concerns, worked effortlessly to ensure our home was well prepared for the sale (including taking care of a lot of the important things that needed attending to as I could not be at the property during that time), and staged the house beautifully and also had beautiful pictures taken of the house. Her practical and helpful advice/effort on prepping our house for sale made for a relatively quick and successful sale. We were very impressed with Mrs. Day's professionalism and her genuine interest in assuring we were satisfied with any agreement reached. We would, and will, recommend Mrs. Day to anyone in the market looking to sell or buy a home. My wife and I can't speak highly enough of our home sale experience with Allison Day!"

"I would highly recommend Allison if you're looking to buy or sell a home. Allison is very knowledgeable about the Central Florida market, and the real estate business. Throughout the process of listing my home and buying a new townhome, she was very responsive (even to texts in the evening), provided sound advice and counsel about pricing and negotiating, gave solid referrals when asked for all types of services (movers, cleaners, mortgage firms, etc), and helped keep me on track in terms of appointments and closings. Allison was very attentive and also included a lot of "personal touches" that she didn't have to, that helped make a very stressful time in my life a little more manageable!"

"Allison's professionalism, guidance, and leadership got our house sold in such a short time! She truly surpassed all our expectations. When we left for the summer we truly thought that we would be coming back in October and doing additional work on the property and doing more sprucing up. If you're selling a home, you'll definitely benefit by having Allison as your Real Estate Professional"

"Allison was a dream to work with! She helped with staging and hired a professional photographer to take pictures of my home that drew in a huge amount of interest immediately once listed. She was able to negotiate a higher selling price than I had initially thought I'd be able to get. And when there were bumps in the road, she was there to help me navigate it and still achieve my goals. I'm looking forward to working with Allison to buy my new house and highly recommend her for your real estate needs."
