(brief excerpt from this Real Estate Video)
....So that’s how we operated from the mid sixties to June 14, 2018. Now the rules have changed again and I think Open Houses are going to change again. What’s happening now is that realtors have to give a bunch of disclaimers to the general public when they attend Open Houses. We have to give them information on agency rules and regulations and it doesn’t give you that chance to bond with someone. If you meet someone at a restaurant and you’d like to talk with them and if ask them to sign a bunch of disclaimers first they’re probably not going to be very excited to speak with you. The first few Open Houses I’ve done since the change to the rules, that’s how I’ve found it. Its hard to build a relationship with someone when you have to start your conversation that way. The second thing that is coming along that is going to change Open Houses is Virtual Realty. Today there is only about 50 million people hooked up with Virtual Realty and they say by 2023 that figure will be over 1 billion people. You will be able to go online and check these houses out and do everything but smell them in 10 or 15 minutes when it would have taken hours before.
