Why conduct viewings yourself?

Conducting viewings yourself has many advantages:

  • 💰 Cost savings – you save thousands of guilders in brokerage fees.

  • 🏡 Personal story – you know all the strengths and details of your home.

  • Flexibility – schedule appointments when it works for you and the buyer.

Tips for a successful tour

1.     Prepare your house well:

A tidy and clean house makes a world of difference. Make sure the home smells fresh, personal items are out of sight as much as possible, and the spaces are well lit. Small details like fresh flowers or attractive styling can have a big impact.

2.      Know the strengths of your home.
Think about what makes your home unique. Is it the natural light, the spacious garden, or the cozy neighborhood? Share these details enthusiastically with your visitors. Don't forget to provide practical information, such as energy costs, the year of construction, or the beautiful extension and recent renovations.

3.      Maintain a friendly and open attitude.
The first impression counts! Welcome the visitors with a smile and put them at ease. Give them space to look around and invite them to ask questions. Try not to be too pushy, but be available for explanations.

4.      Be honest about potential concerns.
Every house has areas for improvement. Be open about this and indicate what solutions might be possible. Honesty builds trust and prevents disappointments later on.

5.      How to handle feedback?
Not everyone will be immediately enthusiastic, and that's okay. Some visitors may give blunt opinions about your home. Try not to take such feedback personally, but view it as an opportunity to learn. Sometimes you also receive valuable tips that can make the home even more attractive to future buyers.

6.      Planning and organizing.
Make a clear schedule for your viewings. Keep in mind that some buyers may prefer to come in the evening or on weekends. Ensure that you plan enough time between appointments, so you can tidy up and prepare after each viewing.
