No. And I would have no intention of working on a scheduled holiday either.

Debbie Reynolds No showings on the holiday means no showings on the holiday. The seller may make an exception for you the listing agent.

I would let the sellers make the decision & 'holiday' should not mean multiple days of no showings. Maybe just the 4th itself.

If the buyer is pre-qualified and ready to buy, I'd let the seller know and hope they would allow a showing. They need to know the risk they're running if they can't/won't make the showing possible. It's our duty to inform, their responsibility to decide.

When your home is on the market, taking days off could mean not selling it. I'd do my best to convince them to squeeze a showing into their busy weekend.

Generally no. If my sellers say no showings on a specific holiday there is a reason for it.

Lets face it, all of the buyers are ready to buy. The real question to put to the agent bringing the buyer relates to where they are from. Is this buyer in town and the holiday is their very last day in the city? Are they on a "must buy on this trip" timetable? (I have been in this situation before - one trip to find a home). If they are local, I will absolutely ask them to wait and will not bother my seller. If this is a critical buying trip, I will ask my seller and let them decide. After all, it is their gain or loss!

Debbie - If the buyer was pre-qualified, and you knew they were ready to buy immediately, then I would try to ask the sellers if they would make an exception. It is completely up to them, but if they want their home sold, it has to be available to buyers when they are available.

I think it's all about timing and that important upfront discussion about showings. Are there going to be any showing restrictions? What are they and why are they important? What will you do if someone wants to show your home.....?
Through listening and a dialog, the answer will surface.
Last minute showings are very different than someone who calls a few days or a week in advance letting you know there will be buyer in town on a limited schedule. The answer depends on a lot of different circumstances.

I would certainly let them know about the request and respect their decision.
5,215,388
After some questions to the buyer, yes if I thinks it may be a good fit!
3,416,038
I tell all my sellers up front about the possibility of those pop up quick and no notice showings and why we should show it before it happens.
1,513,143
If they are commited to selling the ho and this would probably have a couple of days notice so there is no excuse not to.me will be available to show
2,160,948
I would let buyer/buyer's agent know of sellers request and I would let seller know of the possible showing, then let them make the decision.
4,434,127
989,552
Depends - do you really know how serious the buyer is because you have the buyer? If so, yes I would try to persuade.
If not, I would ask the seller but not try to persuade and let them make the decision

Debbie Reynolds - this is unique. In this case, I'd convince seller - as long as buyer is serious (find out from the buyer's agent) - to show the home and let buyer know that
1) This should be a quick showing as the seller wants to spend time with family and guests and
2) The seller may be at home - no direct interactions, please...

You have to do the best you can and if it is not accepted, try another time.

Not always. Had an agent call for an appointment today. Sellers were having a wedding reception so I certainly didn't push it. Buyers said they would see it "next trip" which means they are not going to write an offer today anyway

I would present the request to my seller and let them decide. And I have shown property on the 4th to out of town buyers who had to leave the next day.

I would mention it to the seller, and let them decide. It could be 'no showings' because of a planned Family Reunion on a holiday, or it could be because they were spending all day in their jammies! It is their choice and I would definitely ask, since my seller is my client and they want to get their home sold Debbie Reynolds.

Debbie,
I agreee with Susan Emo . When we were selling our home, and agent told us she wanted to show it on Thanksgiving Day, and gave me the same story that this was the only day they could see it...We had family coming over, etc. Our answer was NO! A
5,583,278
yes.... especially if the home is not a typical one that sells easily....
3,344,906
I advise the seller and give them the option to reconsider. First and foremost I want to honor my clients.

Not dragging me away from my well made plans on a national holiday-sorry

H Debbie - Absolutely. We've been on both sides of that one, and can usually get a showing, but not always - missed opportunity.

Of course, but alert the buyer's agent that success is not guaranteed due to the short notice.

Typically, there is a good reason for "no showing" instructions. If I'm representing the buyer, I'd know this timing issue ahead of time and I'd ask the seller for an exception. If none is granted, then so be it.

If it is Mark Zuckerburg or Donald Trump, sure. Joe Blow, ain't happening - come back tomorrow.

The brokerage's front office desk books the showings. If my seller had instructed that there were to be no showings at a specific time then the front desk would advise the caller accordingly. The seller would have been advised upfront of the issues of restricting availability.
