Out here, in the summertime I won't schedule showings in the afternoon. It is too hot and I'm acclimated but they're usually not. Rare exception to this.
As I also advise clients that I'm a very early riser and dippy doodle after about 6 p.m., I don't like to show property after 4 or 5 p.m. at the latest no matter what the weather is. Rare exception.

It depends. On the buyer. (And is it a first time viewing vs. a subsequent showing). The property.  Lots of different factors come into play.

I typically schedule showings for during the late morning/early afternoon.  If I don't have that option (someone working during the week) I'll show a vacant home I have listed up until 7p (it gets dark around 8p here).

Depends on whether it is occupied, if vacant I authorize the showings at anytime their agent wants to show it.

It is extremely rare that I show any properties myself, generally I send others.

Dan,

In commercial real estate, one rarely shows property after business hours.  If I were in residential, I would be in the luxury end or the spectrum, and I would not show after dark.  A

It depends... on the buyer, on my schedule, whether the seller allows it, whether it's already dark outside, whether it's a weekend. Too many variables. In general, I tell my clients up-front I don't work past 7pm, but if they want to be out with me at 7am I am happy to accommodate them.

For vacant properties 7 P.M. for properties that are occupied 5 P.M. I understand that people get off work at different times but I loathe having to have a family or person vacate their home for an hour after a long day of work. Vacant not an issue but I do like time with my family so 7 P.M is my cut off.
