Home/Selling/Open House Strategy
Controlled competition

90% of our properties sell at the open house. Here's exactly how it works.

We don't do endless one-off viewings. We bring all the right buyers together at the same time — creating the kind of controlled competition that drives the best price and the fastest decision.

What is an open house?

Everyone sees your home at the same time.

A traditional viewing schedule drags a sale out over weeks. One buyer visits on Tuesday, another on Thursday, neither knowing the other exists. There's no urgency. No competition. No pressure to make a decision.

Our open house changes all of that. We pre-qualify and pre-book buyers, then bring them to your property on a single day — Day 14 of our launch process. They arrive knowing other serious buyers are there. They feel the energy. They make decisions.

The result: around 90% of our properties sell on the day, many with multiple offers. The seller chooses from a position of strength.

On the day

What buyers experience at an Our Agents open house.

Every detail is considered. Every buyer is pre-qualified. Every moment is designed to create confidence in your property.

Pre-qualified buyers only

Every person who walks through the door has been verified — mortgage agreed in principle, timescale confirmed, genuine intent established. No browsers, no tyre-kickers.

A warm welcome

Refreshments on arrival, a relaxed atmosphere, and a knowledgeable host who knows every detail of the property. Buyers feel at home — which is exactly the point.

Visible competition

Buyers see other buyers. They hear the conversations. They feel the interest. That energy is authentic — and it makes the decision to offer much, much easier.

Marketing pack ready

Printed property details, floor plans and a full marketing brochure available on the day. Professional presentation that reinforces the quality of your home.

Same-day offers

Buyers are encouraged to submit offers on the day. We set a clear decision window — creating urgency without pressure — so you receive best-and-final offers quickly.

You choose the outcome

With multiple offers in hand, you're in complete control. Choose on price, on buyer quality, on timescale — whatever matters most to you. The power is yours.

Common questions

Everything you've wondered about open houses.

In the rare cases where a sale isn't agreed on the day, we have a warm list of interested buyers to follow up with immediately. We don't simply put you back on Rightmove and wait — we work the pipeline. But to be clear: this happens in fewer than 10% of our open houses.

Every registered buyer completes a pre-qualification process before they're booked in. We confirm mortgage agreement in principle, purchasing position and genuine timescale. Only verified buyers receive a confirmed viewing slot.

Not at all — the vast majority of our sellers tell us it's actually a really positive experience. We manage the flow, handle all buyer conversations, and you can be as involved or as hands-off as you prefer. Many sellers tell us the open house day is the moment they genuinely feel their home is being valued.

Absolutely. We'll agree your pricing expectations as part of the Selling Advice Meeting and factor them into how the campaign is positioned. You're always in control of which offers you accept.

Yes — the open house, all viewings management, Beat the Portals campaign, professional photography and video, and active progression through to completion are all included in the £895 selling package. No hidden extras.
