Having an open house for tenant showing
I have a duplex that I am losing a tenant in. I am thinking of doing an open house on the weekend from say 11-4 (or something like that). Is this a good way or bad way to show your property to tenants?
I am looking to consolidate the amount of showings to hopefully just one day. I would gather all qualified applicants prior and then just let them know I will be at the property on Saturday from 11-4...
I heard, on the podcast, a investor do this with his contractors when getting estimates. To me it sounds like it would save time
Thanks!!

@Zac Boelkow this is exactly how I do it. Saves time and trips to the property for the no shows and creates urgency to make a decision. I advertise it as such stating that there is an open house on Saturday from this time to that time. 3 out of 4 times that alone has created urgency and I end up having renting it out prior to the open house because people wanted the unit.
