looking for open houses?

Truth is, before I worked in real estate, I just loved stopping by an open house to look at houses especially in my own neighborhood. And face it, visiting open houses is always a fun way to take a peak at houses for sale that catch your eye without bugging the real estate agent. (Remember though, if you are working with a buyer's agent to let the open house host know that you are already working with a Realtor. They should respect that relationship and be glad that you have an agent to represent your interests! Also, as one of my clients says, "every house is an open house when you are working with a buyer's agent!" so if you are actively in the market)

I've recently found a great new local website http://www.openhousesky.com that agents can put the homes they are holding open that weekend. Check it out if you have a boring Sunday afternoon and want to go look at some houses!
