We have had several house sits where the home has been for sale while we have been looking after the house. Thats no problem for us, we have owned lots of our own places and had open homes for selling them.
Where we are currently, the house is on the market. The land agent has brought one or two people through but not many, so decided to have an open home. We emailed the owners to make sure it was okay with them, and they were fine with it. They have been very conscious of our privacy while we have been here, which has been very thoughtful of them.
So yesterday we had an open home here. We always keep the house nice and tidy and clean, so it wasn't as if we had to do anything special. After a prolonged dry spell Peter mowed all the lawns a few days ago, and the whole place is looking really nice, although we have had a lot of wind so the pool is always filling up with leaves.
There are quite a few homes for sale in this area, it is a beautiful area to live in and this house is older but solid, and very private. Unfortunately the weather wasn't too good, showery, and only one family came through. I think they will have some more open homes in the next month or two, to see if they can find a buyer. When that happens, we will be off to new pastures.
