Overview

When a single property experiences a high number of showings, it can lead to increased costs. This article outlines several strategies to manage showings once a property has reached a threshold of 15 live agent showings.


Implementing a Tour Limit

Establishing a tour limit of approximately 15 showings for high-traffic properties can help you monitor the number of tours conducted. This awareness allows you to take appropriate actions to manage the property effectively and maintain a balance between showings and costs.


Strategies for Managing Showings

Once your property has reached 15 live agent showings, consider the following options to keep the number of tours manageable and costs down:

  • Schedule tours with your in-house staff: After 15 showings, you use Restricted Showings use the Showdigs scheduling software to assign tours with your in-house staff on a weekly basis. This approach ensures that you will not incur charges for tours conducted by your own team.

  • Switch to Self-Showing: Another option is to deactivate the property and then re-activate it as a self-showing property. This method eliminates charges for additional Showdigs agent tours, and your staff will not need to be present for these tours.
