My experience, this is often the case! And you might miss those little quirks and neighbourhood vibes that make a place feel like home. Now, open houses—they’re like the ultimate sneak peek party. Pros? You get to walk through the actual space, soak in the vibes, and see how the floorplan flows in real life. It’s also a chance to chat up the agent for insider info. And, you get to see inside cupboards and closets. Is there truly enough room for your clothes? And, if you’re trying to decide on a neighbourhood, heading to open houses first, before you book time with your agent to check houses out more thoroughly, might be a good first step. But here’s the flip side. Open houses can be a bit chaotic, especially if it’s a hot property. Plus, you’re on someone else’s schedule, which might not always sync up with yours. So, which one wins? It really depends on your preferences and situation. Virtual tours offer convenience and a comprehensive view, while open houses give you that in-person feel and interaction. Whichever you choose, happy house hunting! #VirtualTours #OpenHouses #BuyingAHome #OakvilleRealtor
