Safety first

Trip hazards, fragile areas, and insecure boundaries need a plan. Owners should secure pets and valuables; agents should set expectations for groups.

Disclosure posture

Agents must work within CPRs and material information expectations. Train staff to escalate property questions you cannot answer from verified sources.

Record keeping

A short log of questions raised on the day can help the vendor and solicitor later.
