I don't go to very many broker opens. It has to be close to home, and there has to be food or a reason for me to stop in. Just being honest.

The MLS drives the times ... like Corinne Guest, Managing Broker - I do not go. I preview on my own.

Weekday mornings, but often they are late am, combined with lunch, which eats up a good part of the day (no pun intended).

Our broker opens are determined by the area and the local association. Someone can find one(or two) from Tuesday through Friday. Hours vary but typically are three or four hours in length mid-late morning to early afternoon.
Depending on my schedule, I typically attend on Thursdays.

I like to do them 10-noon or 1 to 3. I have not done one in a while though as new listings are selling very quick

FEED them and they are more likely to come. That means the lunch hour.
Water them and they may attend an after hours event that has an additional feature.
9 am would be the worst possible time.

I find that successful and busy agents usually don't make time for these.

I don't attend them... if I want or need to preview a home I don't wait on a broker open. I call and make an appointment to preview.

My days are unpredictable so I can't say one day is better than another. Just plan and see what happens.

Different neighbourhoods in my area tend to have them on different days, even when the neighbourhoods are only a couple of miles apart.

It seems that most opens are not open for a long enough time for me to fit them into my schedule.

Most brokers' opens here are held on Tuesdays between 11AM and 2PM. Sometimes the agent is there and other times there is lockbox access. And if you want a crowd, you can serve lunch.

Open houses do NOT work in my market. I've tried them many ways, and so have other agents. It's a waste of time in my area.

Thursday late morning is the tradition here, but sometimes a happy hour on a Friday is good too.

Wednesday or Thursday, 11:30AM to 1:30PM. Use a caterer, preferably a local restaurant with name recognition. If your laws allow it, have a Lender or Title Company Rep offer a drawing for a $100 gift card.
