Showing times are discussed with individual sellers for the most ideal results.  It's good when simplication/organization is in place including communication of showing time restrictions/allowances.  The fewer surprises in real estate often means "better".

Typically we do not put showing times in our MLS here Paul S. Henderson, REALTOR®, CRS . 99% of the time the listings say "call before showing" even on vacant homes.

The default for vacant properties - modified for occupied depending on the sellers' wants/needs/desires. I've learned over the years that showing instructions in the MLS often are not followed.

No need to modify the time on the boxes. If it's an occupied home it's by appointment only and if a client wants to cut off showings at a certain point in the day it doesn't matter what the default time is.

It depends if vacant or occupied. I always ask my seller as some, expecially with little ones need to block out early and later times.

We can modify the Supra access hours but rarely find that is necessary.

We recently had a seller who strongly insisted on restricted hours. We reset the Supra box and inserted the appropriate comments in the mls.

If there are time restrictions, I put them in the showing instructions and make the house show by appointment only.  The sellers are made aware of the impact that will have.

 

Modifying the times on the supra boxes never works right.
