what is the term used for first introducing a property to a buyer or tenant
Feb 22, 2021 09:01:17Hey Andy! I think you are referring to a showing. A home buyer is typically introduced to a property by a buyer’s agent through a showing. An open house is also one way a buyer can be introduced to a property, but the last one is a public house tour rather than a private tour.
