I hosted an open house last weekend and within the first ten minutes, a woman walked in with a full Tupperware container of spaghetti and asked if she could use the kitchen to heat it up. Not like, a quick snack. Full pasta dinner. She said she was "testing the microwave" to see if it had good power. Meanwhile, a guy in the living room was measuring the walls because he wanted to make sure his sword collection would fit. Not decorative swords. Battle-ready medieval weapons. His words. Then a couple spent forty-five minutes in the primary bedroom with the door closed, and when I finally knocked to check on them, they said they were "manifesting ownership energy" and needed privacy. The actual qualified buyer who came through? She stayed for three minutes, grabbed a cookie, and left without a word. I stood in that kitchen for four hours, watched someone's spaghetti rotate in a microwave that wasn't mine, and didn't get a single serious lead. But sure, open houses are a great way to generate business.
