Should I continue to show my home after I have accepted a conditional offer?

Do I have an obligation to show my home if I have agreed to a conditional offer?

We get this question a lot!

Almost 40% of all conditonal real estate transactions "fell through" in 2021. This means that conditions on the deal were not satisfied causing the transaction to fail.

You are more than welcome to show your home and accept back up offers. In the event that your original conditional deal fell through, the first back up offer would take precedent. Moreover, there is an industry expectation that with reasonable notice provided, sellers continue to keep their listing live and accept / facilitate showing requests.

So! It is completely up to you if you want to remove your home from the market once you have a conditional deal in place or continue to show your home and consider accepting backup offers.

Please notify Bōde of your conditional sale within 48 hours to ensure we update your listing on MLS and remain compliant with board regulations.
