How to Schedule Home Tours for South Austin Listings
(And how to avoid the classic mistakes that make the process way harder than it needs to be.)

And somewhere in the middle of all that, buyers still manage to make the same scheduling mistakes over and over again.
So let’s talk about how to do this the right way.

Good news: they exist. Better news: I know exactly where.
