Homebuyers Print a Tour Sheet

Openhouses.com (plural) allows homebuyers to search open house listings in over ten US real estate markets. The website needs improvement (better display of dates and times) to view the open house - but still it gives internet homebuyers the ability to narrow down their home search by beds, baths and price. Then they can map it and print a Tour Sheet of the desired open homes to view without an appointment scheduled. Openhouse(s).com is owned by Tribune Interactive who has an online presence both locally and nationally. They operate news and information sites in 25 major markets -- including 10 of the top 12.

I posted an article about Openhouse("- the s").com a while back and raised attention to its resources. Below is the list of Openhouses.com listing resources. They, unlike openhouse.com, do not only show homebuyers open houses from preferred brokerages - also take note that the site includes FSBO open houses. When the Sell-Side buys an advertisement to market the open house in the below mentioned newspapers it (not sure if there is an additional fee) is listed online at openhouses.com
