Frequently Asked Questions

Should I require visitors to sign in?

While you cannot force visitors to provide information, framing it as a security request from the seller or a way to receive property updates often encourages higher participation rates.

What should I do if a visitor refuses to provide their email?

Focus on building a relationship first. If they remain hesitant, try asking for a phone number or simply note their name to personalize your interaction during the tour.

How long should I keep these records?

You should retain these records for as long as your brokerage policy requires, typically at least one to three years, to maintain a trail of your marketing efforts and lead generation.
