A lockbox is a device that is placed on your door to allow Realtors to easily show your home. There are several different styles of lockboxes but each one is designed for the same function, to securely store your house key. They allow you to have showings when you are not home. It is a good idea to not be home for showings so that the buyers will feel more comfortable discussing and viewing your home. This will enable the Realtor to provide feedback even if the buyer decides not to make an offer. If you are interested in buying, selling or renting a home, call one of the outstanding agents at Tiered Real Estate.
