Dont they do it incase your offer falls through? When we bought our house, they continued to have open homes and had back up offers incase ours fell through.

It should be your call. When we sold our place, they wanted to do a week day open home just in case, and I said no way. Remember you are paying the agent, so they should be doing what you want. Not the other way around.

your offer is obviously not unconditional and you will have a 5 day out clause if a better offer comes in....you will want that!
you can cancel the open home tho....if they say they want to keep marketing I would let them! if they dont care cancel. If they dont think there are buyers around call them sat and tell them you are sick and to cancel it!

Annoying as it is, if the offer falls through before going unconditional it would be good to ahve a abck up - depends what their conditions are before going unconditional really.
If it is finance but you know they have it organised, then that should be fine, but if it is other stuff then it is worth having backups.

I would say go for the open home. My sister just had two unconditional offers fall through on her home, so it's good to have back-ups.

At this stage it is bad communication between two lawyers!! Things that out lawyer was meant to do and they haven't. I thought all of these open homes had finished, but oh well, better to be safe than sorry

hate to tell you but in this current market there are a LOT of contracts not going unconditional and being extended.....and others not even settling...make sure you cross all poss options cause we are seeing chain reactions at moment causing all sorts of grief....
