Open House Alert

What Is an Open House Alert?

FollowAn sameOpen House is a scheduled event where a property is made available for prospective buyers or tenants to visit and view in person.

The Open House Alert feature allows you to automatically notify leads about upcoming open houses that match their preferences. Alerts can be configured based on criteria such as city, property type, price range, open house date, bedrooms, bathrooms, and more.

                                          Alert Execution

                                          Open House Alerts are processed automatically each day between 9:00 AM and 10:00 AM.

                                          Matching open house listings will be sent to assigned leads according to the selected frequency.

                                          Important Notes

                                            If a lead does not open up to 10 consecutive alert emails, the alert will automatically stop sending to that lead. This helps protect email deliverability and reduces the likelihood of emails being marked as spam.

                                            Alerts assigned to leads cannot be deleted until they have been removed from all associated leads.
