How To Find An Open House

Click to Go To Realtor.ca Open House Search

As much as every Sales Representative and Broker wants you to search using their website to look for homes,  Realtor.ca is the best and most complete option for homes listed with Realtors.  Realtor.ca can also be used to search for open houses.

The first place a professional Realtor posts their open house is on the MLS for other Realtors to see.  Realtor.ca is the public version of the Realtor’s MLS and uses the same database .  Every website other than Realtor.ca is missing information and is just a subset of what is available.  Don’t waste your time, either ask your Realtor or if you don’t have one yet, visit Realtor.ca.

Keep in mind that the chances of finding the home you will purchase by driving around to open houses is 1 in about 400 (according to the National Association of Realtors).  The sooner you start working with a Realtor, the easier the overall process will be.  In Ontario, it is the seller that usually pays the commission of Buyer’s Realtor.  That means the buyer does not have to pay to have a Realtor protect their interests.
