Open Houses Are the Best Free Real Estate Education Nobody Uses Enough - Miami Experience after seeing 300+ homes
We’ve walked 300+ open houses this year across Miami, San Francisco, the Bay Area, and LA - and we’re heading out again this weekend.
The biggest lesson: if you walk the right open houses, you learn the market faster than almost anywhere else. You see what buyers actually value, what sellers are overpricing, which renovations matter, and what listing photos quietly hide.
In our latest video, we compare Miami and San Francisco using real listings we track. Miami has plenty of homes sitting, cutting prices, and waiting. The Bay Area is a different animal - many homes we walked already sold, often above asking.
Same process. Two very different markets.

Curious - do you treat open houses as market research, or just weekend real estate theater?
