Episode 706: Gamify Your Open House: The Trick That Triples Visitor Engagement

Most open houses feel like awkward first dates, too quiet, too polite, and everyone’s pretending to care about the kitchen backsplash. But what if you could make people actually excited to walk through a home? In this episode, we’re bringing back a pre-COVID experiment that turned open houses into literal games. Spoiler: it worked.

Agents using open house gamification saw up to 3x more engagement and higher lead retention. Yep, just by handing out a game card or QR code, they got visitors competing, laughing, and actually remembering the house afterward.

We break down how to:
• Turn your next open house into a mini adventure with real estate gamification
• Use QR codes, Google Forms, and leaderboards to make guests feel like contestants, not strangers
• Create interactive open houses that make buyers stay longer and talk more
• Build better connections (and get more leads) through fun instead of forced small talk

This one’s for real estate agents who are done hosting quiet tours that feel like dentist waiting rooms.
