What an open house sign-in sheet is for

It does two jobs. It gives you a record of who came through the door, and it gives you people to follow up with afterward. Most open house visitors are neighbors or people who are just looking, so the sheet is how you find the few who are actually in the market.

What to put on it, and what to leave off

Name, phone and email are the basics. After that, add one or two questions that help you decide who to call first. Whether they are working with an agent and how soon they want to buy do most of that work. A mortgage pre-approval question can help, but some visitors find it pushy, so I leave it off by default.

Every extra column costs you sign-ins. If the sheet looks like a form at the DMV, people walk past it. Start short and only add a column when you know what you will do with the answer.

Paper or digital

Paper is fast, works with no signal and nobody has to unlock a phone. The downside is handwriting and typing it up later. A QR code that opens a short form on the visitor's phone fixes both, but some people will not bother scanning. Plenty of agents run both: a paper sheet at the door and a QR code on the same page or on a sign by the exit.

What to do with the sheet afterward

Follow up within a day. Ask what they thought of the home and whether they want to see anything similar. If you also want to learn what people thought of the home itself, and pass that on to the seller, use a short feedback form as well. I built a free open house feedback form maker for that. The sign-in sheet is for leads, the feedback form is for the property.

If you add a feedback link to the QR block above, visitors can scan on their way out. You can also turn that into a printable QR code sign for the front door.

Getting the feedback to the seller without the typing

ViewingFeedback gives every listing its own feedback link and QR code. Visitors answer a few questions on their phone with no app to download, and the answers roll up into a seller report that stays up to date. You can see how it looks in the demo, and read more about feedback without an app.

Frequently asked questions

What should an open house sign-in sheet include?

At minimum a name, phone number and email. One or two qualifying questions, such as whether the visitor is working with an agent and how soon they want to buy, make follow-up far more useful. The more you ask, the fewer people fill it in, so keep it short.

Is a sign-in sheet required at an open house?

Requirements vary by state, brokerage and seller, so check with your broker. Many agents use one anyway because it records who came and gives them people to follow up with.

Can I use a digital sign-in instead of paper?

Yes. Paper is quick and works without signal or a charged phone. A QR code that opens a short form is a good middle ground. Some agents keep paper as a backup.

How do I follow up with open house visitors?

Reach out within a day while the visit is fresh. Ask what they thought of the home and whether they want to see anything similar. If you plan to text them, check your state and brokerage rules on consent first.

Is this sign-in sheet free to print?

Yes. It is free to use and print, with no signup and no watermark. Nothing you type is stored.

Want feedback from every visitor collected for you?

ViewingFeedback gives each listing a link and QR code, and turns the answers into a seller report.
