Estate agents: schedule property viewings online

A new listing brings a wave of calls to arrange viewings, each one fitted around the seller's or tenant's availability. With Book, each property is a service on your own booking page with viewing slots on the days you choose, and buyers book a time without calling.

On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description, all shown on your public page. Each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity.

Durations are examples. Leave the price empty on viewings and put the asking price or rent in the description.

Agree viewing days with the seller or tenant, such as Tuesday evening and Saturday morning, and open back-to-back slots then. Slots repeat weekly on the weekdays you choose until an end date. Each online booking takes one place, and a booked slot leaves your page.

Set the end date or remove the remaining slots, so the property stops taking viewings.

The booking form takes first name, last name, email and phone, plus an optional note that reaches you in the new booking email. Ask whether they have a property to sell, financing in place, and their moving timeline. Don't give the exact address in public if the seller prefers; send it by email after booking.

For buyers who want a second look, book the viewing yourself from your bookings list. First and last name are enough; with their email, the buyer gets a confirmation with a calendar file.

Buyers can't move or cancel online: they contact you, and you move the booking from your list, across properties if needed. Book doesn't email clients about changes. Your bookings sync with Google, iPhone or Mac calendars.

Book doesn't publish listings, check finances, take payments or send reminders. One booking page per business, no staff field: with several agents, create services per agent. See the guide on open house viewings with places. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
