🏠Open Houses

Rechat’s Open House Registration Page gives you a simple, professional way to collect visitor information and turn open house attendees into organized leads.

Guests can sign in using a phone, tablet, laptop, or desktop computer. They can enter their information on a shared device or scan the event’s QR code to register using their own phone.

After someone registers, Rechat automatically adds them to your People Center, tags them as an open house lead, and preserves the event details for future follow-up.

The Open House Sign-In Page displays the property, event information, host details, QR code, and guest registration form.

How Open Houses work in Rechat

With Rechat, you can:

  • Create an event for an on-market or off-market property.

  • Designate the Rechat member hosting the open house.

  • Create a guest-facing Sign-In Page.

  • Display the page on nearly any device with a web browser.

  • Collect registrations even if your shared device temporarily loses its internet connection.

  • Let guests scan a QR code and register on their own phones.

  • Automatically add attendees to your People Center.

  • Find everyone who attended a specific open house.

  • Add notes, reminders, tags, and automated follow-up.

Automatic pages for your MLS open houses

If the property is your listing and you schedule the open house in the MLS, Rechat automatically creates the Open House Sign-In Page for you.

On the day of the event, Rechat places a link to the page on your Today Page, giving you quick access when you arrive at the property.

You only need to create a page manually when:

  • The open house was not scheduled through the MLS.

  • You are hosting an open house for another agent.

  • The property is off-market.

  • An automatic page was not created for the event.

Best practice: Even when Rechat creates the page automatically, open and review it before guests arrive to confirm that the property, date, time, image, and host information are correct.

Before your open house

Create and test the Open House Registration Page before the event begins.

Confirm that:

  • The correct property is displayed.

  • The event date and time are accurate.

  • The correct Rechat member is listed as the host (for teams).

  • The property image and contact information look correct.

  • The registration form opens and submits successfully.

  • The QR code directs guests to the correct page.

You can then open the page on the device guests will use and save or share the QR code as an additional registration option.

During your open house

Ask each visitor to register when they arrive.

Guests are required to provide:

  • First name

  • Last name

  • Email address

Guests may also provide:

  • Phone number

  • The name of their Realtor, agent, or broker

As guests register, Rechat automatically adds them to your People Center and applies the following tags:

  • OpenHouse

  • Lead

You can review new attendees, add notes from your conversations, and create reminders while the information is still fresh.

After your open house

Use the Open House filter in your People Center to find everyone who registered for a particular event.

From there, you can:

  • Review each attendee’s information.

  • See when and where they registered.

  • Review comments and Realtor information.

  • Add notes from your conversation.

  • Create a follow-up reminder.

  • Send an email or marketing communication.

  • Add attendees to a Flow.

  • Apply additional tags.

  • Organize attendees into a list.

Best practice: Follow up within 24 hours while the property and your conversation are still fresh in the attendee’s mind.

Online and offline registration

The shared Sign-In Page can continue accepting registrations if its device temporarily loses its internet connection.

Rechat stores those registrations on the device and uploads them after the device reconnects.

Offline registration only applies when guests enter their information directly on the shared device.

Guests who scan the QR code must have an internet connection on their own phones to open and submit the registration form.
