Ever wondered if it’s OK to use the bathroom at an open home? Or whether you can bring your furry friend along for a sniff around?

Across Australia, homeowners and buyers often grapple with open house etiquette—what’s acceptable, what’s frowned upon, and what’s downright off-limits.

To clear up the confusion, Phil is joined by Stewart Bunn from First National Real Estate. With over 30 years of industry experience, Stewart shares the ultimate guide to the do’s and don’ts (including the bathroom dilemma) at open homes.
