Are you afraid when doing an open house viewing?

[Grant]

For you real estate agents or just anyone selling their house, do you ever get worried putting on a house viewing? If I had any houses to sell, I think I'd be very cautious about people coming into a viewing. Do you ever worry people will try to steal from your staged house? Staged as in fully furnished to show the attendees of the open house what the house could look like.

I would worry people would steal wall art, and maybe other bits and bobs left around the house for the viewing. Years ago a friend of mine stole a towel from an open house viewing because he thought it'd be funny. So I imagine it happens a lot to this day.
