We have a lender in our area who plans monthly broker caravans to homes in various developments - one Friday AM is PGA West. Another week is Mountain View Country CLub and The Citrus. Another week she does Trilogy.
The caravans start at 9 AM and we meet in one of the homes. We have water and a few light snacks or fruit and then go to view 6-8 homes.
It is a good way to learn the inventory, connect with other agents, and get their view points on various homes and their values. The sellers are happy as they like agents to view the homes. It is really helpful to the agents to connect with other agents and to see so many homes in such a short period of time.
This broker open is very well organized and helpful for so many reasons.

I like the idea of a lender doing this. It does help get you more feedback!
