That depends.  During the week, I'd say in the morning.  On weekends, I'd prefer afternoons.  It's about the traffic here in DC.

I agree with Patricia Kennedy as on the weekends I like to trick myself into thinking I am not really working and get a slower start to my days. During the work week it seems with the longer daylight hours I am working them too.

Afternoon.

Afternoon.

From a strategy standpoint, I'd prefer to show early in the day.  By late afternoon, a prospective buyer has accumulated a day's worth of distractions in their life.  I want them to concentrate on the task at hand.

I actually like to do it around mid-day.  Between 11 and 3.  This avoids any bad traffic and I have time for my other duties both in the mornings and afternoons.

William, after getting up at 5:30 AM every morning for teaching high school and coaching for over 30 years I do like to sleep in now to about 7:30 or 8 AM, so it is afternoon showings for me!

This depends on the orientation of the home and showing it in its best light. A southern rear exposure has the longest acceptable showing range usually. This was not as much of an issue up north but here it becomes almost crucial. 

Morning for sure...more time to do paperwork if needed.

I prefer to show anytime after 11am. The mornings are mine to catch up with prospecting, emails, etc.

I prefer to show homes mid morning to mid day to prevent dealing with rush hour.

In the mornings... leaves plenty of time during the day to write an offer and present in the evening.

Most likely afternoons is the best for showings.  That way it does not cut into your prospecting times in the mornings

I communicate and do paperwork first thing in the morning so my showings are often in the late morning or early afternoon

I align my showings with the availability of mt clients.....Customer is a King!

William Feela little lazy I am.....I'd prefer afternoons!

Hi William -- as others have answered, for me the time is based on traffic patterns.   I don't like wasting time(on purpose) so I try to coordinate appointments accordingly.  

Early morning showings leaves me open to work with those who cannot do mornings.

I prefer showings in the late afternoon.

In the summer I prefer the mornings, because it's cooler. In the winter I prefer the afternoons, because it's usually a bit warmer. 

I love mid and late morning. Beats the morning traffic. Most sellers are not home and we can get more quality time in. 

I'd prefer doing showings in the late morning...traffic is always better!
