No.  I've actually turned down listings because I knew right off the bat the tenant would not allow showings.

I would not take a listing like this...period!

According to our mls rules if a property has a status of ACTIVE it must be avilable to be shown (during reasonalbe hours).

I have a few of these currently.  I do not show tenants belongings.  We are required to provide a min of 24 hours notice to show but we take a tenant's schedule in consideration.

No, I would not.

No way, this place could me a drug house. No telling what you may find in it.

I wouldn't personally but I do see listings where viewing is only allowed with 'accepted offer.'

Jack Lewitz No,what good is a listing you can't show.

Yes, if it were multi-units. Very common practice in the investor world. "Shown upon accepted offer". I did them a lot over the years, especially before I was licensed and only investing and 2006-2011; very normal in multi-unit rentals.

If it was a single unit, I'd be a little less accepting of this, but I've had problem tenants in clients' homes that we've done this for. Our board allows.

It depends. Yes, if the main attraction to the property is location and amount of land. For exampl, a 30 acre property with old run down farmhouse recentlyy went on market. House had tenants. Most buyers were interested in the 30 acres where most of the value was. You could tell from the outside that the farmhouse wasn't worth much. it's easy enough to look up the county assessment of the house to get a ballpark value.

nope, I would not.  Either have tenants ready to show or get them out or list with someone else.

Jack - I'm not sure that I would want to take a listing like that, would have to take each one case by case and assess. However, this is not unlike buying foreclosed homes being auctioned off at the county steps. Those investors do not get to see the inside, or conduct inspections, before making a cash purchase.

Every situation is unique, Jack.  Though I would take a long hard look at this type of situation before I were to take a listing like this.

NO but I've seen other agents that have.  

Yes. That you can make an offer contingent on inspections

If you have a big network of investors I might do it, clearly it is occupied & generating income. Could be a quick sale to an investor, but I think without showing the inside that is the only market. 

Not even sure if our MLS has a option for that.

Yes, it is allowed to list "exterior showings" or "driveby showings only tenant not to be disturbed".  I have seen a couple of these on single family homes as well as multi-units. I would not take listings like this. 

I have received bank listings that were occupied and no interior showings were allowed. Also receive dlistings full of mold or hazzards that no interior inspection was allowed.  Buyers do buy them but only pay seemingly half to cover them selves when not seeing the inside,
