Open House Tours
Join us for our weekly Tour Marketing meeting to promote a listing, hear about what’s on the market and what’s coming up, share wants/needs and see some friendly faces! Meetings are held on Thursdays at our office, 2525 Main St., Soquel from 9 – 9:30 AM.
How to Access the Tour Sheet:
The tour sheet will be available on this page Wednesday mornings at 9 am.. You may also have it emailed to you by signing up for our email distribution list with Katy Clark . Copies will not be available for pick up at our office.
How to put a listing on the Open House Tour:
To put an Open House on the tour, it must be listed on the MLS with the sponsor of “Santa Cruz County Association of REALTORS” and SCCAR chosen as the Association, by 2pm on the Tuesday prior to the tour. Tours can be cancelled up until 3:00 on Wednesday. To cancel a tour, send an email to Katy Clark with the Area, MLS# and street address of the listing. Tour will be posted online Wednesday morning by 9 am.
**UPDATE COMING: Changes to Tour Submission Process Effective June 5, 2025**
Starting with the June 5 tour, all submissions must be entered into the MLS by Wednesday at 12:00 PM. The previous additions/cancellations sheet will no longer be used.
We anticipate that this adjustment will improve overall efficiency by allowing more preparation time.
Cancellations after the deadline must be emailed directly to Katy Clark at kclark@mysccar.org.
For late additions, members are welcome to join the Thursday tour meeting at 9:30 AM, either in person or via Zoom. Please note that no additions sheet will be created.
