How Coming Soon Listings Work

Lawrence homes reach the market through the Lawrence Board of Realtors and the Kansas City Regional Association of Realtors, and both associations follow the same core Coming Soon rules. Here is what they mean for you as a buyer:

Announced, but not open for tours

A Coming Soon home has a signed listing agreement and is officially on its way to market. The seller is preparing the home, and showings are not allowed yet - not for anyone, including the listing agent's own buyers.

The Begin Showing Date is firm

Every Coming Soon listing must carry a seller-authorized Begin Showing Date. Showings may start on that date and not a moment before; the associations back the rule with a $1,000 fine. The listing converts to Active automatically that morning.

Book your appointment ahead of time

Showing calendars accept appointments for the Begin Showing Date and later, so Bryan can put you on the schedule as soon as a home catches your eye. Buyers who wait until the listing goes active are often behind the ones who planned ahead.

The date can move, and offers can happen early

Sellers may authorize a date change, and every Coming Soon listing carries this disclaimer: sight unseen offers may be accepted, and the showing start date is subject to change. Bryan watches both for you - if the date moves or the seller signals an early sale, you hear about it right away.

Summarized from the Lawrence Board of Realtors Coming Soon policy and Kansas City Regional Association of Realtors rules. Details vary by listing; the listing itself is the final word on dates.

Get in Line Before Showings Open

Tell Bryan which Coming Soon home has your attention (or what you are looking for), and he will:

  • Book your showing for the Begin Showing Date, or the first day that fits your schedule
  • Watch the listing for date changes and price updates, and keep you posted
  • Pull comparable sales ahead of your tour so you know what the home is worth before you step inside
  • Help you weigh an early offer if the seller signals they may take one

With so many spam calls these days, a first call can reach voicemail, leave a message and Bryan saves you as a preferred contact so he answers your calls going forward.

Coming Soon Questions, Answered

What does Coming Soon mean on a home listing?

A Coming Soon listing has a signed listing agreement and has been announced to the market, but the seller is not yet allowing showings. Under Lawrence Board of Realtors and Kansas City Regional Association of Realtors rules, every Coming Soon listing carries a Begin Showing Date, and no one may tour the home before that date, not even the listing agent.

Can I see a Coming Soon home before its showing date?

No. Showings on a Coming Soon listing are prohibited for everyone until the Begin Showing Date, and the Realtor associations enforce the rule with a $1,000 fine. What Bryan can do is book your showing appointment now for the first available day, so you are among the first through the door when showings open.

Can I make an offer on a Coming Soon home?

Yes. Sellers may accept sight unseen offers while a listing is in Coming Soon status; that disclaimer appears on every Coming Soon listing. Writing an offer before touring is a judgment call that depends on the market and the home, and Bryan can help you weigh it.

Can the showing start date change?

Yes. The seller may authorize a change to the Begin Showing Date, so the date shown on a listing is the current plan rather than a promise. When Bryan has an appointment set for you, the showing service notifies him of date changes and he passes them straight to you.
