Field guide: Real Estate Showing Route Planner
A buyer-tour day is a logistics product the client experiences directly: six homes in smooth geographic order feels professional; the same six with two cross-town backtracks feels chaotic and burns the energy buyers need for decisions (showing fatigue is real — most buyers' recall degrades sharply after home five). Paste the day's properties, set showing length, and hand the buyers a tour with ETAs instead of vibes.
Defaults fit tour reality: 40 km/h suburban blend and 25 minutes per showing (15 for quick eliminations, 40+ for serious contenders — set per stop list accordingly). Showing-service appointment windows anchor as the fixed first stop. Investor clients touring 10+ properties benefit most; this is also the open-house circuit planner for agents working Sundays. Client lists stay on your device — your pipeline is yours.
Field tips
- Sequence the likely favorite second-to-last — early enough for energy, late enough that everything after compares to it.
- Pad ETAs with 5 minutes per stop for lockbox/alarm friction; nothing deflates a tour like waiting on a porch.
- For appointment-required listings, book the hardest window first and optimize the flexible showings around it.

Frequently asked questions
How many showings fit in one tour day?+
Buyer attention is the real constraint before geography: most agents cap at 5–7 homes per outing because recall and decision quality fall off a cliff beyond that. Within the cap, routing decides whether those 6 take three hours or five — and whether the day ends at a kitchen table or in traffic.
How do showing time windows work?+
Tenant-occupied and appointment-only listings come with windows; vacant-on-lockbox is flexible. Pattern: anchor the tightest window as the fixed first stop (or split the day around two rigid windows), optimize the lockbox listings between. The ETA column then tells you which remaining windows are realistic before you confirm them.
Does order really affect what buyers choose?+
Sequence effects are documented in choice research — primacy and recency both bias recall, and contrast effects mean a home is judged against its neighbors in the sequence. Agents exploit this benignly: weakest candidates early, the budget-stretcher after its cheaper comparison, the favorite late. Geography permitting, the optimizer's order can be nudged by pinning your chosen first stop.
Can I use this for open-house circuits?+
Perfectly — Sunday circuits are pure multi-stop problems with hard windows (each open house's hours). List the opens with their windows in rough time order, anchor the earliest, and check the ETA column against each window. Buyers doing self-tours of opens can use the same plan.
