open houses

Realtors' welcome events

Open houses are events where a property, school, or organization welcomes visitors without requiring appointments.

Real estate agents hold open houses so prospective buyers can tour homes: We spent Saturday going to open houses in the neighborhood.

Schools host open houses for parents to meet teachers and see classrooms.

The term suggests accessibility—doors literally open to whoever wants to enter.
