Should I let buyers look around my property on their own?

There's no reason why you shouldn't let buyers look around your property on their own. But I would suggest that the first viewing you do with the buyer, you show the buyer your house because then you are able to point out all the positive points of the house. But then, if they want to then look around on their own, I think it's a very good idea to let them do so because then they can take their time. If they're coming with another person, they can chat about the good things that they like and they can chat about the things that they don't like and they can have a little bit of a poke-around. I think that's a good idea because it gives people confidence that you're not hiding anything.
