Have you ever wondered if it is kosher to use the bathroom within a home that is part of a Realtor's open-house? To be honest, most Realtors or real-estate agents would frown on this type of activity since, after all, the home is intended to be (and remain) in pristine condition for prospective buyers. A poll on this very topic was conducted by the Real Estate Research Institute and the overwhelming majority of those associated with real-estate who were polled gave a definitive 'thumbs down' to anyone desiring to use an open-house bathroom. If odors or mess were left behind, it could prove to be a turn-off to an otherwise-interested buyer.
Portable Restrooms – The Perfect Open-House Solution
With all that being said, having a portable restroom discreetly positioned in the driveway of a marketed home would be something that could prove to be over-the-top appreciated by interested buyers. Perhaps someone suffers from IBS or has an urge that must be dealt with NOW – using an open-house bathroom could prove to be embarrassing if other visitors are meandering through the respective home and wish to view the home, in its entirety – including the bathroom being used – awkward to say the least. But if a portable restroom is available, no one ever has to feel embarrassment or anxiety. Once inside a portable restroom, one can take as much time as needed to take care of business, and other open-house visitors would be none the wiser.
Portable Restrooms for Open Houses and More
The bottom line is: when you have to 'go', you have to 'go'! That fact should be taken seriously when dealing with other situations where property is in the spotlight. This could include ribbon-cutting ceremonies for a new office park or a ground-breaking ceremony for a new school. These types of activities can include a large group of people – agents, builders, real-estate investors, city officials, parents, children, etc., depending on the type of ceremony involved. Having portable restrooms discreetly located, nearby, only makes sense. One never knows when the time might come for one to have to make a quick exit, and what better way to deal with 'nature's call' than having one or several portable restrooms available – especially for any bathroom emergencies.
As the saying goes: “All's well that ends well", and the last thing anyone would need would be an open house or ribbon-cutting ceremony that would NOT end well due to a bathroom emergency that had nowhere to go!
