My offer was recently accepted and we’ve begun the process of going into contract. The seller is having two open houses for the property on both Saturday and Sunday. Is it normal for a seller who has accepted an offer to continue showing the property? Two open houses seems aggressive – my fear is that they’re hoping that they will get either a higher offer or an offer that is close to my final accepted bid so that they can have a bidding war. Do I have any rights before we enter contract because of the verbal offer and acceptance or do I just have to cross my fingers and hope a higher offer does not come in before we go into contract? Would appreciate any insight, especially from experience.

Thanks all!
