AND if you stayed on premise while the house is being shown, than that itself is not helpful to the sale. Most people leave.

You're so right. I'm selling my NY home and since 30,000 people either know me personally or by name, the realtor has strict instructions:
No open houses, by appointment only
Qualified buyers only
Otherwise there would tons of "tourists" and "sightseers" plodding through the house.
