Can I hold my own Open House instead of my realtor doing it?

I want people to feel comfortable and not pressured while looking at the house, so I was thinking about holding my own Open House. Maybe that makes people more uncomfortable having the owner there? I have a realtor though, so I don’t know if this is ok to do? Also, I don’t want nosy neighbors coming in and I can prevent this if I’m the one holding the Open House.

Can open house be advertised towards realtors and their clients only?

I am FSBO, but in the MLS system via a disounted broker. I am actually offering 4% to agents to bring me a buyer.

I want to have a few open houses to gain exposure, but do not wish to deal with all the nosy neighbors and window shoppers. So I am curious if you can advertise to all selling agents for an open house for them to bring by the clients. This way they could just drop in without any appointment, or come by themselves and see what the home is like, even if they did not have a client at that time.

I have two extrmely nosy, pushy neigbbors who I have ben at odds with over the years. They keep asking me when I’m having my open house, as they want to see inside my home. For some reason they think they have a right to come in as if I’m the local super market now that I’m selling my home. I wish to avoid this. Would the above strategy be wise, or would it work?
