Most listings have showing instructions that include some restrictions. The restrictions may be for safety, for accommodating a large number of showings, for the home owner's privacy or security, for the listing agent's safety, for baby's nap time, for tenant rights in rented properties, or many other reasons.
A “one-time show” is similar to an open listing in many respects, as it is most often used by real estate agents who are showing a FSBO (for sale by owner) to one of their clients.
