Open houses work best when the logistics are crystal clear, who’s coming, when they’re arriving, and where they’re headed. The Open House Registration Form Template from WPForms helps you collect attendee details, confirm a date/time, and display the property or campus location using an interactive map.
Exploring the Open House Registration Form Template
This template is a strong fit for real estate agents and brokerages, property managers, schools running admissions open houses, and community organizations hosting location-based events. Here’s what you’ll find inside:
- Attendee Name (First + Last): Adds each registrant to your guest list for check-in and follow-up.
- Attendee Email: Used for confirmations, reminders, and post-event follow-up messaging.
- Attendee Phone: Helpful for day-of coordination (late arrivals, parking questions, gate codes, etc.).
- Open House Date and Time (Date + Time): Captures the attendee’s intended visit window in a structured, consistent format.
- Property or Campus Location (Address) (Map Field): Shows the event location directly inside the form so registrants can visually confirm where the open house is happening.
- Questions or Notes (Paragraph Text): Lets attendees submit questions in advance (accessibility needs, parking, entry instructions, what to bring, etc.).
Customizing the Map Experience (Geolocation Addon + Map Field)
Even though this template uses the Map Field in a straightforward way, you can adapt it for a variety of open house scenarios.
It requires WPForms Pro or higher license levels and the Geolocation Addon configured with a valid Google Maps or Mapbox API key.
- Single-location events: Use one saved address to display the exact property/campus location with a clear marker.
- Multiple open house options: Add multiple locations (e.g., several listings or multiple campuses) using the location repeater.
- Enable Show List of Locations to display a readable list beneath the map.
- Turn on Allow Location Selection (requires 2+ locations + the list enabled) so attendees can pick which open house location they’re registering for.
- Branded markers: Use the Icon Library + color picker or upload a custom marker image (useful for brokerage branding or highlighting “main entrance” vs “parking”).
- Nearby bias: Enable Find Nearby Location to request browser location and bias the map/search experience toward the attendee’s area when you offer multiple events.
- Cleaner UI: Hide fullscreen/map type/street view or limit interactions (dragging/zoom) for a simple “see location and submit” experience.
