Best of Tour Guidelines:

  • The listings must be a First Time Tour

  • The agent or a representative of the agent must be on the property during the Tour

  • There must be a flyer for the listing located at the property during the Tour

  • Agents that view the property will vote for the Best of Tour by signing a Best of Tour sign-in sheet at the listing

  • Each agent can only vote for one property in each city for each Tuesday Tour

  • The "Best of Tour" sign will be allowed to be placed on the awarded property until the Monday following the Tuesday Tour, after which point the sign must be returned to the volunteer coordinator or the SAMCAR office

  • The agent or representative of the agent is responsible for picking up and returning the "Best of Tour" yard sign (a fee will be assessed for lost signs).


History of "Best of Tour"

The SAMCAR South Tour Committee originally established the Best of Tour award to draw attention to the outstanding homes in the Redwood City, Redwood Shores, Belmont, San Carlos area. Due to the popularity of this disctinction, eligibility for the Best of Tour recognition was later expanded to first time property tour listings throughout San Mateo County. Best of Tour is a volunteer-led initiative.
