When touring homes with buyers I always assume that someone is watching or listening or both. Houses have doorbells that can see and hear and some have smart speakers on the kitchen counter. There may be cameras throughout the house.
Sometimes homeowners will hold it against the buyer who comments on how ugly the couch is.
Sellers can get pretty worked up about what they see and hear.
If you are touring houses it is best to hold your comments until you get far enough away from the house so that the doorbell camera can’t hear you. On the other hand, if you have something to say that you want the sellers to hear and you believe they can hear you go for it!
