The tough part now is getting a solid offer that isn't contingent on the sale of someone else's home. It seems like that's the offer most people want to put out there right now, I refuse to make an offer like that at this point because I lose all leverage in negotiating.
Even though I have a signed offer on my house right now I doubt it goes through, I'm so reliant on the other people selling their home we're trying to get as many people through as possible in the hopes of getting an offer with no contingency to sale. Week 2 for me, had a showing Thursday, 2 yesterday, 1 tonight.......

It all depends on how attractive their current place is and how aggressively they've priced it.
Private showings are such a pita. Clean the shit out of the place and gtfo, so someone can take a look for 20mins. At least you get to do it on the other end.
