Inviting villagers to your house. Question

[Paperboy012305]

When you invite villagers to your house and leave your house, I hear no villager's request done jingle. But when I let them in and wait until they're done looking, I hear a jingle. I know that if you hear a jingle, you raised a villager's friendship. Can you still raise your villager's friendship if you leave your own house while a villager wants to see it?

I don't believe it raises friendship if you leave in the middle of their visit, because it means the request isn't completed.

Are you letting them in and just waiting in the main room with them? The best way to speed up the visit (assuming that the visit is a) because they asked to come over and arranged a time to do so, or b) because they asked to visit your house "right now") is to run them through each room and talk to them once in each room. In the last room, if you wait 30 seconds or so, they'll leave on their own. You can get through the visit in about a minute this way. The only time this doesn't apply is if they just barge in when you're already in the house. In that case, it's a shorter visit and you just have to wait for them to leave.

But I only have one room, this still counts right?

Even only one room should count just fine. Just avoid walking out on 'em and let them leave when they're ready.

I mentioned the multiple rooms because the first time someone visited, I had more than one room and didn't realise they were waiting to see all my rooms, so it took almost 15 mins for them to leave. I was pretty much ready to leave myself at that point.
