Home.  House.  Shelter.  Being in your home has always been important.  We are still selling homes.  Business is being done differently than we did just a month ago but we are still helping sellers sell and buyers buy their dream home.  What is it like today…with a COVID 19 pandemic?

Buyers are searching online for homes they like.  They study the pictures, the descriptions, the videos. They are doing a lot of research BEFORE they even consider going into a home.  They drive by the home and look at the neighborhood…how close the beach is or the school is or any number of things that are important to someone purchasing a home. Town websites have a lot of information a potential buyer can review. Buyers are preapproved – they have reviewed the mortgage process with their lender so they are confident in their ability to purchase.  After all this, if they still are interested in seeing the inside of a house, they call their Buyer Agent.

Next would be a private showing with as few people as possible. Buyer agent and buyer.  Perhaps listing agent or maybe not.  Everyone keeps at least 6 feet apart and doesn’t touch anything.  The Realtor will have hand sanitizer and disinfectant wipes for anything that has to be touched like doorknobs.  Respect is shown to the sellers property.  Offers will be signed online.

We understand how important it is to be healthy…safe…and home.
