Conducting Business Safely During COVID-19

It's amazing how our lives have changed in the last couple of months since things started being locked-down/ quarantined to "flatten the curve".  Shopping, movie theaters, school, college, work, dining, etc.... And the experts say it will never be the same. The cool thing, though is that we are GREAT at adapting, being flexible, and overcoming odds. While things will (and have changed) we're going to find a way to accomplish our goals and dreams. 

Things certainly have changed in Real Estate. Like other businesses, we talk about being "Open For Business", just not "Business As Usual."  During this time, everyone's safety is paramount. Whether we're showing homes with buyers, or meeting with homeowners to prepare and get their homes on the market to sell, we're taking serious safety precautions. 

Here are some of the precautions being taken by The Litchfield Company.​
Meeting w/ Clients 
  • Conduct initial meeting via videoconference if at all possible (Zoom, Facetime, Google Hangouts, etc.)
Showings
  • Exhaust all virtual showing options before meeting in person
  • Meet at the property. Drive separately
  • If another agent is showing the house when we arrive, wait outside until they are finished
  • Practice social distancing (6 ft rule) at all times
  • I will wear disposable gloves 
  • I will wear a mask
  • I will have disinfectant wipes/spray to disinfect all surfaces that are touched  at the end of showing
  • I will open all doors, cabinets, turn on lights, etc. for you
  • I will have disposable gloves and hand sanitizer for you after the showing
Open House
  • I  will work with my sellers to come up with an individualized plan to safely conduct regular open houses for my listings.  Typically,  I will allow one potential buyer (couple/family unit) into the home at a time, encourage social distancing, and provide hand sanitizer as they enter and exit the home.
The Journey to Closing
I will continue to attend various benchmarks that occur after a home is Under Contract by following recommended safety protocols (masks, gloves, social distancing)
  • I will attend home inspections
  • I will attend appraisals for my listings
  • I will attend CL 100 inspections 
  • I will participate in Walkthroughs and Homeowners' Orientations
  • I will participate in the Closing
  • I will continue to be a resource to my clients after Closing

(Note: 5/12/2020 As we progress as a nation through this Pandemic, safety precautions may change based on a variety of factors. Please know that I care about my clients and will make every effort to provide a safe and enjoyable experience or you. If at any point you have a question or a concern, just ask!)
