Welcome back to The Open House. With the new Delta variant of COVID-19 spreading rapidly, many of you might be wondering is it safe to still try and buy or sell a house? The short answer is yes.

The Center for Disease Control (CDC) has proposed new recommendations to keep us all safe and alive. This week I wanted to share some more ways that you can protect yourself while still selling your current home or shopping for your dream home.

1) Everyone, including fully vaccinated people, should wear masks when touring homes. Although everyone has different opinions on masks, the CDC recommends that when you are entering into an indoor space, you should wear your mask. Wearing your mask while visiting properties will protect you and every person a part of the transaction.

2) Sellers, consider alternative ways to show your property. Along with photos, you can consider doing a virtual video tour, a live tour via Skype or Zoom, or even an 360 interactive property scan. That way you are limiting the traffic coming in and out of your home.

3) Wash your hands before and after you visit any property. Washing your hands can prevent the spread of the disease and will keep you healthy. It is also a good habit to keep sanitizer with you at all times just in case you cannot access soap and water.

As a realtor, I want to keep my clients and myself safe from contracting COVID-19. I will be abiding by these steps to ensure we remain healthy and safe, while still assisting throughout the real estate transaction.
