Although real estate trades may continue, it doesn’t mean a return to “business as usual.” At this time, in-person open houses are not permitted.
Embracing digital technology is essential in order to reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission. As recommended by the Real Estate Council of Ontario (RECO), I will be employing measures such as the following technological solutions to support my clients with their real estate transactions:
- Using virtual tours, 360 walk-throughs, mobile measurement applications and digital floorplans instead of in-person viewings
- Using electronic documents and signatures, instead of paper documents
- Using electronic funds transfers instead of certified cheques
- Communicating via written communications, smartphone technology applications, and video conferencing, instead of face-to-face.
By embracing innovation and technology, I can eliminate the need for in-person interactions and continue to provide a high level of service for my clients.
Our homes are a feature in our lives even more these days. Stay safe. Be kind to your neighbours and each other.
