Do you have questions or are you curious on how to sell your home in the midst of
a pandemic that requires limited physical exposure? Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International
Realty places the highest priority on the health and safety of its clients, customers and
the public. Our agents are committed to providing real estate services and showing
properties in accordance with NYS and CDC health and safety standards.
Examples of the protocols we employ include:
- Showings are held in unoccupied or vacated properties
- All individuals visiting the property are required to wear a face covering and social
distance, and are instructed not to touch any of the surfaces or furnishings in the
home; - Agents clean and disinfect high-touch surfaces (e.g. handrails, doorknobs etc.)
before and after every showing; - Showings are limited to one party at a time, decision makers only;
- Agents stagger showings in order to avoid the congregation of people outside and
inside properties; - All homeowners and visitors to a property are screened to confirm that:
- They have not entered New York within the prior 14 days from any of the
states listed on the NYS Department of Health travel advisory website as an
“impacted jurisdiction; - They have not tested positive for COVID-19 and have not experienced
symptoms of COVID-19in the past 14 days; - They have not had close contact in the past 14 days with anyone who has
tested positive for COVID-19 or who is suspected to have COVID-19; - They will disclose to the agent if they become symptomatic and/or they test
positive for COVID-19 within 48 hours of the last visit to their property.
Many sellers will also have additional requirements to limit foot traffic through
their homes to serious buyers, including requiring a pre-approval from all purchasers
prior to an in-person showing.
During this pandemic, we cannot emphasize enough the importance of hiring a
professional real estate advisor to entrust with the marketing and sale of your home.
Our team of skilled, motivated and experienced agents at Daniel Gale Sotheby’s
International Realty are well prepared and eager to help sellers and buyers navigate this
process in the safest manner possible. Whether in managing multiple parties, viewing
an open house or professionally handling multiple offers on a property, you can count on
Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty to get the job done while keeping your family
safe.
