Life offers lessons everyday and as far as being prepared(now or ever) - it's an issue that was much discussed in the past.  Actually, it seems to be an ongoing topic.

Business is going on 85% per usual for me. The 15% I have not figured out is getting buyers confident to write offers based on a Facetime or Virtual Tour.

Solve that and it's it's business as usual basically. Networking continues too, I have been on or hosted over 15 Zoom meetings in the last 10 weekdays, including Chamber of Commerce, Toastmasters, Trainings and One on One meetings. We pause, plan, pivot and proceed.

No real change for me as a Notary Richie Alan Naggar with the exception of a client coming in yesterday with rubber gloves and a face mask... no, I'm not ready for that as a new norm.

Will get my current transactions closed, and unless it is an emergency, most likely will not be working with buyers or sellers until this has passed.

I'm sure we'll end up with two ways of doing business.  The normal way, which will return in the summer and the Pandemic way, which will return in December/January.  We will have a second round of this Wuhan/CCP/Chinese Virus next year, but probably not as bad as some medications will be available and we'll all be better prepared.  I for one plan on buying more masks and gloves once this is all over.

Will those who govern over REALTORs allow change?

I think it will be business as usual with an ever dimenishing level of relelvant sercice and more misdirection. That how you spell TEAM.

Meanwhile every other business on the planet has become aware the consumer is very much able to make decisions without hand holding and allowed maximum choice.

C-19 did not require the proper amount of courage or deliver sufficient pain  to bring about change in real estate..

Using more caution, making clients feel more comfortable but the issue is those waiting to sell. All my listings are sold. I have buyers, but no homes to sell. My jpb know is speaking to all of the sellers one by one to see who may be ready now
