The Jason Brown Group

I’m sure most of our clients, friends and family never envisioned spending so much time in their homes… A home for most was a place to relax after work, events and activities but it’s become THE place for work, events and activities. From a real estate agent stand-point, it’s no longer business as usual in the ever-changing world of sheltering-in-place, self-isolation, quarantines, lockdowns and general social distancing.

Real estate is considered an essential service and my group has maintained a focus on getting all of our current real estate transactions through to closing. Every deal my group has been involved with since the COVID-19 situation began has made it through to closing, including several more the past week… It’s taken a lot of work, planning and diligence to make it happen in such a volatile work environment. For clients without a pressing situation, we’ve been busy working on timing of things to jump in the market once the current situation has settled.

For home sellers in the urgent situation of already having their current home under contract, already having purchased another home, being in the middle of a relocation, or otherwise soon to be in a homeless situation, we continue to work daily to help those sellers. We’re taking all possible precautions, including the showing restrictions in place on our listings. For sellers earlier in the process or without a pressing need, we continue working closely on getting homes prepared to go on the market with a future target date in place. This allows our sellers to address any improvements, repairs and cleaning, and allows us to prepare for photos, staging and pre-marketing… Our seller’s homes are really going to shine once they hit the market!

For home buyers in an urgent situation of already having their current home under contract or sold, being in the middle of a relocation, facing the end of a lease agreement, or otherwise in a soon-to-be homeless situation, we continue working closely with our buyers to locate a home. We’re taking all possible precautions, even bringing hand sanitizer to all showings. A critical part of our success is that we choose to work with the best mortgage lenders, title companies and critical alliance partners in the area… Everyone that I personally recommend has bent over backwards to help me and help my clients get the real estate transactions through to closing!

If you’re in a situation where a move can wait, let’s put together our plan now for going on the market or starting the home search, once the health crisis has settled down. But if you’re in a situation where a move is critical, my real estate group is ready and able to assist you. Were using special COVID-19 contract addendums to help with guidance through the real estate process.

Regardless, everyone’s safety — ours, our clients and everyone involved in the real estate process — is of the highest priority to my group and we’re taking all precautions every step of the way, including no one in the same car, six foot rule, using hand sanitizer for showings, conducting virtual meetings, Facetime showings, having only principals to the transaction present, etc.
