We live in interesting times.
My company, eXp Realty, and I are closely monitoring the changing landscape, and we remain committed to providing you with the services you need.
As far as sales go, we are adapting quickly, as circumstances change related to the coronavirus (COVID-19). We are updating service offerings and cooperating with our industry colleagues to give you ways to:
- Sell your property without public showings, or with limited numbers of people coming through your property
- Buy property by remote control, without physical visits, or with minimal physical visits
- Use virtual showings – 3D, aerial, and video options, both pre-recorded and live with an agent at the property
- Do contracts, loan applications, and closings remotely
Your health and safety, and that of all of our staff, customers, and clients is of utmost importance. We’re all working through this together. Here’s a helpful article: COVID-19 Beginning To Affect Real Estate, But It’s Not All Bad News
Since eXp Realty is a virtual company, our corporate operations are almost unchanged. Our company was designed to make maximum use of technology. Teleworking has been our practice since the company was founded, and we work together with tools like our virtual campus with on-line training and offices, and our private social media platform. We are uniquely positioned in the industry to adapt to the current environment.
Are you coordinating with a team that has been working together in an office and is suddenly doing teleworking? If so, you’ll find this video useful, How to Work with Your Team Remotely. It was just done by our CEO, Glenn Sanford, to share some of his knowledge.
