There's good news if you're on the fence about whether or not to sell your home this year. Real estate professionals have been working relentlessly for nearly two years to safeguard the safety of buyers and sellers during the pandemic.

They've honed their skills not only in the art of buying and selling homes but also in how to keep you safe while doing so. Professionals in the real estate industry have learned new technologies as well as safety and sanitation precautions. Those lessons continue to be important ways for agents to add value as new variants emerge.

Real estate agents stay up to date on the latest guidelines for in-person showings.

Agents don't take chances with your health. To ensure that in-person showings are safe, they follow guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the National Association of Realtors (NAR). The National Association of Realtors (NAR) offers industry-specific information to keep agents up to date on the newest suggestions and best practices.

The CDC's advice also empowers real estate agents with the know-how to use sanitization and disinfection measures during a health emergency, ensuring that you and your potential buyers are safe.

Digital Tools Can Help You Sell Your House

Furthermore, agents are well-versed in the use of technology and digital tools to properly sell your home. The National Association of Realtors (NAR) advises realtors to:

“The COVID-19 pandemic is impacting members in unprecedented ways, and raises numerous unique and novel issues for the real estate industry.”

As a result, real estate consultants have reimagined the technology and tools they utilize. Serving clients from a distance and restricting exposure to others, for example, are more vital than ever. Because limiting the number of people with whom you must deal with the sales process is one of the most effective strategies to keep everyone safe.

Agents now use a variety of methods to serve their clients in order to accomplish this, including:

• Virtual Open Houses, Tours, and Listing Appointments
• High-Quality Photos for Websites and Social Media
• eSignature
• Video Conferencing
