Real Estate is an Essential Service
Real Estate Now Listed as an Essential Service
in March 28, 2020 Federal List of Essential Critical Infrastructure Workers
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) updated its list of essential services during the coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis and expressly included residential real estate. Since Governor Newsom’s March 4, 2020 order incorporates this list, the order now includes residential and commercial real estate, including settlement services, as essential services in California. However, if a city or county has an order with a more restrictive standard regarding what qualifies as an essential service, or more restrictions on activities, those guidelines will still govern the activities of a licensee. You can read the full CISA memorandum here.
Notwithstanding this new development, all real estate licensees must take into account the health and safety of their clients and fellow licensees, and follow the existing protocols for protecting against the spread of COVID-19. If such health safeguards and protocols are not followed, the rule for the state could easily change to stop or restrict all real estate activity. To that end, in conformity with current health guidelines, real estate licensees should follow all CDC and local health mandates.
1. No open houses should be held.
2. Showings should be done virtually, if at all possible.
An updated FAQ and more information on recommended best practices will be posted on the car.org/coronavirus website as soon as practicable.
All Events, Classes & Committees are Cancelled
As you know, our community, state and nation are deeply and rightly concerned about the Coronavirus (COVID-19). To protect our members, we have cancelled all public and private meetings, events & classes at the association. If you have paid a fee for a class or event we will be putting a credit on your HDAOR account. All events are cancelled through April 2020. At that time we will reevaluate the future events.
We are committed to ensuring that there is no lapse in our service or support during this time. Our office will remain open to all calls and emails, however our doors will remain closed.
We hope that you remain safe and healthy through this difficult time.
Many services can be done online or over the phone!
