The unpredictable and unprecedented events have certainly taught us all how quickly life can drastically change. We have been provided guidelines and tools from the most experienced medical and scientific professionals in order to remain safe and healthy. We heed their advice to the very best of our abilities in order to protect ourselves, our families, and our communities from a potentially devastating outcome.
In many ways the circumstances and urgency caused by the corona virus parallel the devastating and catastrophic effects that can occur from the natural disaster of flooding. The potential for loss of life, property and prosperity are all outcomes that have occurred when the advice of the experts is taken lightly or ignored completely. MCC is here to educate and advise our communities. Please seek us out, we are here to help.
I will provide a brief summary of the current MA real estate environment.
Mid-March to mid-April the market essentially came to a halt. We struggled at first with our most basic procedures while adhering to strict safely guidelines. As an industry we rapidly adapted to virtual showings, open houses, client meetings and closings. We educated our clients, we behaved responsibly and we helped people move forward. As a result I am thrilled to say in the past two weeks the market has significantly improved. We are transacting at approximately 65% from this time period last year. People need and want to move. We are “safely” assisting our clients through this process.
Do your part to “Stay home” We’ll do our part to “Get you home”
I truly hope this message finds you and your loved ones in good health.
