Florida’s Stay-at-Home Order & Working With The Sandberg Team

By Leave a Comment

Let’s call it “business as (un)usual”.

Starting today, Florida will officially be under a stay-at-home order. Like other states with similar restrictions, we’ll be able to get out for essential activities such as grocery shopping and the like. But otherwise, we’ll be homebound, in efforts to flatten the curve.

What does that mean for real estate?

Residential real estate is considered an essential business in Florida. So real estate agents, like us, are able to continue working to help home buyers and sellers. And while business will carry on, it will be anything but “usual”. And that’s OK.

We plan on continuing to serve customers, safely and responsibly. To do that, we’ll adhere to one simple guideline:

Maximize the use of virtual tools wherever, whenever and however possible.

3 Things That (On Their Own) Don’t Guarantee a Home Sale

Tips for Home Sellers

Silver bullets are hard to come by in any industry. And real estate is no exception. There’s no one tactic that will always lead to a sale.

Sellers can be, let’s say, unreceptive, to this fact, however. They may have been told by a friend, co-worker, relative or neighbor that, “If your agent would just do X, you’ll have your home sold in an instant…worked for me.”
