These are strange and unprecedented times during this Covid-19 pandemic. Those stuck at home, essential workers and everyday heroes like those on the front lines in healthcare, emergency services, grocery store employees, food service workers, and everybody whose line of work puts them in harm’s way is trying to figure out how to navigate daily life safely. For most folks, buying or selling a home cannot be put on hold indefinitely.
Colorado Springs and Monument Buyers are still buying, sellers are still selling, and these transactions are still closing! Our Colorado Springs and Monument real estate market is still strong!
There are new guidelines in place for buying or selling a house now. Manchester Properties will help you navigate the process of buying or selling a home safely, while still maintaining our commitment to getting you the best possible deal, in the shortest possible time.
If you want or need to buy or sell a home safely, Manchester Properties is here to help! Here’s how:
Virtual Selling During Covid-19
Virtual Seller Consultations
Via Zoom or FaceTime, we can have a virtual listing appointment where you show us the home, and we can discuss our unique marketing strategy that’s designed to get you the most money in the shortest amount of time, even during the Coronavirus pandemic!
Internet Marketing
Now more than any time in history, buyers are starting their home search online. Luckily, even before the Coronavirus hit, I’ve been investing the bulk of my marketing dollars in getting online traffic. Ensuring your home is visible on hundreds of real estate focused websites is the best way to ensure real, interested buyers are seeing it.
Virtual Showings
All across Colorado, including Colorado Springs and Monument, in-person showings and open houses are off limits. To combat that, and still allow people to see your home in breathtaking detail, Manchester Properties uses the latest technology to showcase your home. We use Matterport, the leader in 3D walkthrough technology. Check it out!
Virtual Representation
When offers come in, we always take the time to explain each and every detail of the contract and supplemental paperwork. We do this for every client, even when we’re not on a Coronavirus lockdown. While we’re quarantining, however, we can do this via FaceTime or Zoom to ensure that all of your questions are answered and no detail is missed. I’ve also been using e-signature software since 2009, so we can electronically sign offers and never miss a deal!
Need to sell your home, but you’re still unsure? Let’s jump on a call so I can answer any questions you might have about selling in the current Covid-19 market.
Virtual Buying During Coronavirus
To help keep you safe, and maintain social distancing requirements, we can do a virtual consultation via Zoom or FaceTime to talk about helping you buy a home!
We can talk about what exactly you’re looking for, answer any questions you might have about the home buying process, and get you in touch with a few amazing local lenders.
After that, we’ll start sending you listings for homes that fit your criteria, and take a look at the virtual tours of the home! Wanna take a quick peek at what’s for sale? Click the button below to start browsing active listings!
Our New Normal
With in-person showings not allowed (for now), the way we do things has to change a little bit. For buying a home in this kind of market, you’ll want a REALTOR® who knows the ins and outs of the Colorado contract to make sure your earnest money is protected, and that you’re NEVER at risk. Curious what the new process looks like? Give me a call and let’s talk about it. It’s less scary when you know what you’re doing 😃
Making Offers Online
At Manchester Properties, we stay on top of the latest technology that allows us to sign and send electronic, paperless offers. We can help you make offers on homes right from your couch or kitchen table! Manchester Properties is always happy to explain each part of the contract in detail, so you’re never flying blind. And we always make sure to explain exactly how we plan on protecting you and your money. The risks are nearly non-existent.
Closing During a Coronavirus Lockdown?
No problem! Title companies in Colorado Springs and Monument are taking precautions to keep you and your family safe! Closing documents can be emailed (or mailed) to you in advance so you can read through everything and get your questions answered via phone or email, and the actual closing takes place in a safe environment that maintains social distancing requirements, and safety protocols!
