Special Message from DAR President Beau Zebley
Growing public health concerns regarding COVID-19, commonly referred to as coronavirus, take special measures to ensure the health of both REALTORS
®
and our clients.
I encourage all of you to limit REALTOR
®
/client exposure during showings and meetings, and avoid physical contact. Please make sure to ask if the client if they have been sick or felt unwell. Ride in separate vehicles. Avoid unnecessarily touching anything in a home, and wash your hands after touching light switches, door knobs, etc. during showings. If you, yourself, are not feeling well, you should avoid contact with the public at large.
Many of you have had questions regarding an extension of the licensing renewal period deadline. Governor Carney's office has assured us that favorable information regarding this will be announced shortly.
Finally, some reminders for you:
No in-person meetings will be held at the DAR office for the
next 8 weeks
. All meetings will be held via JoinMe video/conference call. Please refrain from coming to the DAR office unless absolutely necessary. Staff is accessible by phone during normal operating hours of 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Both the annual meeting for brokers and office principles on April 16 and spokesperson training on April 1 have been postponed.
Please know that we will support all efforts by federal, state, and local governments to avoid contributing to the spread of the virus and to mitigate risk to our members and staff.
We appreciate your understanding and support, and we will continue to provide updates as the situation evolves.
Sincerely,
Beau
