Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA):
The CARES Act includes a new Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) program expanding unemployment benefits eligibility to business owners, self-employed workers and independent contractors, including most REALTORS®. This means if you’re unable to work as a direct result of the pandemic and you aren’t eligible for ordinary unemployment insurance benefits, you may be entitled to PUA benefits.
·
Small Business Administration (SBA) Loans:
The federal government, through the SBA, is providing significant relief for small businesses suffering from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Most agents are likely to be eligible for loans that are being made available through the SBA. The CARES Act makes the following options available to REALTORS®:
·
Paycheck Protection Program Loans (PPP)
·
Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDL)
·
SBA Express Bridge Loans (EBL)
·
Local Ordinances:
C.A.R. has compiled lists of county and local orders relating to real estate’s status as an essential service. Note that many cities and counties are changing their guidance/orders based on local events.
These change daily, sometimes hourly.
C.A.R. is working to keep this information current, but
we encourage you to use these lists with caution and continue to check your local and county websites for any updated orders or guidance.
