Columbus REALTORS, please keep your guard up! We’ve had a couple reports this week of someone knocking on the doors of a member (personal home for sale) and one of our sellers, claiming to be an interested party asking personal and intimate questions, as well, another acting as a so called vendor (radon). Please be aware and forewarn your sellers of such types of activity. Remember – If you feel threatened, call the police.

YOU are responsible for your buyers actions Failure to follow seller’s instructions, such as wearing masks and practicing safety protocols during showings, is a violation of Article 3, Standard of Practice 3-9: “Realtors® shall not provide access to listed property on terms other than those established by the owner or the listing broker.” Sellers are well within their rights to request that those entering their home wear masks, use hand sanitizer, etc. The agent accompanying the buyers is responsible for enforcing those instructions.

Columbus REALTORS® to Reopen BY APPOINTMENT ONLY – June 25 Columbus REALTORS® will reopen to members by appointment only beginning June 25th (date has been delayed). Appointments can be made for accounting, lockbox and print shop. Masks will be required to enter the building. The original plan was to start opening the Columbus REALTORS® building on June 8. Installation was delayed for the tempered glass needed for the shields at the reception and service desks. This led to the original postponement of reopening until June 22. Further postponement is necessary as the glass for the front desk didn’t come in. New scheduled reopening is June 25. Please understand this is a short-term inconvenience to protect the long term health of both staff and members.
