The COVID-19 outbreak has dramatically changed the real estate industry. While virtual reality and virtual tours were already becoming increasingly popular before the pandemic, they are now the new norm. Aside from governmental mandates and guidelines to practice social distancing, many buyers and sellers are voluntarily steering clear of other people in an attempt to protect themselves and others. With that said, many buyers will want to view the property in person, in which case it’s essential to follow stringent precautions.
