Showings & Previews...yeah baby, we're doing 'em

Alright, let's get serious. Before all this virus stuff entered our lives we were on the path to buying a vacation home in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina.

Then BANG, we hit a roadblock with Covid-19 and for our family's safety and others, we're told to shelter in place until told otherwise. Wait a minute, what about our vacation home dreams?

I remember as a kid, my mom telling me we were going to town to "window shop". I was ready to buy and now I have to "window shop"! Yes, window shopping under the current condition is very doable. A knowledgeable real estate professional can and will provide you with a video walk-through of a favorite property. There's little danger in having your agent preview a property for you, assuming the property is vacant. It's even possible to facetime the visit and answer questions in real-time. Even in good times, this is an often-used technique to help a buyer 'preview' property from the comfort of their living room easy chair.

Remember, we're all in this together.
