Virtual Real Estate

Ginette had already been using a number of virtual tools for some time prior to the Covid shelter in place order. Having the newest processes already in place has allowed her to seamlessly adjust and continue to offer you the same high level of service while keeping you safe and maintaining the needed social distance.

Whether you are considering buying, selling or both, Ginette can schedule a virtual consultation via video conference or phone call to answer your questions, discuss your needs and provide a strategy to safely meet your goals.

In addition to high-quality professional photos and video, Ginette will utilize 3D tours and virtual open houses to market your listing. She also utilizes Coldwell Banker’s proprietary digital marketing tools to target buyers, in addition to digital marketing channels to generate the maximum possible interest.

Initial showings are done virtually online and then all live showings adhere to the health guidelines outlined by the CDC and the California Association of Realtors. We are limiting the number of people at the home, in addition to using masks, gloves, booties, and sanitizer. Buyers then viewing homes in person must have a pre-approval from a lender in place and be able to provide that to the seller. Buyers must also refrain from touching surfaces and the property will be wiped down before and after each showing.

We can review all paperwork with you on the phone, on Facebook Live, or via Zoom. We can also use electronic signatures via Docusign so you can review and sign contract documents from the comfort and safety of your home. Importantly, we can walk you through the entire process and help you set everything up.

Per safety guidelines, appraisers and inspectors will do as much as possible virtually. Some banks are even allowing appraisers to do “drive-by” appraisals. When that is not possible, we adhere to the same good practices used when showing your property to buyers. Inspectors are able to generate digital reports and review findings via video or phone, allowing buyers and sellers to maintain social distancing. When it is time to close, mobile notaries can come to you to sign any paperwork that needs to be notarized. Many escrow companies are not meeting with clients in person, but you can have a phone call or video conference to answer all of your questions and you can sign everything from the comfort and safety of your home.

We’ve made adjustments and accommodations to the process and are working “Virtually” nonstop helping buyers purchase homes and sellers sell homes. A real estate transaction can be stressful under the best of circumstances and we will do everything possible to make the process as seamless as possible.
