“What’s
about to happen to Houston real estate reminds me of Hurricane Harvey in that
we are bracing for impact, but don’t yet know what the full extent on the
market will be,” said HAR Chairman John Nugent with RE/MAX Space Center.
“There are consumers out there for whom finding a home is critical, however, HAR has urged all Realtor members to conduct as much business as possible online, using technology such as virtual open houses, virtual tours and electronic signature documents, in the interest of protecting everyone’s health.”
On March 20, all in-person open houses were removed from HAR.com out of an abundance of caution.
The website introduced a virtual tour feature allowing REALTORS to host and post virtual open houses and conduct virtual showings.
Consumers
can watch them live on HAR.com at scheduled times and REALTORS can
then share the recordings on their own websites and social media platforms.
