Our Community Is Our Priority
Overview
CAMBRIDGE, ON – The impact of COVID-19 is evolving daily and affects the way we live, learn and work. We know that health and safety is the first priority right now and the Cambridge Association of REALTORS® (CAOR) is here to help as you work to fit professional continuity into your emergency response.
CAOR continues to promote full compliance with the advice and regulations set out by public health authorities, and will continue to promote social distancing while essential business transactions are conducted to protect our community from COVID-19. REALTORS® are fortunate to have a wide variety of tools and resources available to conduct contactless meetings and transactions which include but are not limited to: virtual open houses, electronic documents and signatures when signing agreements, using electronic funds transfers in lieu of certified cheques, video conferencing to replace face-to-face meetings and more.
As REALTORS® and community leaders, we must do our part to help limit the spread of COVID-19 while continuing to support our clients who need our expertise.
