REALTORS
®
& COVID-19 MASK POLICIES
|
|
Coronavirus cases are spiking in Wisconsin and the US in recent days. In response, Ashland, Bayfield and Dane Counties as well as the Cities of Glendale, Milwaukee and Shorewood
have enacted mask policies
, with more likely to soon follow. Also, several large companies (i.e. Target, Wal Mart) are requiring face masks when someone enters their store or office.
As you go about your business showing properties or hosting an open house, the GMAR would like to remind you to abide by individual community and company mask policies, as well as those of property owners and other real estate firms.
If you would like a REALTOR
®
mask, the GMAR recently ordered 2,500 and will make them available to members at no cost. We will let you know when they are available.
