Jill’s statement on service during the COVID-19 outbreak:
THE SHOW GOES ON is the name of our current real estate story. Housing demand is still pressing in Austin, Texas, even in the face of this pandemic! The short story is that real estate transactions are still happening this Spring even during COVID-19.
We are taking precautions (listed below) and we are taking our health and yours very seriously. We’ll get through this, together, but for many of us, life can’t wait. Some of us are facing a move, a job change, family circumstances, or unexpected life change and so my team is helping our clients navigate this with the same commitment to community service that has been guiding us for 15 years.
We are here to help and we have put together new procedures to respond to the needs of our clients and customers during the COVID-19 Spring real estate market.
