I am joined by my Sellers, Arun and Cara, to discuss what it is like to sell a home during the COVID-19 pandemic. We go over how we had to prepare the house, keep it safe and sanitized during and after showings, and their opinions on if they recommend selling a home right now.

On this episode, I am joined by my client, and recent homeowner, Sammi. She has a unique situation of seeing homes before a global pandemic, but then closing escrow in the middle of one.
