Bothell brokerage Real Living Northwest Realtors was included in a Money magazine report in late March on selling a home without showing it and “how coronavirus is throwing the real estate market into disarray.” The article noted the firm had created a “showing protocol form” requiring prospective buyers and selling brokers to attest to certain qualifying requirements before scheduling an appointment to view the home.
Brokerage owner/designated broker Keoki McCarthy said the form is intended to limit showings to serious buyers rather than “lookie-loos” and to help sellers feel safe selling their home during these challenging times. He has invited other brokers to “feel free to use and edit the form.”
