Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker executive order impacts open houses, inspections

New executive orders by Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker will affect real estate activities. According to a press release by Cape Cod & Islands Association of Realtors (CCIAOR), COVID-19 order #54 will limit indoor gatherings to 10 people or less in private residences. Real estate professionals must ensure that open houses, showings and inspections are limited to only 10 people at one time.

Violators of the order can be fined $500 for each person over the limit. CCIAOR recommends keeping a log of attendees for real estate activities. COVID-19 order #55 requires that everyone over the age of five wear face coverings while in public. According to the press release, this will be a requirement for any public space regardless of spacing.

Selecting the Right Homebuyer's agent

Unlike most other real estate agents, a MABA home buyer's broker never represents both a buyer and seller in the same transaction so you never have to worry whether a MABA agent is really looking out for your best financial interests. A MABA buyer's agent acts as your advocate, real estate educator, advisor and negotiator, always loyal to you and dedicated to helping you find and buy the best home with the best terms at the price and showing you which homes to avoid along the way.

Fewer than one percent of the agents and brokers in Massachusetts meet our high standards.
