New Statewide Reopening Guidance

by

While the state is reopening, and business will be easier to conduct, there are still some protocols that will apply, including those concerning groups where there are non-vaccinated individuals present. C.A.R. has prepared FAQs and other documents that provide the information you need to properly conduct business after June 15.

C.A.R. has created an extensive and detailed new Q&A and Quick Guide to ensure that members are in compliance and well-informed with the new rules likely going into effect, including changes for open houses and showings. The Q&A addresses the following issues:

  • Physical distancing and cleaning requirements
  • Posting rules of entry
  • PEADs and other sign-in requirements
  • Wearing of masks 
  • Requiring proof of vaccination and/or negative COVID test results
  • Addressing claims of medical and religious exemptions to wearing masks
  • Conducting door knocking activities
  • Distributing flyers 
  • Reopening offices

This is still a dynamic situation and more guidance may be issued from the state. We along with C.A.R. will continue to communicate new information about the state’s reopening that may impact your business and update the FAQ as necessary. In the meantime, please check C.A.R.’s COVID website for FAQs and other important information.

“New” Paragon 2-Page Agent Report View

by

Performance Improvement

Having issues locating data on detail report views in the MLS? Are your eyes growing tired from squinting at small font? We have the solution for you!
There is a new detail report view now available in Paragon, the “2-Page Agent Report”.

This new report view has increased font size, a larger map, and more data! You can begin using it today and can also make it your default report view.
 
To make the “2-Page Agent Report” view your default, access your Paragon “Result Options” under the “Preferences” section in the MLS. From here you can adjust your “default search result” and “default double click report view”.
 
Beginning June 22nd, this new report view will become the system double click default view for all users. If you would rather have a different view be your default you can adjust your preferences on June 22nd.
 
If you have any questions please contact Member Services at [email protected].
