Procedures in response to COVID-19 – Updated

Our best wishes go to everyone in this difficult time. Stay healthy and safe.
At Walkom Real Estate the health, safety and wellbeing of our team, clients and visitors to our offices and properties is our utmost priority.

Updated 25.3.20

To help safeguard the property buying process we have implemented the following in our business; : all property inspections are by private appointment, no open homes are occurring at this time. Auctions will be moved to ‘online’ only. No auctions are being held ‘on site’ or ‘in rooms’.

Private inspections will continue to be conducted with strict hygiene procedures in place, to help mitigate the spread of the virus, including:
• Regularly cleaning hands with soap and water or using an alcohol-based hand rub
• Not shaking hands with colleagues, clients and open home visitors
• Comply with social distancing recommendation – keep 1.5m apart at inspections
• Where possible hand sanitiser is used at inspections
• Covering your nose and mouth when coughing and sneezing, and disposing of used tissues immediately
• Avoiding close contact with anyone with cold or flu-like symptoms
• Seeing a health care professional if they are unwell and staying away from the workplace and other public places
• Recording contact details of everyone entering a property. This is mandatory before entry
• At all times be respectful of each other

Your agent are organising inspections by private appointment in order to reduce the number of people inspecting the property at the same time. This will vary by property and agent so please contact the sales agent directly about this.
