Visit our website https://www.hauseit.com www.hauseit.com to learn about ways to save money on commission when buying and selling real estate here in New York City. So let's get started!

The REBNY COVID-19 Health Questionnaire screening form is designed to help promote the health and safety of all participants who may be involved with in-person showing or meeting activity for both residential and commercial real estate here in New York City. The questionnaire is just one of many precautionary measures being taken by real estate participants here in New York to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

The questionnaire is distributed to all attendees within 24 hours of any scheduled meeting or showing. Participants are required to complete and sign the form prior to attending any in-person activity. The latest version of the questionnaire asks the following questions:

Have you knowingly been in close or proximate contact in the past 14 days with anyone
who has tested positive for COVID19 or who has had symptoms of COVID19?

Have you tested positive for COVID19 in the past 14 days?

Have you experienced any symptoms of COVID19 in the past 14 days?

In the last 14 days have you traveled from another state or country for which New York state requires a mandated self quarantine period?

If you answered yes to the previous question, have you completed the 14-day self quarantine as currently required by New York State?

Now let's tackle some frequently asked questions:

How should the COVID19 health screening questionnaire be used?

The form should be provided to all parties who will be involved in a showing meeting or any other form of in-person activity. The listing agent is customarily responsible for sending the forms to all parties. Now if the owner or another third party is involved in coordinating visits, the appropriate party doing the organizing send out the paperwork to all individuals.

When should the health screening questionnaire be provided and filled out?

The form should be provided to and filled out by all parties involved with the visit within 24 hours of the scheduled in-person activity. Now the refusal or failure to answer each question may result in the cancellation of any scheduled meeting or showing, and ultimately the broker reserves the absolute right in their sole discretion to refuse entry to non-compliant
Individuals.

Are agents required to present the health questionnaire to all consumers?

Yes, when utilizing the REBNY health screening questionnaire form the broker represents that they use and present this form uniformly and in the same manner for all in-person interactions and meetings and in accordance with all federal state and local fair housing laws. Failure to use
the health screening questionnaire form in a consistent and equal manner may expose the broker to allegations of fair housing violations.

What if a participant tests positive after showing?

Any participant involved with an in-person real estate activity must notify the real estate licensee listed on the form if they become symptomatic and/or test positive for COVID19 within 48 hours of the last visit to the property.
