In response to Federal, State and Territory Government Department of Health recommendations related to Coronavirus, First National Real Estate is strictly observing all essential health precautions nationally. Open homes have therefore been cancelled where required, as have traditional auctions, and we are offering private or digital inspection appointments and online auction arrangements as alternatives – where permitted.

In all locations where normal real estate operations continue:

• We’re avoiding direct contact, such as shaking hands
• Observing social distancing requirements
• Maintaining contact records
• Deferring non-essential property inspections or conducting them remotely
• Working with customers responsively on specific arrangements, where necessary

These temporary changes are intended to underpin the essential functions of the property market as well as to reassure customers that all necessary precautions are being observed.

While the presence of Coronavirus requires us to observe all sensible precautions, the business of real estate continues and it’s essential that we support customers who are selling their homes as well as the needs of our tenants and landlords.

In all other respects, we’re getting on with the job of selling, renting and managing property at First National Real Estate, and optimistically working with our community as Australia responds to the effects of Coronavirus.
