“As an initial step, BAREIS is waiving its fees for members directly affected by the fires, which have destroyed at least 8,400 structures. The MLS has been reaching out to broker members to get the names of agents directly affected and offer help in relief efforts. To date, BAREIS has received requests for assistance from more than 70 members who have lost their homes, and has provided over $70,000 in Visa gift cards to help them get back on their feet. The MLS has also waived fees for these members for the next 12 months, and will replace all destroyed lockboxes and keys.”
I was up in the Santa Rosa area helping BAREIS rollout their new products and services just about a week before the fires started. Breaks my heart to see the devastation. Kudos to K.B. and team for making this effort.
Great work K.B.
