Most IF NOT ALL showings are multiple party showings while inside the unit. You are encouraged to wear a mask if you’d like but it is not required. We ask that you keep a safe 6-foot distance from others outside your party. If you are uncomfortable viewing with others in the unit, you may request to go last and tour the unit alone when everyone else is done.
