As we enter another week of the COVID-19 crisis, no one knows what the next days to months will bring. But the Real Estate Board of New York (REBNY) is determined to offer guidance. The trade association recently launched a COVID-19 resource hub that provides the latest news, updates, and resources in one place. The website will be available to all members of the real estate industry, regardless of their membership status.
“In these unprecedented times, we continue to serve, support, and advocate for our industry” - James Whelan, President, REBNY
At a time when many of us feel helpless in the face of events beyond our control, the hub's Giving and Getting Help section offers ways of giving back and reaching out for assistance. The site lists a number of economic relief programs at the state and federal levels. The more fortunate can check Donations and Fund Opportunities for ways do donate equipment and money to worthy organizations throughout New York. Moreover, the REBNY Member in Need Fund was established in 1994 to provide grants to residential agents facing financial hardship. This section provides links to both applying and donating to the fund.
