MAR Coronavirus Update 10-26-2020 Tags: AnnouncementsCOVID-19

As the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic continues, Minneapolis Area REALTORS® is committed to providing members the latest information on our response while also protecting the health of our members and staff.

In accordance with the State of Minnesota requirements for preventing the viruses’ spread, MAR’s Board of Directors has extended the cancellation of all in-person classes, meetings and events through June 30, 2021. In-person member support also is not available during this time.

Why is MAR taking this step?

MAR’s Board of Directors believes this is the best way to ensure business continuity while also protecting health.

Is it possible in-person classes, meetings, and events will resume sooner than June 30, 2021?

We are continually monitoring the situation and will keep members updated on any additional changes to our operations.

How do members attend classes?

During this time continuing education classes are being offered online. You can access online courses through the MAR website and through The CE Shop.

What if members need to pick up items from the MAR store?  

The MAR office is open for no-contact pick-up service during the following dates/times:

Tuesdays 1:30 – 4:30 p.m.

Thursdays 9:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.

Effective Tuesday, November 3, no-contact pick-up service will be available during these dates/times (excluding December 29-30):

Tuesdays and Wednesdays 1:30 – 4:30 p.m.

During this time of reduced hours at our physical location, the second set of doors will remain locked with signage directing members to contact staff by phone. Staff will use the front vestibule to place purchased items such as lockboxes or signage to avoid person-to-person contact. Payments for store items and MLS fees must be made online or by phone. Membership applications and forms need to be submitted electronically.

When can members get assistance via phone and email?

As always, members can contact staff via phone at 952.933.9020 and online at info@mplsrealtor.com between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. Please check our website for other information at http://mplsrealtor.com.
