This Guide

Dear Clients, Friends and Community Members, With the current health crisis among us, we have been working diligently to keep you upto-date with regard to real estate and ways that we can help keep you safe. But, we want to do more. We have put together this COVID-19 Resource Guide for you to share important resources that we hope will help make the Stay-at-Home transition just a little bit easier. Throughout this guide you'll find clickable links to information from small business resources to health and wellness tips.

We know many of you are business owners or self-employed and that everyone is being affected in different ways. It is time we stand together as a community and I am so proud to see that happening every day.

Stay Home. Stay Healthy. Stay Connected.

Sincerely,

Monson Luxury Group Russ Lyon Sotheby's International Realty
