President's Message - April 9, 2020

Good Morning WSGVR Family and Guest, 

My name is Mindy Yeh, your 2020 President. Thank you for attending our second virtual MLS Breakfast Meeting and thank you to our special guest, Mr. Paul Cheng, Candidate for District 4 Arcadia City Council. Arcadia District 4 Residents. Please mail in your ballots ASAP or by next Tuesday, April 14, 2020, as you know every vote count. 

With our nation and our real estate associations facing the unprecedented time, I wanted to reach out to thank you for your continued support as a member of the West San Gabriel Valley REALTORS®. I would like to share with you some of the good news that The National Association of REALTORS® and California Association of REALTORS® worked hard to keep our REALTORS® status in the Capitol Hills during the COVID-19 crisis.

On March 30th, C.A.R. has launched the COVID-19 Relief Hotline, a one-stop resource offering one-to-one assistance with respect to applying for the various relief mechanisms that are in place at the state and federal levels. “You can contact C.A.R.’s COVID Relief Hotline by calling (213) 351-8450, again that is (213) 351-8450 Monday-Friday, 8:30 a.m. – 4:45 p.m.” 

On March 27th, President Donald Trump signed the “Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act’’ (CARES Act), a bipartisan bill providing financial relief to individuals and businesses impacted by the coronavirus. The $2 trillion package includes provisions that may assist our members through this crisis. C.A.R. worked with NAR to ensure these REALTOR®-supporting provisions remained in the final bill:
  • Forgivable Small Business Administration Loan
  • Pandemic Unemployment Assistance
  • Direct Payments to REALTORS® 
I hope you continue practicing the social distancing, stay safe and healthy. Thank you for your attendance and please join us next Thursday, April 16, 2020, at 9am. Topic will be Escrow Panel. 

Wishing all of you a Happy Good Friday and Happy Easter Sunday! 

Mindy Yeh
2020 WSGVR President
