Since 1928, the Pacific Southwest Association of REALTORS® has played a significant role in shaping the history, growth and development of the Real Estate industry in San Diego County.

The U.S. House passed legislation Thursday providing a fresh round of funding for coronavirus small-business relief programs championed by the NAR.

President Trump is expected to sign the measure, which will clear the way for lending to resume as early as Friday under two Small Business Administration programs, the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and the Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) Program.

Under the agreement, the PPP will receive $310 billion in new cash, while the EIDL fund will receive an additional $60 billion. The bill sets aside $60 billion of the PPP funding for small and medium-sized community banks, which will provide extra help for self-employed individuals and small businesses that don’t have relationships with larger banks.

“The PPP and EIDL had tremendous demand. Although the rollout was rocky, this latest bill should provide enough funds for everyone who needs a loan to get it. REALTORS® still waiting should contact their lender again and keep trying,” says Shannon McGahn, senior vice president of advocacy for NAR. “We have a wealth of resources to help you through the process, including a new video just posted last night.”

Quick Guidance for REALTORS® on the PPP and EIDL

• If you’ve already applied for an EIDL: The SBA is processing applications already in their system on a first-come, first-served basis. You do not need to reapply.
• If you have not already applied for an EIDL: Check back at the SBA application page once the additional funding is signed into law. 
• If you’ve already applied for a PPP loan through an SBA lender but have not been approved yet: Check with your lender to see if they are maintaining a queue of applications during the lapse or if you will need to reapply when the renewed funding comes through.
• If you have not applied yet for a PPP loan through an SBA lender: Have the application form filled out and your documentation ready to provide to your lender. (For businesses with employees, have payroll documentation; for independent contractors, have your 2019 Form 1040, Schedule C, and 1099-MISC.) If you have an existing relationship with an SBA lender, you should go to that lender first once the program reopens, but be prepared to try multiple lenders, which you can find on the SBA site.

You may have heard reports of the SentriLock app not working (It only affected the iPhone). 

This week SentriLock released an update to the app to correct this issue.

To update on iOS devices, click here: https://apple.co/2cYf1T9

Agents using an iPhone with the app would experience the following:

They open the app to attempt to access an older style Lockbox, they select View Nearby Properties.  If the Lockbox is not assigned to a listing, they will attempt to enter the Lockbox Serial Number and attempt to get a mobile access code.  The issue with the app on iPhones was that our app would not generate a 1 day code when having to search by the serial number. 

This issue has been corrected and agents should go to the app store to download the updated version of the SentriKey Real Estate app.

More features = more ways to make you look good.

Please note that on March 3, SentriLock will require that an app update is performed, prior to its use.

To set auto updates on iOS devices, click here: https://apple.co/2cYf1T9
To set auto updates on Android phones, click here: https://bit.ly/2FTxoEy

All these new features will be available on February 25, so be sure to update your app that day, or set your phone or tablet on auto update right now so you won’t miss out.
