As of Wednesday, February 16, 2022:
The statewide indoor mask mandate for FULLY VACCINATED PERSONS has expired. Masks are no longer required for persons accessing public spaces such as stores and restaurants.
All real estate showings (open houses, broker tours, private showings, appraisals, inspections, photography, etc.) fall within this same category and therefore MASKS ARE NO LONGER REQUIRED AT REAL ESTATE SHOWINGS FOR PERSONS WHO ARE FULLY VACCINATED.
BOOSTERS WILL NOT BE REQUIRED for people to be maskless, but businesses/agents can choose to require boosters if they wish.
All Bay Area Counties EXCEPT SANTA CLARA will follow the State example and discontinue their indoor local mask mandates FOR FULLY VACCINATED PERSONS.
Note: The public mask mandate is distinguished from the separate OSHA workplace mask and vaccine mandate(s). Different rules apply. Please consult your employer/broker.
THE SELLER MAY IMPOSE ADDITIONAL STANDARDS:
