Paragon Problems? Try Clearing your Browser Cache

If you’re experiencing problems in Paragon such as blank screens, pop ups not popping up, autofills not autofilling, you may need to clear your web browser’s cache. Cache is a collection of files on your PC in the background that allow Paragon to function. Sometimes those files get corrupted or deleted and they need to be refreshed.

CheckMate Educational Period Ending

Please note that the educational period for CheckMate, our MLS Compliance Tool is coming to an end today, 10/31.

What this means for you:

  1. If a violation is found on your listing, you will receive a violation notice from CheckMate.
  2. If CheckMate sent the notice in error, do not stress, we check them each morning and will send a follow up email.
  3. If it is a true violation with a fine associated, your Broker will receive the invoice for this during the next monthly billing cycle (1st week of the subsequent month).

Thank you and Happy Halloween!

We have seen a few scam attempts making the rounds lately, so here is a quick reminder of ways to stay alert:

What to watch for:

  • Fake Zoom invites:  Scammers pretending to be buyers or sellers may insist on sending you a Zoom link. These links can be dangerous – don’t click unless your’re sure its legit.
  • Gift card requests: if someone texts or emails asking you to buy gift cards or send money through a third party, it’s a scam. No one from your office should ever ask you to do this.
  • Unknown numbers: if a number doesn’t show up in Forewarn or Domii, take a minute to double check before responding.

Quick tips:

  • Do not click on links from people you do not know.
  • Never buy gift cards or transfer money for someone who contacts you out of the blue.
  • If something feels off, trust your gut – check with your Broker or fellow Agents before taking action.

Stay safe and do not hesitate to reach out if you’re unsure about a message or request.
