New Hub Locker Benefit
VBR's new Realtor® Hub Locker pickup service is a quick, easy and free convenience available to our members! It's similar to Amazon's locker pickups with four lockers outside the VBR for evening, weekend, and holiday pickup of any item. Hub Lockers work with your SentriLock app, allow you to pick up items when we are not around, and help limit interaction during this uncertain time.

Sentrilock Changes
The VBR and VMLS Board of Directors have approved to change its MLS Rules and Regulations not to allow affiliates and unlicensed individuals to have Sentrilock access. Appraisers are licensed and this change will not affect them. The reason for this is due to the liability of providing access to unlicensed individuals. This change was approved on April 28, 2020, and was implemented on July 8. The Realtor® must grant access to affiliates moving forward. We understand this isn't ideal, but we do have an easy solution.
The SentriConnect Mobile App allows the listing agent to grant temporary access to their lockboxes that are assigned to a property for those who don't already have access like contractors, inspectors, and photographers. SentriConnect allows the listing agent to grant access to a specific lockbox for a specific duration of time and receive instant notifications of when the SentriConnect user accesses the lockbox.

Eagle County- Phase 3 - Black Diamond
Eagle County is now in an Amended Black Diamond Phase.
July 17, 2020 - Eagle County Public Health and Environment has updated the county’s Public Health Order regarding COVID-19. In alignment with the county’s Transition Trail Map and with modifications in accordance with a variance from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE). You are encouraged to read both to be aware of requirements.
Specifically, face coverings are required in public indoor settings. “We are taking this step now to protect the progress we’ve made, as well as our near- and long-term goals of a successful school year, ski season and beyond,” said Commissioner Kathy Chandler-Henry. “We believe the potential inconvenience of wearing masks is a small price to pay to protect that future.”
Also, private gatherings are limited to ten individuals, and business group sizes are limited to up to 100 people indoors and 175 people outdoors as long as 6 feet of distance between non-household members can be maintained.
Current disease surveillance data has pushed Eagle County into a cautious state with recent increases in spread noted in the county and region. In addition, state and national transmission data continues to increase with several states slowing down their reopening plan in advance of the holiday weekend. “Our ability to keep the virus in check and slow the spread at a community level is based on our individual behaviors,” said Heath Harmon, Director of Eagle County Public Health and Environment. “The recent increases in Eagle County warrant everyone’s caution. Whether you are a local or a visitor, we want you to reduce contact with others and remain vigilant with the Five Commitments of Containment.”
-I will maintain 6 feet of distance
-I will wash my hands often
-I will cover my face in public
-I will stay home when I am sick
-I will get tested immediately if I have symptoms
