Instead, we are showing properties through private inspections to ensure the health and safety of buyers, our clients who are selling their homes and our staff here at Century 21. Please contact one of the listing agents to book an inspection. If you do not feel comfortable viewing the property we are offering inspections via Facetime or video call. Thank you for understanding as we adapt to help our clients sell, buy, and keep the local market in Newcastle moving.
