COVID-19 UPDATE
As much as we are all probably tired of the negative news surrounding COVID-19, we do want to assure our owners that we are staying on top of this pandemic as much as possible. As our state and counties issue court orders relating to the close of public facilities, businesses, schools, etc., we are closely monitoring the news and watching the recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) along with the World Health Organization (WHO). It is prudent to be prepared for incidents involving COVID-19 and our businesses. As this situation keeps rapidly evolving, it is imperative to keep up to date with these important links and the information found therein:
WHO: Coronavirus Updates
CDC: Coronavirus Disease Information
CDC: Coronavirus Disease Information for Travel
CDC: Coronavirus Disease Cases in the U.S.
CDC: Interim Guidance for Businesses and Employers
CDC: Interim Recommendations for US Households
CDC: Interim Guidance for Mass Gatherings or Large Community Events

3G Properties Group will continue to work hard for you to keep your best financial interests at heart. If a resident has a financial hardship and the need is brought to our attention, we will contact you, our owners, on a case-by-case basis to discuss your options. Please keep in mind that evictions are suspended at this moment and we can not file an eviction for non payment of rent until the suspension has ended. We want to help those in need the best we can without hurting our owner’s long term income. With that being said, we appreciate those that have reached out to allow a grace period if needed. This grace period is not expected but considered upon extenuating and documented circumstances. We have and will continue to protect your asset!
Since we are all staying home more these days let's get some SPRING CLEANING done! Here is a continuation from our last Newsletter of ways to stay busy and productive by clutter-clearing our homes:
April: Bath and beauty products and medicine cabinets.
- Give your daily routine a spring cleaning by sorting through all of those bottles and jars hiding in medicine cabinets, on counters and in drawers.
- Toss expired makeup and skin-care items, as well as anything you do not use or like
- Clean drawers and shelves before returning items
- Store heat- and moisture-sensitive items (medications and some skin-care products) away from the bathroom
Habit to cultivate: Keep a list of your favorite bath and beauty products and order them online rather than shopping in person. This helps avoid over-shopping, impulse purchases AND protects us from the spread of the Coronavirus.
May: Laundry room, linen closet, cleaning supplies. Cleaning routines are
much easier and more pleasant when the supplies you need are neat and
orderly. Sheets, towels and other household linens do not last forever — go
through them this month and make some space.
- Recycle worn-out and stained towels, washcloths, sheets and tea towels at a
- textile recycling center.
- If your child has graduated a bed size, donate the old bedding to charity
- Clean under sinks and in any cupboards where cleaning supplies are stored.
- Get rid of empty containers and products you tried but did not like
Habit to cultivate: Don’t downgrade old towels and sheets to “guest” status.
Only keep linens you would personally want to use — get rid of the rest.
June: Family room, playroom, media, art and schoolwork. The end of the
school year is a good time to review collected artwork and school papers, and
choose a small number of special pieces to save in a portfolio or document box.
- Edit schoolwork and art from the past year
- Gather a bag of DVDs, books and CDs to give away or sell
- Sort through toys and games; get rid of those your family no longer enjoys, as well as anything missing key pieces
Habit to cultivate: At the beginning of each school year, pick up a simple art portfolio. When your child or grandchild brings work home, enjoy all of it for a while, but choose only a few special pieces to put in the portfolio.

If that sounds appealing, read on to learn about 10 outstanding companies that are poised not just to survive, but thrive, during the pandemic -- and whose stocks can help you earn a fortune from the recent market downturn:
