One of my daughters is having a house built, it's supposed to be ready in August. Her contract says she has to have her current home on the market by June 1st. They were going to move in here in May 1 (when she goes back to work from maternity leave and I was supposed to watch her kids). We've not been seeing our grandkids and the plan was to move in with us. Then they were going to fix the house up to get it on the market. So many balls in the air! She may stay in her home longer and is trying to get the June 1 date out of the contract. Even though I didn't see realtors as essential on the site someone posted earlier, I thought they were in Nebraska. Then again, we are one of the few states that don't have a stay-at-home rule in place (but guessing there will be one very soon) so maybe we don't have to declare things essential, yet?
It's over my head if it'll be a good thing or a bad thing (to have bought a house but still need to sell the old one). My gut is saying probably not the best, but I think they'll be okay (should at least get a good interest rate on the new one). The current one is a starter home, so hopefully still a market for them. I'd like to do whatever we can to help them get it on the market asap, but have to weigh the coronavirus risks. We'll see!
My step mother was out of sanitary wipes (she's 88). I took some to her (she's 45 miles away) because there is no way she'll ever be up at 7am to go shopping. And, yes, I realize she shouldn't be shopping at all, but she won't stop.
I realize everyone has unique situations. A lot of hardship for a lot people. Sure hope we see the curve flatten soon. Hopeful the antibody testing will be available soon, I think that will help, too. And hopefully finally doing more testing (although Nebraska is till way behind). But I do think until a vaccine is available, life is going to very different for all of us.
