With emergency orders, moratoriums, healthcare guidelines, and sporadic closures, getting to the closing table is no longer a simple process. Covid-19 and the laws and regulations that have emerged are new territory for everyone – especially in real estate. Learn about the new and evolving real estate closing landscape and how to facilitate the real estate acquisition and closing process during a pandemic. Let’s explore how historically low interest rates and heightened demand for real estate affect our industry. Listen to our experts discuss how clerks and courts are handling the influx of submissions while there is limited staff and office hours.
