Looking for safe and fun Halloween ideas during the covid-19 pandemic? Consider some of these:
Host A Virtual Costume Party
Get your costume on and invite your friends! A virtual costume party using one of many popular video chat apps would be fun and safe for all. Play a game or have a dance party, lip-sync contest, or joke contest.
Set up a Candy Graveyard Hunt
Like Easter but instead of eggs hide CANDY! Deck your yard out with Halloween décor and let the kids explore for that special treat.
Trunk-or-Treat with Neighbors
Let the kids go trick-or-treating from car to car within your eyesight. Allowing them to safely exchange candy with people you know. Also include a “Best Trunk Decoration Contest” for a family to win bragging rights for the entire year.

1. Blocks lenders from starting the foreclosure proceedings for at least 60 days (started March 18th).

The types of forbearance available vary by loan type. If your mortgage is backed by the federal government—this includes FHA, VA, USDA, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac loans.

The current housing market and impact of the Coronavirus. Let's take a look at some major indicators and the history of those indicators.
Mortgage Interest Rates - Rates are at an all-time low. Which allows for a greater purchasing power or a lower monthly payment.
Stock Market - During past viral emergencies, the stock market has reacted. Over time the stock market has recovered. The fundamentals of the economy were strong with low unemployment prior to the virus concerns.
Recent Recessions - The coronavirus has created an economic slowdown and recession concerns. Over the last 5 recessions the housing market was only negatively affected twice. This slow down is not caused by the housing market.
