How are things?

Hope this update finds you well. First, let’s make sure you are okay. We will get through this. I guarantee it! I’ve been through the 2008-09 US subprime mortgage crisis, the SARS 2002 crisis, and the 1990 real estate collapse. We recovered from all of those terrible times and we will recover from this. I am here to help you in any way possible. Don’t hesitate to call on me for assistance.

The government has been announcing new programs to provide financial assistance almost daily. And there have been just as many amendments to those programs as they work to fine tune the programs.

I want to make sure you are informed with accurate info. There’s been so much junk articles posted in the mainstream and social media outlets. Let’s block out that junk and focus on reality.
