Hello Roy, once again you are great at your flower pictures.  I am nt sure I can start showing homes on Saturday but undecided if I want to take the chance.  A little depress also.

Hello Roy - both the announcement and the comments show a certain "pulse" that is noticed in our country at this time.  It's definitely one that will be shown in our future history books.

The map of Maryland and the counties with their confirmed case counts is very interesting. My niece is living in Montgomery county, working at NIH. I pray for her every day as she's there on a contract job living with a roommate. Far from family. Here in Florida, in Hillsborough county (Tampa) they have opened up testing to everyone who wants it. Residents call in to get an appointment and then go to one of several drive through sites in the county to get tested. Our numbers are quite a bit lower than Montgomery county - confirmed cases today in Hillsborough county - 1324, with 32 deaths. For Pinellas county (St. Petersburg, Clearwater) 788 confirmed cases, 44 deaths.

Still being cautious about showing homes. Have one owner occupied listing where the seller decided to go live last week.  I have to accompany visitors, everyone wears a mask and gloves and signs the Florida Realtors In Person Coronavirus acknowledgement. And they have to provide POF or pre-approval or no showing... 

How are you handling these in your area?
