Home Closings During the COVID-19 HEALTH CRISIS

by Michael H. Wasserman We are now four full weeks into the Illinois Stay-at-Home regimen. Hopefully, the last of winter’s snowfalls are finally behind us.

Lenders are still lending out (some) money, and Realtors are still out in the neighborhoods putting contracts together. The firm is still closing clients’ contracts.
