If the low down payment mortgage product disappears for awhile, then the for-sale-market completely stalls. 

The most frustrating part are a couple have been contentious borrowers who have been riding the free gravy train for years and dragging these out with stall tactics. 

I had served him notice in order to rehab his unit then Co-Vid virus situation stalled things.

Set up a broom stick across some saw horses or similar.

Despite a number of news articles stating automatic 6 month + additional 6 upon borrower's request, I sifted through it briefly and could not find anything straight from the horses mouth.Here is a link to Fannie Mae's COVID-19 updates. 

@Brian Holshouser   I think the idea of an offer a week is to to keep moving and not stall out because you did not get a deal.   

But we get back up on the horse if we are to generate what we really want in life. 

He's putting the "cart before the horse" so to speak, where do you get this cash to put 100% down on an investment property when you're just starting off? 

But we'll have to wait and see what happens and how this stay at home order affects the local economy.The upper price-range of homes may feel the impact the hardest, as buyers and sellers of luxury homes are usually business owners with part of their portfolio tied up in other assets that are feeling a greater impact.The housing demand for the bread-and-butter price (sub $300k) should hopefully only be stalled or delayed, and ideally we'll see some pent up demand be unleashed in the summer and fall if things get back to normal. 

I have seen beautiful houses reduced to wrecks in only a few years with folks tearing out the inside wood to burn in the wood stove, cutting a hole in the bathroom wall so the horse could drink out of the bathtub, (in fairness he was drunk when he did it), piles of empty booze bottles almost as high as the junk cars.
