For things to get back to normal: - everyone in the world (not just the US) will need to see their earning capacity completely restored - consumer balance sheets will need built up again -all of the lost productivity in the manufacturing sector will need to be restored-consumers sentiment will need to return to all time highs-governments (federal, state and local) will need to come to terms with trillions of new debt and massive budget short falls. this will be a big issue for states and localities that are already flirting with default (see Illinois)-pension funds will need replenished-corporations will need to deal with serious damage to balance sheets and return to net spending on R&D and capital outlays (the energy sector might be the biggest issue here). corporate debt was already at or near all time highs for several sectors prior to the crisis- Both national and local economies will need to see a return of animal spirits to the pre-crisis highs from both local business owner and in the tech industry.

On the other hand market booms and busts are real, and investors like Warren Buffet and George Soros have historically beaten the market. 

We aren't a large multinational corporation with massive reserves and big cushions to fall back on, but we are human beings that have empathy for a situation that no one alive has ever been through.We are keeping our eyes on programs that the government is designing to help individuals, especially tenants, to get through these hardships.

Now that was before this disaster and being this is my first time trying to buying a home, I don't want to take a massive lost. 

I’m a massive control freak with the skills to do the work myself so I probably wouldn’t hire it out

In addition, you have the massive challenge of finding a contractor who not only bids the project, but follows through on that budget both from a timing and cost perspective (much easier said than done).

This is a massive expansion of the Pro and Premium memberships, and we’re very excited to share it with you.All that being said, this is not exactly how we planned to launch BPInsights.
