this is just like everything else totally unprecedented .. its like a nuclear war has started or a Meteor hit the mid west and threw us into perpetual winter.   

Right now I'm trying to maintain a holding pattern on everything and if I were in your shoes, I think I'd cancel and see if the seller is willing to either refund the EM, or perhaps use it as credit if you resume the purchase down the road. 

If not, follow eviction process and get your ticket in line to evict when Sheriff’s office resumes them.

We will put together a payment plan to get caught up when their employment resumes. 

You could offer them a 20 day contract extension where you can resume showing the property to new prospective buyers.  

Hopefully this is ample time to allow people to resume to work and is very generous.

This are a has other industries ( tourism, nuclear energy, and potash) but I want to diversify for sure.

I guess the silver lining is that many of these lenders expect it to resume as quickly as it disappeared if and when market conditions stabilize from Corona.  

Lenders will usually charge anywhere from 2-4 points depending on your credit, # of deals done ect (think of it like a resume).

as I understand it, all of the JP courts (assuming Harris county here) are not making a judgement on or serving any notices for evictions, so even if you tried, there would be no procedural movement forward anyways... at least until they resume that function.
