I am looking at what might be the most cost effective way to change the ownership of these two properties without an actual sale occurring. 

My wife and I have been investing in real estate for 10 years now, and we still disagree heavily on how much different aspects will effect value. 

So blanket action is probably not the most effective for anyone. 

If you think this won't effect real estate, i contend you are mistaken.

I would be after the bank NOW to get deferred payments while national emergency in effect!

(I’ve literally seen this in action and while it’s not necessarily illegal, it is however, extremely effective.)

PMs may do virtual showings through FaceTime or Skype, but these tend to not be quite as effective as setting foot in the property.

What we are seeing however is surprisingly little effect at this point.

He's that voice you can always rely on to give the Erie "East Side" view of the world.

As with any correction, lower income population will be disproportionately hard hit, and businesses servicing that demographic will be effected as well.I was working in retail real estate beginning in 2007, mutifamily will continue to be fine, necessity based retail (grocery stores) will be fine.
