I'm interested in hearing everyone's opinion on whether they believe the US foreclosure/REO supply will increase after COVID due to the combination of the careless use of forbearance during COVID + tenants not paying rent + overall unemployment rates?

Less demand for equal supply means lower rent prices.

In this case, that means following supply and demand levels.

Most people can't get into real estate without having a full time job that first supplies the funds to be able to afford a house.

Provide a curtain rod that they can put their own curtains up (or supply some cheap ones from a  thrift store).

Rankings are based on Demand Drivers, Economic Health, and Supply/Demand KPI's.

As long as the supply and demand remain at the same levels in this market then the prices will remain stable.News media has the ability to affect the mind of the buyers and if they hold back because of news then the declines can occur.

I am trying to locate a service that supplies you a phone number that can be called with an auto-voicemail attached.

"I fairly, and in good faith offered to pay 2 months rent (over 50K) to a landlord for a place I was never going to step foot in due to a global pandemic that took a severe toll upon the residents of NYC, gave timely notice to attempt to try and re-rent, while getting TJ and now living in Florida for rehab, and the landlord tries to extort me for 250K while leaking this story to the media, and I'm the bad guy?

We will be pre-screening future potential tenants via a Google Form, an idea we found here on the forums and have already put into action.The potential tenants are a younger couple, are "very interested" in the unit, applied to our listing on Cozy within an hour of viewing the unit and each purchased the credit & background checks as well.The couple currently live separately from one another and they're now looking for a place together.Brief background on the girl:- Non-smoker- Monthly income meets the 3x rent requirement- Background check looks clean (SSN Trace, Civil, Sex Offender, Global Watchlist, National - all are Clear)- Credit score meets the 620 requirement- Credit report looks okay with the majority of her lines of credit showing as currentBrief background on the guy:- Non-smoker- Currently unemployed due to the coronavirus situation- Background check looks clean (SSN Trace, Civil, Sex Offender, Global Watchlist, National - all are Clear)- Credit score does not meet the 620 requirement- Credit report looks horrible (no lines of credit are current, and plenty are in collections)Our thoughts & concerns at this point, and I'm trying to place weight on those where we should and lessen the weight where we shouldn't:-The girl seems to be friendly & polite, her parent's live nearby, and her credit/background checks indicate that she's relatively financially responsible.
