I bet lots of mom & pop operations will be selling thanks to all the government changes.

From Danny- I personally believe the government will intervene in some way to either prevent this or mitigate it somehow. 

All I can say is our government today reminds me of my beloved Chicago Bears during the late 60's and 1970's. 

Established public sector base plus growing migration from Bay etc etc.

Three reasons: (1) the federal government is still in the driver's seat with Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac, so those mortgages will get deferred or worked out in some way; politicians got killed last time for the foreclosure rate, so they are not going to let it happen again and (2) the fundamental structure around loan origination is a million times better than it was in the run up to 2008; between 01 - 07 you did not need a license to originate a loan once Dodd-Frank passed and licensing became the standard a lot of bad loan officers got out of the business, and (3) Banks also tightened up their verification standards ( I know the standards are still relatively loose) but 4506T forms were not used between 01 - 07, so people lied about their income; after 2008, banks started to use 4506T forms to verify tax returns. 

@Gitit Hefetz, Another colleague on BP recommended I check out this website, when I too, asked about ADUs (Accessory Dwelling Units): https://maxablespace.com/Like what DJ said above - because of the housing shortage, the government has been a lot more lenient and has actually been pushing for the creation of these detached or attached ADUs in properties.

Lower rent and property taxes on commercial property, not to mention slightly lower cost of living and moving away from the tax-and-spend state and local governments here in NY, etc..

Interest rates are at an all time low...https://www.valuepenguin.com/mortgages/historical-mortgage-rates#:~:text=The%20mortgage%20rates%20trend%20continued,the%20history%20of%20mortgage%20rates.We have government throwing money at the economy with the stimulus bills and there is another round of stimulus being talked about. 

I have a unique situation where I may be medically retired from my government job due to an on the job injury (back surgery/nerve damage) I am still able to do physical things but may not be able to stay in the job based upon it's requirments (Law Enforcement).

All of this the government said for food and rent so people wouldn't be evicted.
