66,000…Yelp just released a study and said 66,000 businesses may not reopen after things get back to “normal” and Harvard just released a study themselves and they said 110,000 businesses may not reopen after we get back to our new normal. Pretty staggering numbers as small businesses are the lifeblood of our economic engine. But there is a lot of variables going into this and the housing market even with those very dire numbers still look incredibly good long term for us. . It goes back to simple economics and it goes back to supply and demand. There is an amazing amount more demand in our market for homes then there is supply and were just not building fast enough in really any of our neighborhoods, communities, areas or anywhere that we live.
