This is quite surprising to me considering the current unemployment situation, and everything with the virus.

How can there still be a high as ever demand when we have high unemployment and a recession?

The Covid stimulus payment was the extra edge we needed to jump this May into a house we liked instead of having to worry about expenses beyond downpayment or waiting till lease was up this month On the old place.

And we offered over asking to get ours The day it was listed because it was the right house for us in the right neighborhood after losing out on two others. It’s Mostly a sellers market here in this neighborhood and has been for a while. The only ones still on the market are poor floor plans and overpriced. Anything good goes in a day or three.
Also it’s actually easier to apply now since you can turn in documents electronically etc instead of paper paper paper for days.
