Long story short: Fannie Mae, about two weeks ago, had allowed for certain types of loans that would normally require an interior inspection/appraisal to switch over to Exterior inspections while providing some Modified SCopes of Work to appraisers to limit their liability.

By the time they figured out exactly what they wanted and how they wanted loans to go through and appraisers to perform appraisers...

They have now reversed course and are requiring interior inspections on loans.

And people/locals in my community are still getting sick and dying.

Fuck this shit.
i had an appraiser come by this past Fri for a refi. Super nice lady - she said she was trying to convince them to allow an exterior. But no luck. So I opened every interior door so she wouldnt have to, and left the house unlocked and went to a friend’s backyard (sans the friends) so she could walk through solo
yea that is the best we can hope for right now. Im also wearing latex gloves and a mask while doing it.

Add Massachusetts to this list. Governors on the west coast also forming a regional task force to plan their reopening. So Trump can (and will) say what he wants, but it's clear that the leadership & decision making is occurring at the state government level.

What if all the states got together to form a union that could help solve problems that are too big for one state?
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Wait, so, the states who have lost the most people to the virus to date don’t like the federal response so they’re going to form a cabal to decide how to govern themselves and form a plan to restart.

This could get interesting.

they need a montage!

a 'governors solving coronavirus pandemic' montage!

all the governors get together on zoom!

stay up late and order chinese food!

all the interns working hard to get the job done, while coping with their angsty youth problems, but then relating to one another and falling in love!

scratching their heads and then eureka! we did it! we figured it out!

just keep the old people and poor people locked indoors

Isn’t this basically what Trump wanted in the first place? The states to be responsible for dealing with the pandemic?

I think he wants them to be responsible for things that don't go well, is all.
