Since the virus hit last year in March, I having been performing 40 + signing a month (10+ a week). I considered that my maximum activity due to my rural area and that I'm one man business.
This March I performed 41 signing, but in April I did 21 - slowing down throughout the month. Last week I did 2 (TWO) which I considered almost crazy slow. Business has just suddenly just fallen off the table here in Oregon. The signing services have discovered this also, so fees are dropping too.
Luckily, I have other income and working spouse so no pain here, just extra fee time. I suspect that everyone that wanted to refinance has already. Real Estate transactions are slowed by lack of inventory.
The party is over and we need to adjust to a new normal and, market and market again instead of turning down offer after offer like I've been doing for the past year.
