We are booked over 2 months out right now, and all houses are empty (lucky as hell), but I haven't been receiving as many quote calls. I don't think people want strangers coming into their house, and they really don't want their house tore up when they are stuck at home.

If this is still going strong into May it will suck. I have plenty saved up, but the summer months are when I really make a lot of strides forward.

i'm lucky ive got a couple weeks sitting here. the phone hasnt hardly rang in a week. 2 other shops in town have just closed for now...

SBA has stated repeatedly "the sooner the better."

Asking for $25K each to keep under the collateral threshold. We have 4 applications to submit. GREAT! :(

I contacted my banker to ask about info on it. She says they're still waiting.

So is this the 25k that is forgiven?

is it better to apply directly through the SBA or your local bank after this bill passes?

She said that local banks aren't doing this yet, but no one seems to really know anything.

The money is coming directly from the SBA for the EIDL loan. No banks.

the SBA states they expect the loans to be serviced.

However, several talking heads have stated they expect the loans to be forgiven. The problem is then the student loan forgiveness issue is raised.

Damn, I might go get a loan and build a steel building.

Either way it's low interest, and if it's forgiven that's gravy.

You have to fall within a declared disaster area for EIDL. They might declare the entire US as a disaster area.

kansas and missouri are both in it.


but during the presser yesterday they specifically said to go to your local bank and they should be able to service and pay out most loans in the same day by the end of next week or the beginning of the week after

Still paying employees. We will see how this shakes out with the money.Hoping we can get back to work sooner rather than later. We can do a lot from home.
