But his insight into branding and advertising is high level. His company Bold Media Marketing helps all types of businesses with website design, social campaigns and advertising. Without getting bogged down in details and knowing each business has a different need, Haitham broke down some Google, Facebook, Instagram, Snap and TikTok basics.

Becky joins us to talk about lending in April 2020. What are lending practices looking like today, how have they changed from even a month ago, are rates higher or lower because of the COVID-19 pandemic, and is it any different trying to close a loan for somebody now versus before. She also shares a great story where a buyer had an appraisal issue on a purchase, the appraiser would not go back to the home during the COVID-19 outbreak, the buyer became virtually homeless and started living in a hotel and how that turned out. Of course, a little bit of fun along the way and some strong going away words of hope for our future.

(Note: Show changed from Brokers & Brews to Cup of Joe.) Real estate simply can not happen without title work. It was only fitting our debut episode starts off with a preferred title person to talk about how COVID-19 has impacted the workplace, will it change forever, and how title companies are going digital. Oh, and Sarah brings an Old Fashioned for her "brew" of choice and Joe brought a Bell's Two Hearted. The conversation is candid and informative about how title work and real estate are occurring in April 2020.
