Here is my 25th update video on the state of affairs in Eastham and what it means to local real estate.

I plan to publish an update video each week until we get the 'all clear'. Hopefully this won't be too much longer.

The State's re-opening process remains 'On Hold'. After 9 weeks in Phase 3 we have no indication that we'll get to Phase 4 (the 'new' normal) any time soon. The State's Travel Order website, supporting the new (8/1) travel restrictions keeps track of the 'Good' vs 'Bad' states. New 'Good' states are Wyoming, Oregon, and Washington State. Interestingly, Rhode Island remains on the 'Bad' list. The Travel Order website is HERE. I question the practical nature of having some far-away states on the list since I doubt that there are direct flights from Boston to anywhere in Wyoming (for example). .

Below is Gov Baker's chart, redrawn (again) so we can track our progress. I'll try to maintain this chart so that the key dates remain front and center. The Governor has said that Phase 3 will be 'substantially' longer than the prior phases. The chart below is my tracking of our progress. Check out the full list at 'Reopening Massachusetts'.
