South FL Realtors seeing influx of buyers from NYC, other large cities amid Covid-19

"DUE TO CORONA VIRUS. LARGE CITIES HAVE TAKEN A HARD HIT DURING THIS PANDEMIC, BUT SOUTH FL REALTORS ARE BUSY AS EVER. ONE STATED "EVERYONE IS CALLING - EVERYONE IS CALLING FROM THOSE BIGGER CITIES SAYING WOW, HOW CAN WE BUY THESE $300,000 HOMES AND REALLY HAVE MORE PROPERTY AND MORE SAFETY? THERE IS A LOT OF PEOPLE MOVING FROM THESE BIG CITIES -- NEW YORK, BOSTON, NEW JERSEY -- WHERE COVID IS REALLY SERIOUS BECAUSE THERE IS A LOT OF PEOPLE AND A VERY CONDENSED AREA. SO WHAT WE’VE SEEN IS THOSE PEOPLE REACHING OUT TO SEE IF THEY CAN GET A CHEAPER PRICED HOME, OR SOMETHING WITH A LITTLE MORE LAND, WHERE THEY CAN BE A LITTLE MORE COMFORTABLE THAN IN THEIR SHOEBOX APARTMENT IN MIDTOWN MANHATTAN."
