In this episode, I’m breaking down exactly how a shutdown can impact homebuyers and sellers, especially here in Cherokee County and around Lake Tenkiller. I’ll walk you through what gets delayed, what keeps moving, and how to make sure your deal stays on track.

👉 Here’s what I cover:

Which loans are affected (FHA, VA, USDA) and which keep moving (conventional)

How appraisals, closings, and verifications can slow down — and how to plan for it

What local buyers and sellers can do right now to prepare

Why having a proactive lender and agent makes all the difference

Simple steps to keep your deal moving even when Washington isn’t

The bottom line? A government shutdown might slow things down — but it doesn’t stop real estate. With the right strategy (and the right team), your home goals can still move forward.
