Teleworking is nothing new and is even quite common in other countries, as it offers some advantages over traditional work. For example, it can eliminate the need of having a physical office, freeing up space and resources, and open up the range of options when hiring employees, as there is no longer a geographical limitation. For the employees, it saves them trips and meals away from home, and the increase in daily comfort results in greater motivation and productivity. There has to be, of course, a relationship based on trust and communication between the worker and the company, which can be maintained by the numerous technological tools available today. 

What we have noticed at first sight is that while the stock market fell by 40%, the real estate market has simply frozen in the short term. This is due to longer periods of business or simply to the transaction of the real estate: it is common for a visit to the property to sometimes take a few days or weeks to be scheduled, however consultations and exchange of information, requests for credit and finally scheduling a notary. All this takes time and as such the property is not as vulnerable to peaks and troughs as the stock market.
