Hello,  
Does anybody know why this fiddle leaf fig keeps loosing the lower leaves?  
I recently repotted it with more fresh soil and changed its location.

I’m also not sure but it looks like a fungal infection to me?

I think your plant is stressed from all the sudden changes to its conditions. Especially if you repotted and moved them in the same breath basically. Just give them time to adjust to their new spot and don’t mess with them for a while unless you are fertilizing them with water and basic necessities, maybe a little rinse for the leaves or wiping them down with a cloth could help it bounce back and transperate more easily.
