Still going up in ATL, but at a much slower rate.

Anybody have any information on Oregon? I have a friend who repo's houses for banks (ie shows up, throws you out, and changes the locks). Every time I talk to him, business seems to be booming.

Factors that I think will affect Oregon housing in the near future:

1. Oregon has passed the first in nation "Statewide Rent Control" - or it should be law in the coming few days.
2. The issue of the SALT tax deduction loss with the Trump plan. Something tells me that Oregon will be affected, considering we have a 9.9% state tax rate.
3. A statewide $15/hour minimum wage. Not as great a factor as 1 or 2, but still, I think it will factor in somehow.

There's been so many changes/laws enacted in the last year or so, I must say I am quite curious to see what happens. The thing is, I don't know exactly what. From an economics standpoint, overall, I think ALL 3 factors are negative. But again, I just don't know exactly what will happen.

Anybody have any input?

“IPO is one part of the equation” ... Rin loves hoes and Rin is rich therefore one should bang hoes to get rich.

It’s called magical thinking.

The number of IPO is causal in real estate? I don’t see it. The stock market is a completely managed and manipulated market these days anyways and has very little bearing on the economy aside from propping up pensions a little while longer.

San Diego popped, almost on cue.

And no, we did not miss it. I called it last year when I saw the State of California starting their foreclosure bailout nonsense again, where Pedro can get up to $100,000 to save his home.

Stop inverting Rin Wah Law.

Rin Wah Law is to motivate one to become rich, so that one can regularly bonk hoes.

In that spectrum, there are the newbies who can only afford a realistic sex doll. That's step one because it saves a ton of money on dating. And then, one can work on step 2 and 3.

Then, there are the up and comers, who can see hoes but not so frequently. For these ppl, living near a Canadian border town, so that when one is away from work, one can make the drive for a boink more convenient. This is why I wanted a corporate HQ in Ann Arbor Michigan because Windsor Ontario is a stone's throw away.

Who Wins in a long-drawn-out gradual Housing Bust?

It always boils down to this: Regardless of how thin you cut a slice of bologna, there are always two sides to it. When home prices drop after a housing bubble, there are many losers. But here are the winners – including a whole generation (11 minutes).
