I haven't posted in a while, though I've been a member since 2008. I remember this forum as it was one of my favorites in the aughts because I, along with most people who followed Patrick Killelea, believed the frothy real estate market was ready to burst.

I see most people here now post about politics and the Wuhan Flu. I'm in agreement with most here: I'm a former liberal who voted for Bill Clinton but I voted for Donald J. Trump in 2016 and in 2020.

Today the world is in crisis and real estate prices in the US are crazy high.

I have friends who have just put their homes on the market. And others, who should know better, who are awaiting real estate lotto to be 'able to purchase' homes in communities in Arizona and Florida. I don't think I've heard people speak about waiting in line to buy up a tract house in a gated community since 2006. What gives?
