I went to Redfin to check what was available. I could not even find one condo for sale at this large complex.

That zero hedge web site has zero truth and zero credibility. It's for suckers.

just because there is no MLSlistings/Redfin doesnt mean there is no inventory.
pocket listings (unlisted ) inventory is a common now days..

Interesting enough chicago has made pocket listings illegal.

The scheme worked like this: clients would turn over their stocks to Chapman as collateral for a loan, and Chapman would let customers borrow about 90 percent of the stocks' value.

If the stocks did badly, borrowers could walk away and keep the money they were loaned. But if the borrowers' stocks did well, they would repay the loan with interest, and Chapman was supposed to return the stocks to the investor at their increased value.

This is obviously a tax evasion scheme. So the fucker was doing this while ranting about "rich not paying their fair share" from every perch. What a slimy piece of shit.

Home Sale Prices In Las Vegas Drop
Realtors Association "Not Worried"
December 10, 2013 8:41 AM

The latest numbers from the Greater Las Vegas Association of Realtors show a 1.1% dip from October to November where the average price tag on a house was $183,000.

Total home sales dropped from October to November as well as year-over-year.

The month-to-month drop was 16.2% with just over 2200 homes sold last month. That’s a 17.9% slide compared to November of last year.

Whole lotta people have falsely accused this poor man, for many years: niece, cops, co-workers, police, ex-fiancé, ex-wife, girlfriend.

They must have known he was going to be famous some day, so they falsely accused him to grab some for themselves.

40254   waiting_for_the_fall   2013 Dec 11, 1:23pm  

Redfin, which has a more accurate count, shows 2905 homes listed for sale (not including land).
The properties listed for sale do not include cloud inventory: homes held off the market by banks, waiting for prices to rise or homes that underwater borrows can't sell.

I don't know what the total would be if all vacant homes were put on the market and am not sure where you could get that information. There is no central database that includes all of that information...yet.

But I severely disapprove of false accusation of domestic violence or any other crime

Yet, there were many people here that had him convicted of it and put away for 100 years when that story first broke in the media....

I wonder what they will say now???

Not only that, even if there was anything to it, it's completely irrelevant. How anyone could focus on GZ trying to follow and convict him with such fervor and for so long is completely bananas.

40258   upisdown   2013 Dec 11, 7:48pm  

Too funny, just like Sarah Palin, Zimmerman is a victim and 'misunderstood'.

GZ is a POS bully who will continue to display the same type of behavior that he has up until now. FYI, just because the gf wants the charges dropped, doens't mean that the state will. Judges get pretty pissed about listening to a petition for an OP from some woman, only to have the summons served on the male at her residence, and then come to court WITH the male to tell the judge to drop the OP. Not only that, it's a violation of the OP, just as her retracting(or admitting to giving a false statement to the police/investigating agency)her previous complaint. The state charges, and the state decides whether to prosecute, or not.

Shitbag-abusers like Zimmerman attract and prey upon weak people/women that allow the abuse to continue, or outright blame themselves for their own abuse.

Ahem, and I quote myself:

http://patrick.net/?p=1234352&c=1026966#comment-1026966

I'm not convinced at the moment that Zimmerman is guilty of domestic violence. The whole case seems a bit fishy.

And this from a guy that is quite convinced that Zimmerman murdered Trayvon Martin.

I never in a million years would have thought I would be defending George Zimmerman. But I severely disapprove of false accusation of domestic violence or any other crime.

Now, if only the authorities could find some new evidence against Zimmerman in the Trayvon Martin case, at least there could be a civil case against him.

Before you knock yourself over patting yourself on the back, consider that it is very common for woman to get cold feet when accusing their boyfriends.

I don't know what happened, but I don't think her decision not to prosecute is an indication that he's innocent..

40261   FuckTheMainstreamMedia   2013 Dec 11, 9:26pm  

People STILL continue to make facts up regarding this guy. Good lord, he's been investigated by local and federal agencies, found not guilty in court, had it confirmed that witnesses against him are lying, and yet he still walks as a free man.

He must be some crazy criminal genius to keep outsmarting all these people and getting away with murder and DV.

40265   HydroCabron   2013 Dec 11, 11:14pm  

If Zimmermann is convicted, companies will just pass the cost onto consumers, and we'll all end up paying more for products.

40266   Y   2013 Dec 11, 11:14pm  

Given the amount of forum capital expended on proving george guilty in the trayvon case, only to be proven wrong about his guilt, it's become a lifelong trek for these folks to try to salvage whatever is left of their online reputation.

That was for killing T Martin. And if he "still walks as a free man" it's because he posted bond, and he was charged with a felony and was awaiting trial.

Were the charges against GZ dropped? I really don't know but it seems that every right winger has GZ as priority 1 in their life, including you.

How can that be possible with a rising population?

Because population doesn't rise evenly. "Boom"
Besides, it's hard to get excited about rising population as a driver of demand. That has been happening for a long time which would suggest unchanging demand and is only slowing down in recent decades.

40277   Strategist   2013 Dec 12, 11:25am  

What a bull. I could hope for nothing more.
Real Estate is in full recovery mode. With inventories falling at a rapid pace prices of homes can only go up. How high they jump will probably be determined by loan availability.
Home builder stocks in my opinion will outperform home price increases.

I personally believe our standard of living will keep getting better over the decades, and the average consumer will have a much higher purchasing power, benefiting real estate the most.

That assessment is fundamentally flawed. Wages will decline for years to even the playing field internationally. And if property does not fall in the same way at the same rate, most people will be royally screwed.

That assessment may not be correct. The "leveling" may have already taken place, and is about to flow backwards. The very high real estate prices in India and China make it highly unlikely that their wages can stay low for long, and they have been experiencing double-digit annual wage increases in recent years. There is transportation cost and management overhead associated with outsourcing.

boomers have to live some where. they aren't going to move out of their big houses and live in their cars.

prices for small homes will go up. rents will go up and drive prices for small homes to go up even more.

btw, they like warm weather so buy in CA, FL, and AZ.

Prices for retirement villages, group homes, and assisted living will go up, way up.Most people retire to protected gated communities with amenities and services, not ordinary houses in towns. Look at south jersey or south florida (pre insanity and crash). The retirees barely affect the house prices outside the gates. Invest big in companies providing for seniors.

You forgot Texas, one of the larger retiree states.

The leveling will continue. The huge multinational corporations will be arbitraging the cost of labor forever. China and India will simply lose out to the next place that provides the lowest cost Tons of manufacturing is moving to Vietnam right now. Watch for Burma to be next if the government there truly stabilizes with parts of Africa in the on deck circle. There's always someone poorer and more desperate.
