At the time he made the prediction there were “a number of prominent real estate professionals who pooh-poohed the idea”

Another interesting part of the article is that the average rent in Santa Clara County in 1997 was $1,202 about 16% over the previous year’s rents

According to this 2010 article, the average rent in the Santa Clara area is $1,484 down 11.6% from the previous year.

Rents increased by 1.6% per year over the entire 13 year period, well below the rate of inflation.
