I know one thing with great certaintity:
Rich has potentially saved me and the Mrs. a boat load of money. I say this not because I am delusional about timing the market and hoping to buy at the bottom but rather I am now much more informed and thus less likely to fall victim to toxic financing and/or overbidding for an overvalued home.
The Net is chock full of real estate bubble blogs but very few of them actually inform, inspire, and make the real estate industry sweat the way The Econo-Almanac does for the San Diego area. Your day will come shortly, Professor, when your work hits the mainstream. only then will you truly make the Learah’s of the real estate industry sweat. Actually, Learah IS the industry….but I digress. It’s kinda’ prohpetic when you consider that the national media views the San Diego real estate market as the proverbial canary in a coal mine and the Professor was the first to say (with unbiased, objective data to boot!) “Hey, this canary is coughing up blood!”
I would like to add one last thing:
if you don’t like Poway posting so much, then by all means step up and post to the forums!!
