    Here is a Sign – Funny- Part 2

    About 1 year ago, I’ve started this “here is a RE bubble sign” that was meant to cheer and make us laugh at funny signs of the RE bubble. Since there are many new piggingtonians that are signed up, I’d figure you could take this up a notch:

    Please add your own “here is RE bubble sign” RE joke(s):

    1)When you refinance your house from the brokerage add from the entrance/exist of the freeway….HERE IS A BUBBLE SIGN

    2)When your first mortgage company is not longer in business, and you read the news that now your current loan company is being de-listed from the trade floor……HERE IS A SIGN

    3)When you notice that most Craig’s list adds mention “motivate sellers”…..HERE IS A SIGN

    4)When the main media depicts a RE horror story everyday, and your neighbor’s still hoping to refinance his house to pay his newly purchased V10 truck……..HERE IS A SIGN

    5)When your coworkers spend 2 hours/week with their lending institution to understand why the mortgage is going up…….HERE IS A SIGN

    6)When RE investing / brokers offices are in every single shopping center….HERE IS A SIGN

    7)When NAR is finally coming back to say that the weather lead to the temporary RE negative trend….HERE IS A SIGN

    8)When David Lereah opens his mouth & publishes a book…….THERE ARE WAYY TOO MANYYY SIGNS

    9)When Casey Serin (the Sacramento wonder kid) is red-lining the majority of his so called “RE portfolio” to foreclosure(s)….HERE IS A SIGN

    10)When regular people start reading more piggington and other RE blogs because the main media, economic analysts, RE researchers could not properly forecast this obvious RE mania trend a year ago….HERE IS A SIGN

    PLEASE CONTINUE & KEEP THIS UP 🙂

    15) When the gas price increases for your hummer are closely related to your new ARM payments in ratio…You wonder why you even "try" to go to work…A 100% increase in your pay wouldn't even cover it…..and you know thats not in the cards
