Alright here is my take from a body language perspective. Number 1, I did not see any steamroller, Rich held up well. Number 2, Lee Sterling is a professional realtor (sales guy), this guy is doing what he gets paid to do – Sell. Professional sales is my chosen profession so I guess I can say, it takes one to know one. Rich is coming from a fiancial/economist background that deals with actual numbers and analysis that translates well on a forum such as this blog. I guess I would say that Lee had a better command of his presentation but come on the guy is a professional realtor. There was nothing that Lee said that remotely changed my view on the current state of California RE but I have also done my due diligence. My suggestion to Rich is to keep in mind that you are persuading viewers to look at the current RE differently than what is being touted by the RE industry and much of the media. All Rich needs to do is raise reasonable doubt which I think he did a reasonable job on this show.
