desmond, Bob Casagrand is one of the best realtors out there. I have posted about him often. He is the only realtor in San Diego who provides this level of data analysis of the MLS for the benefit of us all.
I used to post his monthly reports, and other information he conveyed to me. Bob is like a Rich with MLS access, and he spends several days every month putting the MLS data in to Excel, and analyzing it and posting the monthly reports. He is the contact person for one of the major brokerages’ retail analysts (from New York). They call him to get the San Diego housing market updates.
Unfortunately, because of someone’s name calling of Bob as you saw above, I decided I couldn’t post Bob’s comments here any longer. That one person kept picking on Bob, hiding behind his anonymity, making pot shots for no reason, other than envy and jealousy. I for one still converse with Bob, so I get a lot of info that I cannot post here, that I have to keep to myself. It’s a real shame… So as long as these low shots continue, I cannot share this information, and Bob will not participate in any forums where people hide behind their anonymity.
I am embarrased to be part of a group that allows name calling and just looks the other way. sdr’s behavior, making fun of a collegue’s name, is horrendous. It’s an embarassment to the profession, to this forum, and it keeps good people like Bob from wanting anything to do with us. It’s a real shame.
