I could care less if the knifecatcher at 414 Camino Hermosa care that the value in April was 100K higher as he would never have been my client. My client would have been the seller who pocketed the extra $100,000 you jackass!
OCR made that prediction for about 18 months. If you make claims like that in a declining market eventually anyone will be proven right. The skill isnt picking a point that will be hit while a market is headed in an obvious direction it’s getting the timing right.
I have clients that bought in 2005 who arent underwater. I know what I’m doing and I do it well. Unfortunately the same cant be said for you who is now forced to subject his family to 120 degree heat in the Summer for the sake of employment. Hell, I’d move to Chi Town before the desert on a full time basis. There is only one loser here and its pretty apparent whom that is.
