I love these boards. Heard about it on CL, and lurked for awhile, a bit intimidated by some of the complex postings. I already owned a house, but have always monitored the housing market.
What I found here, was a whole bunch of smart folks, and mostly critical thinkers, even when their thoughts and ideas differ. People that seemed to be able to discern between what is fed to us by media and what is actually true.
I was on here about a year, and ended up quite accidentally meeting my BF. Yeah! Who would have thought?
